We have a simple policy in our family "live and let live" - anyone who doesnt agree, we take him out back and shoot the &*$&%#$@ - George Carlin
WE PACIFISTS HAVE HAD ENOUGH!
So what is a pacifist? One who loves and invites peace in his heart and wants it for his family, neighbours and community.
Well in the social/global context, my family is my state, my neighbours are my nearby countries and the community is the world at large.
So lets gather pacifists from warring factions in neutral zones, in multiples of 50 - 50 from each area/community and another 50 from the world at large and PLAN A WAY FORWARD.
AS STEPHEN HAWKING PUT IT, MANKINDS GREATEST FAILURES HAVE COME ABOUT BY NOT TALKING.
And we have people pushing us to the brink of war who say "the time for talking is done"!
Mute them and their media channels, these war mongers!
I have said that the common man in his powers of persuasion and benevolence shall form the soil from which this LAST REVOLUTION TO ESTABLISH PEACE WILL SPRING
Remember the 1939 Cartoon by MGM - PEACE ON EARTH!
LET US UNITE, I GO ABOUT WEARING A BLACK ARMBAND UNTIL THE WORLDWIDE PACIFISTS PEACE CONVENTION IS ESTABLISHED.
Ask your friends in Dubai to Invite us there, but make sure they are PACIFISTS WHO'VE HAD ENOUGH.
TIME TO WIN THE EARTH BACK FROM THE WARMONGERS.
AND TO DO IT PEACEFULLY.
CAN WE STORM THE BASTILLE PEACEFULLY? Yes I believe so, 300 years of bloodshed and civilization and integration and 60 years since the love movement that was the 60s should have taught us to "MAKE WAR NOT PEACE"
I reflect SUSAN SARANDON's SENTIMENT in "The Company You Keep" that we need to be smarter and DO THINGS DIFFERENTLY.
