"For the West, mercy is a strange passion; one they follow at the expense of strategy, of humanity, and ultimately of reason. With me it is merely good manners. The desert has drunk more blood than you or I can ever imagine; judge for yourself which motive is the more expedient." - Aden Mansour, PhD, University of Algiers Professor of Art History and Antiquities

Biography

"American-born USAF brat educated abroad" might explain her hard-to-place accent. The daughter of an officer, she became one herself before joining the United Nations as a Peacekeeper deployed variously to Algeria, Darfur, Mali and Lebanon over several years under the UN's initiative to promote women as "active agents of peace in armed conflict." Her honorable discharge following a formal report to the UN General Assembly landed her in Paris. If she warms up to you, she'd say she has come to Los Angeles because she prefers warm desert nights to any other, loves the city and surrounds for its sheer size, its cultures, its staggering opportunities and its life-and-death vibrancy.

Judith ~ A Perfect Circle

Even though he's the one who did this to you
You never thought to question why
...
It's not like you killed someone
It's not like you drove a hateful spear into his side
Praise the one who left you
Broken down and paralyzed
He did it all for you

Cruel ~ Tori Amos

Dance with the Sufis
Celebrate your top ten in the charts of pain
Lover, brother, bougainvillea
My vine twists around your name
Even the rain is sharp like today
As you shock me sane
