wallpaper Anti Iraq war protesters - The March of the Dead

wallpaper wallpaper

Try searching "anti war protests" and you will see that the results are not at the mainstream media, they are at anti war activists sites and some blogs.

This is a strategy to tell people that there is nothing to be done and nobody cares. Many people are not silent and many are deeply concerned and I have posted about February, 15 2003 anti-invasion protest.

In March, 18 2008 protesters blocked the traffic and government buildings in Washington to mark the fifth anniversary of the Iraq war.

A group of protesters did "The March of the Dead" to symbolize the death of civilians and military people.

More pictures of the protest here.

"Far from the eyes of the people." Ironic: "weapons of mass destruction" are being used in Iraq.

Left: "The Albert Einstein Memorial in Washington's National Mall neighborhood is one of the most instantly recognizable landmarks in Washington DC. Measuring 12 feet / 3.5 meters, this large and imposing statue of Albert Einstein is actually seated on a bench, at the front of Washington's National Academy of Sciences." Sculpture by Robert Berks.

Right: detail of "Jürgen Goertz bronze sculpture of Albert Einstein, Ulm’s internationally most famous son, in 1984. It is located on the grounds of historic Zeughaus. (Zeughaus is Ulm’s historic arsenal; today it is home to parts of Ulm’s municipal court.)

It consists of three elements:

The rocket symbolizes technology, the conquest of the universe and the atomic threat.

On this base you see a big snail shell which symbolises the opposite, namely nature, wisdom and scepticism about mankind’s dominance of technology."

"It has become appallingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity."

wallpaper Mimetism: imitating to survive

Right: Flounder in Brazil (by MLyra)

Mimetism is the way some animals avoid predators by imitating natural elements like the color of the environment they live.

Flounders have stains in their bodies that mimic the soil they live.

Two examples of how precise they are.

There are other forms of camouflages like "playing dead".
