PAUL SIMON SINGS SOUNDS OF SILENCE AT 9-11 MEMORIAL
(Excerpt) Read more at vladtepesblog.com ...
I attended a Paul Simon concert in Minneapolis last May the day after Bin-Laden got his head blown off. Before Simon started his program, he commented on the previous days events telling the crowd how happy he was that justice was finally served.
The song was originally written as an emotional response to the JFK assassination in 1963.
Did anyone else note that when he sings:
“And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made”
the camera zooms into a shot of the American flag?
Let me perhaps expound a bit as to what I meant. Being that it was the tenth anniversery of 9/11 I suppose I should have given a more detailed explanation of what I meant as I was not in a good mood considering the day. What I meant to say was what in the world has a song from 1968 America, sung by a Jewish performer,( people who are Jewish are many time called “Jews’’. Check out the International Fellowship of Christian and Jews’’, of which I am a contributing member.) a song speaking to racism, social inequality and poverty and societal indifference in American at that time have to do with the murder of almost 3,000 Americans murdered by Islamic killers in Sept of 2011? And ‘’noob!?! Madame again. Good Lord, how utterly juvenile that makes you sound. Tell me something, O enlightened one, what in the hell does time spent on a web-site confer to someone like you? Wisdom, insight, elitism? You sound like some petulant eighth-grader in a school yard. So in closing I would humbly request if you would be so kind as to NEVER AGAIN respond to anything I post and let me say this to you as gentlemanly as possible: Go fly a kite and spare me your self-righteousness because self-righteousness is just a phony form of respectability
