My friend Shahar has decided to sign off every post from now on with the following:
“Moreover, I advise that the genocide in Darfur must be stopped”
This is a paraphrase on Cato the Elder, who used to sign off every speech with a pledge to destroy Carthage (”Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse”).
Israel and the whole Jewish people have commemorated the victims of Holocaust last week. We are very good in remembering what happened to us, we suck at preventing it from happening to others. We seem to have an infinite repository of excuses. Once it gets out of our immediate scope we simply do not care. I am not sure which one is worse.
I am very ashamed of the fact we have not taken a proactive stand in the Darfur situation. I am more ashamed of myself for having done nothing to date.
I am going to take Shahar up on his initiative and sign off every post with a pledge. The thought of generating a lot of noise from the blogosphere is not far fetched.
Moreover, I advise that the genocide in Darfur must be stopped

[…] Aner Ravon at De Gardener writes about an initiative of his friend Shahar to sign off every post with the sentence “Moreover, I advise that the genocide in Darfur must be stopped.” Shahar explains this sentence in Hebrew, and Aner explains it in English: “This is a paraphrase on Cato the Elder, who used to sign off every speech with a pledge to destroy Carthage (”Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse”).” […]
Pingback 04.22.07 @ 8:26 pmI’ve adopted this initiative on my blog too. It actually makes me more ashamed of my inaction, since every time I write this sentence, I’m reminded how insignificant that is in the face of what’s going on.
04.22.07 @ 8:27 pmsounds like a worthy enough cause… I’m in.. good job Aner 
That quote should be ”Ceterum censeo Carthaginem delendam esse.”

04.30.07 @ 6:45 pm[…] Continuing on the tradition of brown people and where they deserve to be, apparently Sarkozy wants to get rid of 125,000 immigrants, right off the bat! I wonder if they can just stick a big needle in the banlieues and suck out all the Muslims? Then they could stick them right in Darfur, and hey, free fun! […]

Trackback 06.24.08 @ 7:12 amYour site is a refreshing change from the majority of sites I have visited. When I first started visiting web sites I was excited by the potential of the internet as a resource and was very disappointed initially. You have restored my enthusiasm and I thank you for your efforts to share your insights and help the world become a better place.

Commendable move. No matter how small, anything that gets the word out is a positive good.
