I understand you do not want to waste your time on things that do seem productive, and that is sensible.
I was just listening to a debate on our dear old CBC about putting stickers on civic vehicles that say "Support our Troops", and I was reminded of the emotional impact of such a meaningless phrase. Of course it would be hard to find anyone who did not support the troops. The problem is that the people who do not support the wars can be branded as unpatriotic, cause they don't "support the troops".
The emotional response of people is easily manipulated, and I still think this is where you can get the biggest bang for your buck. If people knew that they had been misled by their government, and that there was negligence or even complicity that had allowed 911 to occur, this could wake the slumbering giant of public opinion.
I sent you the wrong link in another post, but hope that you will still take a look, if you haven't already. 911 is the key issue to sway public opinion, and to get your nation back on track. Your objective commentary, after a review of the evidence, would be very worthwhile. Hope you will take the time. Try www.wtc7.net for a brief introduction to the facts.
