了解好多澳土著人的历史，土著人的参观点以及他们对学生的教育，土著人写的诗词
有时会对比这些存在已久的族落，也会想，澳土著和美印第安真是backward - 没多少发展，几千年不变的生活方式
另一方面说， 什么是发展呢？ 就是消耗资源尤其是不可再造资源, 文明的同义词就是占有; 先文明化的族群由于发展而带出环境资源问题。

We don't own the land, the land own us. The land is my mother, we are part of the land.

Six Ways Obama Talks About War Without Saying “War”
Read more: http://swampland.time.com/2013/0 ... -war/#ixzz2er3d5EuI




The rousing rhetoric of a wartime speech is one thing. Trying to explain what the U.S. might do in Syria is quite another, a rhetorical puzzle that Obama’s administration has been trying to piece together for the war-weary American people. In six interviews last night, Obama walked a thin line trying to explain what, exactly, the U.S. should do when another country crosses a red line.

Here are six rules the President and many of his aides seem to be following when it comes to talking about war that isn’t war.

Don’t use the word “war,” of course.

There has long been a stockpile of euphemisms for actions or threats that involve making war, in the dictionary sense of “the employment of armed forces against a foreign power”: any necessary means, regime change, ultimate defense, humanitarian intervention, grave consequences—all options being on the table. In his interviews last night, Obama repeatedly referred to “military action” and even euphemized “military action” as “a significant piece of business” in an interview with PBS. “Everybody knows if you send in Tomahawk missiles and you’ve got the fleet sitting off the coast, those are war-like actions,” says Ken Khachigian, a former speechwriter for Nixon and the chief speechwriter for Reagan. Still, he says, “I wouldn’t say ‘we’re going to war’.”

Talk about what it is by saying what it isn’t.

Whatever the U.S. does in Syria, Obama reiterated last night, will not involve “boots on the ground.” It will not include “sustained airstrikes.” It will not amount to being involved in the “entire Syrian conflict.” The “sectarian civil way in Syria” is one thing, and what the U.S. does is another. He said America will not “embroil” itself. It will not be “long term.” And it will not be “costly.” This military action will not amount to “a military engagement” or “some large-scale invasion,” that would morph into a “slippery slope.” And it certainly wouldn’t be anything like other slippery slopes America has been trying to climb in the Middle East, he said, or “even Libya.”

Say the target is a group of things.   

Obama’s language suggested that the U.S., unlike Bashar Assad, would not really be taking action against human beings. A military strike in Syria is different than one in Iraq or Afghanistan, he implied, because this is a fight against the use of things. His plan is for the U.S. to strike “Assad’s capabilities,” to execute a “set of strikes to degrade his chemical weapons capabilities,” to “deal with this chemical weapons issue.” Our foes in his words are nouns that will never live or breath. “There’s a lot of clinical language that gets used when you’re speaking about the actions taken by your own side,” says former Clinton speechwriter Jeff Shesol. “Your language gets a little looser when you’re speaking about the other.”

Make it sound small.

Secretary of State John Kerry likely went too far yesterday when he said that military action would be “unbelievably small.” As Shesol says, “It starts to sound at a certain point like protesting too much.” But Obama used keywords last night to suggest that, if war was a duel to the death, military action in Syria will be more of a glove to the face demanding satisfaction. He used the word limited no fewer than 10 times, and words like narrow. He repeatedly used the word proportional. What exactly is proportional to a foreign leader’s use of chemical weapons on his own citizens is up for debate, but proportional action implicitly rules out widespread destruction or anything that would be big enough, in theory, to justify another round of retaliation.

Make it sound precise.

The word Obama used last night most often in reference to chemical weapons and why most all of humanity opposes them was indiscriminate. So he emphasized that military action taken by the U.S. would be the opposite of blind slaughter. It would instead be discriminate and “very specific” in a “targeted,” even “surgical,” way. When Obama wasn’t referring to military “action,” he referred to military “strikes,” which also sound much more distinct than bombings or even the use of missiles. Weapons are chaotic; a strike is like an organized bolt of lightning. “They really want people to understand how contained this operation is going to be,” says Shesol. “[A limited strike] sounds very clean. It sounds very technical.”

But make it sound serious.

When NBC’s Savannah Guthrie interviewed Obama yesterday, she said the notion of “limited and consequential” strikes seemed almost a contradiction in terms. But if the U.S. is taking action, Obama has to make it sound like that action will be big and bad enough not only to deter Assad from using chemical weapons and to avenge the death of Syrian innocents, but to dissuade all other malefactors in the world from ever using chemical weapons again. So Obama repeatedly emphasized that military action would be “significant,” and that “the U.S. does not do pinpricks”—even if the U.S. does do small, surgical, limited, targeted strikes against weaponry and other things.

The following is an email from me to one of my colleagues who had operaton done, I was supposed to be serious about it. But we had been joking about each other for too long for me to keep straight face with her.

Dear Mary,

It is nice of you to keep us up-dated on your progress.

I was very pleased to be advised that it's your home-day today, so that you can keep John (John is the husband) on his toes by pressing the buzzer all the time. I suggest you to do it after midnight, if he doesn't answer it, you feel free to press the emergency one to get his urgent attention.

Ok, all the jokes aside, have you got any pain? please tell me where the pain is, does it go anywhere else? Anything you do to aggravate it or alleviate it? What is the pain score from 0-10? Do you need any morphine? If not, I strongly recommend heaps of cuddles and kisses from John. If that doesn't help you, come and see us next monday, more consultation will be coming up then!

Seriously, please take care and have a speedy recovery!

Love,
