Afghanistan and the war

A few days ago two Italian soldiers have been killed in an attack in Afghanistan, all the newspapers put the news on big titles and most of the Italians defended the “troops sent to combat terrorism”...I just wish the reason why they choose to be sent to war was that one.

Not many people bothered to think why Italy, a nation that refuses the war as written in the Constitution, is invading a Country without no apparent reason other than Americans telling to go there because bad people, those Taliban, are terrorists.
But there's a little confusion here: aren't those the same Talibans that were negotiating with U.S. Government about the oil/gas pipeline that had to run through their territory to carry it to Pakistan and India?

Small steps?

The factor that has the heaviest impact on the Earth is the production of food, it affects every economy and it is deeply responsible for the over-exploitation of this world resources.

It is demonstrated that one average meat based meal produces 3 times more Ecopoints than a vegan one, with Ecopoints intended as the international measure of the impact of the food over the environment.

It is incredibly clear how a vegan diet is absolutely better for the Earth and obviously for the health (but I leave this for another post).

Shall everybody be vegan? Of course. Will everybody be vegan? Definitely no.

Obama, can you really?

I was pretty excited when Obama got elected, his program and ideas were pretty much about to renew everything that America always was and is nowadays, a country founded over the blood of wars. The blood shed of the native population after the arrival of the English, an imperialist approach over the rest of the world forced by the oil need, repression of the local people and cultures applying the "western civilization".

I hope he would keep up the promises, and I think many people around the world did expect the same, a sign the very quickly assigned Nobel Price for Peace would suggest (an honor that people like Nelson Mandela or the Dalai Lama Tenzin Gyatso received) that was supposed to push Obama to keep the straight line in his mandate.

2010 Sometimes they come back...

Purification always meant militant vegan straight edge. And in this lack of bands carrying the ideology nowadays we found the main reason to bring Purification back to life. As the spirit of the message always overwhelms the mere members of the band, we still believe that it makes sense to play and tour again even if with a major change in the line-up.

A new era in Purification history has begun carrying the same passionate spirit that made the band appreciated worldwide, that gave us wonderful memories and we are sure will give us wonderful times again.

While some people would think we are doing a mistake, or that we are doing it for the money (what money by the way), or that hate us for some reason...well, we hope you change your mind.

We are deeply connected to this reality and we still have the power to change it for the better. We believe that spreading the Vegan Edge message through the band is a powerful weapon that we have to use.

We particularly believe a new horizon is to be seen and hopefully we will accomplish something more with the comeback of Purification.
