Beppe Grillo's Blog: The half sermon on the Mount

The half sermon on the Mount

The weak in Italy are used as guinea pigs. Any bad that can happen, happens to them first. Usually only to them. They are the guinea pigs of our society. The canaries used in the mines to avoid firedamp
accidents.
The weak live near incinerators. The weak have their public housing removed from them by delinquents. The weak can never allow themselves to disobey the law. The weak don't know lawyers.
The weak are the first to be robbed by fictitious gas inspectors. By the offers of the financiers of the "never-never". If a delinquent is freed thanks to the pardon, he is certainly a neighbour of a weak person.
The weak cannot get sick, they would die. They drink water that's chlorinated, breathe PM10, have the central heating turned off. The weak are usually honest people. They respect the institutions. That's why they are not respected.
Every good law needs a period of experimentation. The weak have this social function.
It's a meritocracy and they preserve the stronger classes from undesirable consequences. A cut to pensions, a new ticket for health services, the Biagi law, a pardon, will they produce social reactions?
The weak are here for this. If they survive, well then you can do it. To the weak our eternal recognition goes. To the weak I want to dedicate a proto evangelic sermon. More proto than evangelic.

The half sermon on the Mount.
"Blessed are the weak, because for them there are the outer suburbs.
Blessed are the weak, because they will be consoled by Previti.
Blessed are the weak, because they will inherit the debts of their parents.
Blessed are the weak that hunger and thirst for injustice because they will have their fill.
Blessed are the weak, because they will find the pusher just outside the house.
Blessed are the weak, because they will see State television.
Blessed are the weak, because they will be called populists.
Blessed are those who are weak because of the justice system because theirs is the reign of Regina Coeli. {Queen of the Skies prison}.
Blessed are you who are weak when they insult you, they persecute you, and lying they say that you are demagogues for my sake.
Be happy and rejoice because great is your social function: that of getting kicked in the backside."

I watched the video Litvinenko e Prodi. It seemed to be very interesting but unfortunately I can not understand Italian language. Could some one please give a short reference what they were talking about.

Abe:

If we don't start to reset, soon you will see a lot of Italians moving to Africa to escape the regime of those criminals.

I live in Africa where people are getting a hard time by the system in their day to day life for the interest of those who "NEED IT".
You think those people would really want that to happen...it is just that they can not do anything about it and they accept the system just the way it is.. maybe some other people would say why do they accept the system?
I will leave that to you,let me just say
" IT IS NOT EASY"

Great Sermon Mr Grillo

Blessed are you who are weak when they insult you, they persecute you, and lying they say that you are demagogues for my sake.

Now how many situations globally can we attach to the above phrase

On the mountain of hipocrisy .........

Now read this comment from

Battle for Hegemony

In today’s unipolar world, most countries concede the strength of the US muscle and try to link their national interests with those of America. Protecting, promoting and advancing US national interests have, therefore, become part of the national interest of every country in today’s world. The long-term goal of US diplomacy includes taking full control of all global resources, including energy. This has fueled regional tensions. For this reason, America’s chief foreign policy objective is to deal sternly with those who want to control their resources. They are perceived as “threats” and demonized. That is why, after Iraq, Iran has become “the evil” that threatens US interests

Nicely done, Beppe!

I hope you revisit this posting later on with more links -- it deserves a page of its own with an example news story linked from nearly every line.
