It’s the porridge.

Good morning, Eddy,

Dialogue is futile with irrationality and bigotry. For, there is no hope for reason or shape to be obtained from a vaporous cloud, even in the form of 100,000 letters or comments that may appear in the Times of Malta. Although, unfortunately, sometimes with clouds when it rains it pours, with deluge and hurricane winds.

In scripture, appropriately, the devil himself is called by God “Futility”. And sometimes and not infrequently in human history and in the present age, the chaos of irrationality strives to rule by force–and for a while the mob often does win.

I have no need for self-adulation or the praise of others (certainly not from you or from others, where derision may be expected). But sometimes in my humble duty to rationality, my contributions are very public (as they always have been)wherever they appear: God is reason and love, and Him they crucified.

My observations in this blog are not directed (as you may have misinterpreted) for personal dialogue with you, but they are intended for constructive influence beyond “Futility”, for the benefit of those who are capable of critical thought and analysis and a logical vote.

Madama Butterfly’s back.

We’re with you on this one Astrid, so many gardens in the way.

Privitera, are you senile or just very thick?

Gonzi did what most statesmen did at the time, such as Blair , Berlusconi and Sarkozy.

Gonzi did not go over the top like the Mintoff regime did. Gonzi did not allow Gaddafi to speak at mass meetings and introduce Arabic in schools.

No. f Malta had been independent, in this case means the agreement supposedly subscribed to by Britain and as proposed by Ciano in 1937.
Italy would have regained the right to have a proper navy in the western Meditterranean and Britain would have kept her influence to the East. And that would be Ciano’s diaries.

Mussolini entered the war in a panic, against all advice to keep Hitler away from Imperia, but that is known history.

Did I say fascism hadn’t taken hold in the PN? Albeit refused by Nerik Mizzi, who was traded in by someone who felt threatened he’d lose his influence if any communication with Italy had to take place. Now that’s real taboo, you see, the PN accused of being pro-Italian placed under arrest by black-shirts. 2012 and Nerik Mizzi is THE fascist, sweet. Gensna anyone?

Which is what Victor Scerri was trying to say, indeed let’s get rid of taboos. It’s what feeds Labour, I mean what do expect the PN to do, subdue itself to the victor’s truths?

It’s an ideological, not vernacular, necessity.

Why are you so scared of the restoration of a dimension and crucial instrument, I believe so essential, to this place?

Edward Clemmer: Why don’t you counter arguments which I make in letters to The Times instead of writing a load of nonsense here ? I will be looking forward to see your replies in The Times where you will be able to demonstrate your superior intelligence. Or are you scared to expose your daft reasoning infront of so many thousands of readers of The Times ?

Ir-Ronnuie: Are you following the public-opinion surveys ? Why do they show Dr. Muscat as much more trusted than Lawrence Gonzi ? So if the PL has ” a lot to work on to be electable “, as you wrote, Gonzi has much much more to work on to be re-elected !

Daphne: you haven’t answered my question. Did you enjoy what you saw in the mirror, yes or no ?

[Daphne – I did answer your question, Eddy, but subtlety misses the mark with you. So, to sum up: I’m not in the least bit interested in my appearance and never have been, not even at the age of 20. But forced to think about it by your inane question, then yes, I quite enjoy what I see in the mirror.After all, I could have been born looking like Eddy Privitera, his mistress, or his extended family.]

H.P. Baxter. So telling German entrepreneurs not to invest in Malta, according to you, ” was not working against Malta’s interest “, was it ? So you admit that what I wrote is correct.Of course, once those who were involved in undermining the Maltese government, were doing this in the interest of the PN Opposition, so you conclude that it wasn’t against Malta’s interest ! WHAT A SHAME !
