OT PEACE



Kim, I think in some situations some things can be said anywhere. I 
guess thats why you did not react first. We are some kind of a 
family, I feel, and wherever international groups meet, there is a 
chance to balance out the world as such.
But you are right, there is no space for history discussions or 
personal conflicts here.


Anyway, emotioned, I feel free to post what I wrote on a CD cover last 
year:

Peace is not achieved by suppressing violence.
It takes comprehension and the ability to share right.
Its a state of mind of someone that acts the best he can and feels 
respected for this.
Its not brilliant but it glooms in the dark.
Like my music, its somehow related to childhood.

And this is my impression and prayer:

I deeply feel sorry for all the people that do suffer now and in the 
future and hope all this suffering has a meaning and contributes to 
the healing of the Being World.

What can be done?
Not many doubt that the US is the strongest nation, also after this attack.
It takes a lot of responsibility to be the strongest and even if he 
makes all efforts to be just and support the weaker, there is always 
a tendency to be challenged and blamed for all. The US need to deal 
with this.
But wherever I listen and read, I only find critics for the 
US-centric and unwise politics of Mr. Bush that tends in a 
US-against-rest direction. I hope he does not really represent his 
peoples will and can be redirected.
This may be the most efficient move against terrorism.
Many people out here hope that the catastrophe shakes the US up to 
rethink the situation in the world and the necessary measures to safe 
it and leader them in accordance with the "weak's" efforts. This may 
be a way to justify that the US commands and spends such a big part 
of the natural ressources. (I placed the World at Night picture on 
that CD)
The first reactions of US did not really fuel this hope. I find the 
impulse of anger fully understandable, but WAIT and THINK and FEEL 
before you throw bombs, otherwise we are ALL FRIED - my God !


And this is my situation:-)

There are a lot of interesting things to discuss on the list. I would 
like to participate.
Many mails are too long. I have a hard time to dig out the essence in 
so many mails, but to post correctly, I need the whole picture. Due 
to some personal movements, I could not ketch up for two weeks and 
stock my posts here to finish them up soon.
Sorry for this.
