'We control life, Winston, at all its levels. You are imagining that there is something called human nature which will be outraged by what we do and will turn against us. But we create human nature. Men are infinitely malleable. Or perhaps you have returned to your old idea that the proletarians or the slaves will arise and overthrow us. Put it out of your mind. They are helpless, like the animals. Humanity is the Party. The others are outside -- irrelevant.'

i only heard one voice on that clip, possible that it goes on for longer. the point just being one of accuracy and artificially increasing the pathos of the story by making the main victim of the atrocity a small child rather than the teenager or rest of the people in the car. democracy now is saying the 6 yr old made the call now after reporting that it was the 15 yr old

tom tom. I saw that D.N. report. I recall they said that a 15 year-old made an initial call. Then, the 6 year-old made another call from the same phone apparently. Have they retracted this?

I haven't been down there for a while, but back in the day, that process was well under way, ha ha! The kind of place where the trash bags looked like they heartbeats, where you looked into the grimy fly-flecked shadows only to find something was looking back at you. The Dolls got all their clothes down there.

Re Bowie’s “edm” motifs: yes, I was having same thoughts. Outside is … well, more outside! Despite an album like “dud on arrival” black tie white noise - I have fun revisiting that album as well as so many others. When’s the last time one spun either Tin Machine?
Worthy stuff.

It seems to have been reported correctly. The 15 year old initiated the call to the Red Crescent. Car was fired upon killing all but the 6 year old. Phone line seems left open. 6 year old scared asking for help from Red Crescent. Ambulance sent, workers & 6 year old were then killed. horrible story no matter what the details.
