Fernando Botero's Art Opening
UC Berkeley, Room 190, Doe LibraryBerkeley

Fernando Botero, the most famous living Latin American artist, will
display his Abu Ghraib paintings at the University of California,
Berkeley. These 47 paintings and drawings belong to a long tradition of
artistic statements against war and violence that include Goya's
Caprichos and Picasso's Guernica.

Organized by the Center for Latin American Studies, these paintings
have never been displayed in a public institution in the United States.
The exhibit was "proposed to many museums in the U.S," according to the
artist, but all declined to show it. This will be the last chance to
view these works before they return to Europe.

"[These paintings] are among Mr. Botero's best work, and in an art
world where responses to the Iraq war have been scarce - literal or
obscure - they stand out." New York Times, 2006.

No "statement against war and violence" whatsoever - he's a hypocrite who is
more concerned about the fact that a few out-of-control enlisted guys
roughed up some inmates than the reality that those same inmates were
terrorists who advocated killing people merely for not sharing their
religious views.

There's gotta be an elephant with a brush that could make a lot of
peanut and celery money with the right colors and a good PR guy.

The reader will recall that Shammo de SD has bragged about its vague
activities in Israel. It's quite the typical shameless joojingo or JJ
Usenet blowhole. Since 1990 JAM* has murdered > two million people in
Afghanistan, Iraq, Lebanon, Palestine, Colombia and Texas. The
Israelis trained the torturers of Abu Ghraib.

Before too long Shammo and Fake Steven --pen-names for Dianne
Feinstein and Tom Lantos-- hope to slaughter Americans in the same
style which the Pentagon has employed in so many other places around
the globe. This is called "ultimate leverage".

Honest folk of the rainbow can save our lives and our Home Planet only
by completely destroying the mad & bloody tyranny of the JASPers and
replacing it with a genuine world democracy based on the rule of law.

Shammo Feinstein's "religious view" = G_d created the whole world for
Jews only, all others to serve merely as their pincushions or slaves.

SF cheers all murders of normal** men and women by Jews, included the
scenes painted by the great Fernando Botero, worthy heir to Bosch,
Brueghel, Goya and Rivera.

FS proves that a kosher turd incarnadine can type almost as well as a
drunk monkey.
