A Satiric View of Today's Wars

JuBlu turned me on to a site in which I found a blog whose satiric posts are apropos to the articles we post about the wars going on. The author of the blog presents a god named Mangala, God of War and Empire ( http://mangala.blogspot.com ) who observes and comments on man's doings in the wars. Some people fail to understand satire, but I believe most of our friends who visit me and Granny here do and can appreciate the fine irony on some of the posts.

In the posts, Moon Calf is ofcourse our fearless leader, President George W. Bush. I think you can readily identify the Dark Robes. The reference to "the Caliphates' return" is about Mahdi, the 12th imam, the Shii Islamic belief in a Messianic person, whom we may liken somewhat to the Jews' belief in a Messiah to come and the Christian belief in the return of Jesus Christ as the Messiah.

I like this blog and may post links to it occasionally. I have several on tap now to post. I hope you like them, also. This is a very good one:

I would like to hear your thoughts on this satiric post and if you like this blogger's writing and style.
