HAROLD PINTER Nobel prize speech. Thought provocking
If you love literature marvel at the writings of the late Harold Pinter. watch this video, it is his nobel prize for literature acceptance speech. The speech embodied his life and work. His final stance against the powers that be, their arrogance and apparent double standards. "there is no one truth" he said.

I met the late Harold Pinter at the anti-war march in London Green park before the Irag invasion. He was a honourable man and a great thinker who never hesitate to express himself against the status quo. He uses the nobel platform to express his moral objection to unjust war and killings. Even though he was Jewish by race, he also regularly express his objections to Israels brutal acts against defenseless and poor Palestinians. Not many western politicians dare challenge the racism and brutality of Israel, yet pinter did it time and again.
the Evangalist churches backed the actions of Israel on the pretext that, the middle east will be englof in flames and all out wars will be decleared, thus the rappture. sad days we are living.
RIP Pinter. Kay try to lay your hand on the Late Grace Halsell's book, title 'Forcing God's Hand'. The book deals with the forces behind Israel's actions and tne lobby groups backing them. great reading, Halsell was a former white house speech writer. |
