***** documentary 30min. Miko Peled is a peace activist who dares to say in public what others still choose to deny. Born in Jerusalem in 1961 into a well known Zionist family, his grandfather, Dr. Avraham Katsnelson was a Zionist leader and signer of the Israeli Declaration of Independence. His Father, Matti Peled, was a young officer in the war of 1948 and a general in the war of 1967 when Israel conquered the West Bank, Gaza, Golan Heights and Sinai. Miko's unlikely opinions reflect his father's legacy. General Peled was a war hero turned peacemaker

House Majority Leader Eric Cantor released the following statement following House passage of H. Res. 657, a bipartisan resolution sponsored by Representatives Steve Israel (D-NY) and Tom Cole (R-OK) expressing U.S. support for the State of Israel as it defends itself against unprovoked rocket attacks from the Hamas terrorist organization:
"Israel is one of our nation's strongest democratic allies and its
security is directly tied to our own. Hamas' outrageous and unprovoked
war against Israel must end. Until Hamas accepts the Quartet principles,
abandoning violence and recognizing Israel's right to exist as a Jewish
state, there will not be peace. There is no justification for Hamas'
violent assault on Israel, which withdrew completely from Gaza in 2005.
Since then, Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad have lobbed thousands of
rockets into Israel and Hamas staged a coup against the Palestinian
Authority, assuming complete control over Gaza and turning it into a den
of terrorism." http://majorityleader.gov/

leader in Congress who supports innovative solutions for families, free

"War"
is the only word in the english language I know of that connotes total,
all out devotion of life, limb, treasure, heart, soul.... HOW it wages
that is the issue - VIOLENCE (Violating what is right for others) is NOT
the only way to Wage War. UNVIOLENTLY WAGING LOVING is the other way -
WITH YOUR ENTIRE BEING CONSTRUCTING a better reality... as a desperate
medical team might fighting for the life
of a child - Frenetic, TOTAL EFFORT, of CONSTRUCTION, CREATION.... NOT
DESTRUCTION. Agents of Peace, of a better world MUST step up to face
this. 99% of the otherwise best hopes for Peace wind up hiding behind
such notions as 'peace is the way.' Peace IS the way of Death... coffin.
WAGING A WAR OF LOVING by whatever words, or no words at all, is what
describes the work of True Unviolent Activists bringing about Peace...
throughout history. "I consider myself a soldier... tho a soldier of
Peace." Gandhi. Me too. You?

I was on my every morning, 6 days per week, self appointed campaign to pick up every condom, shard of glass, candy wrapper... that covered the 12 acre campus of the blighted, 95% poverty, 1200 student Columbus Elementary in Chester PA yr 2000... before any students or staff arrived each morning. Spotless was what I wanted for them. Probably the best application of my masters degrees in Business and Psychology I've ever applied. Almost killed me, literally. Often by mid afternoon I was literally paralyzed with exhaustion. "I get it now," said a voice. It was Mr. Jackson, school custodian. I barely knew him, I was new to the school. "Oh. You get what," I asked. "You are at war; you are at war for these kid's lives," he said. I'd never thought of it that way. I didn't really understand why I was killing myself in this way. My heart, my Soul, just said "DO IT," so I did. But he was right. I was at all out, total, pay any personal price war for the kids in that school, otherwise bound for early prison and death. I've been at war for humanity my entire adulthood but only when Mr. Jackson put those words to it did I understand.

A man I respect took me to task yesterday for my bold stance in support of Pr. Obama. My reply: "The INSTANT I conclude that Pr. O PREFERS, not abhors, such policies (drones, targeted killing, Guantanamo, deportations, fracking, TPP, Israeli Extermination of Gaza...) I'll be his most strident opposition. Dietrich Bonhoeffer abhorred killing... but set his life's course to murder Hitler. Yes, the targets in these cases differ but the core moral dilemma is the same - striving for the impossible - how to be 'good' in a near totally, totally, totally, totally, totally... evil world."
