***** I wish I could find hope in the approach of the Nile project, breaking down the barriers between people, learning the similarities, learning to like them. I wish I could find hope from this approach but I do not. It was the approach that my generation embraced and it has not slowed, it probably has lubricated, our race off the cliff to oblivion. I've spent the last several days studying who I now consider by far the most important prophet on Earth today, Christopher Hedges. For two decades, among other things, he was a war correspondent for The New York Times covering revolutions in Eastern Europe, South America, around the world. He has sacrificed all the trappings of that, leaving the New York Times, so that he could freely write, speak and live the truth. Three things in the many hours I've watched these last several days, come especially to mind regarding the Nile project. 1, to the Sunis and Shia in iraq it was inconceivable that they would never turned on one another. They were friends, they were intermarried. And now they are trying to slaughter 1 another. 2, he observe that the people he has seen lead profound positive change did it not because they thought they should, not because they thought it was a good idea, they did it because they could not do otherwise, by their very constitution, they could not sit by in the face of the evil, they could not fire on innocent people, etcetera. 3, he said you cannot teach morality, you can only live it, and I think, he meant, there by become something that can awake in the same in others, and thereby spread . Now, my point is not to denigrate the nile project. To the degree that people involved are taking extreme personal risk, risking everything, to bring peace through this project, because they find that personally they cannot do otherwise, then it is exactly what Hedges and I have come to understand is required.

***** nd. Golden Rule (if a 'believer' does not practice this, above and before all else, they are A FRAUD, FAKE, IMPOSTER, CON-ARTIST...hypocrite, liar.): ISLAM: "Wish for your brother, what you wish for yourself" or "Love your brother as you love yourself". JUDAISM: "What is hateful to you, do not do to your fellow: this is the whole Torah; the rest is the explanation; go and learn." CHRISTIANITY: "Love your neighbor as you love yourself."

***** No offense intended, but if you self identify as a 'Christian,' 'Muslim,' or 'Jew' and do not observe the Golden Rule above all else, first and foremost, then I do NOT recognize you as what you claim.

Obama's short memory. "The question is: Why since its inception 14 centuries ago, did the Muslim world not generate or incubate the kind of violent extremism that we witness today? If it's not religion, as the president argues, and I concur it is not, what drives it? The short answer: continuous war, occupation and oppression."

***** President Obama Speaks at the Summit on Countering Violent Extremism | The White House..................SHAME ON YOU PR. OBAMA. SHAME ON YOU. This is the first time every that I have felt Pr. Obama was telling us a profound, deeply destructive, lie. The lie that the US is not fundamentally responsible for the 'terrorism (resistance)' coming out of the Muslim middle east, and that they are not Right to be in revolt against our oppression, state terrorism, and hedonistic values that are objectively, indisputably, destroying all of creation.
