I know the intention of this blog lends itself towards architecture. One could argue that architecture, being a drive that pursues the ability to set a stage for life, this is most relevant. As I’m sure many of you have not heard (as the South African news service has no integrity to report the true story), Israel swopped prisoners for the release of Ehud Goldwasser and Eldad Regev. Instead of the families of the Israeli soldiers being able to rejoice in the return of their loved ones, the same privilege that was granted to the leboneese families, tonight, mothers cry over the fact that they were returned body parts of the souls that they anguished to see.
I am deeply saddened by the fact that people that I care about were returned in coffins, but what angers me is the fact that monsters like samir kantar were welcomed in ecstatic and celebrated manor; that supposed leaders who seek peace like abbas, “praised the prisoner swap and congratulated the kuntar family.” What has that society come to when murderers are celebrated as heroes?
I could write for pages of the disgust that envelopes me at this moment in the nations that surround Israel, but I think that Olmert and the father of one of the returned soldiers, Shlomo Goldwasser.
"The joys of a nation are indicative of its value-system," Olmert added. "Woe is the nation that celebrates at this hour the release of an animal that crushed the skull of an infant." Olmert
"We hope that this whole saga is behind us, I hope for the best," he said. "If hizbullah's great achievement is the release of Kuntar, who is nothing but a repulsive murderer, then I pity them." Goldwasser.
Those who celebrate the fact that dead Israeli soldiers were swopped for murderers, you are a virus to the world, and I hope for the day that you are no more!

In an attempt to start putting my portfolio together, I have started re-modeling my projects in Revit. I have started with the Vertical Wine Estate as it will probably be the most complicated. Keep watching for progress....

I was having a flick through the latest Wits Crit Mag and noticed that my blog has been listed as one of the Wits' blogs.... Seeing that I have been ridiculously lazy when it comes to my intention of blogging, I guess I better pull up my pediments and start BLOGGING. Sorry to all those of you committed "goldthang observers" who have not seen any new work over the last while. I will be doing my best to mend this.
Watch this Space!
