I now Quote from the op-ed page of today's Seattle Post-Intelligencer:
"Imagine you're a Palestinian refugee, living in a miserable camp on the border between Syria and Iraq. To say that life is hard would be an understatement, but if things go as the UN Refugees Agency and the PLO have planned, they have decided to move about 3000 Palestinian refugees to Khartoum, Sudan--where in the Darfur region, genocide goes unchecked, and the country's leader, Omar al-Bashir is facing war crimes trials."
Next to this sidebar, there is an op-ed written by Bill DIENST, an ER physician from OMAK, Washington (State) USA who details in his article (he is a guest columnist) that the FREE GAZA MOVEMENT intends this August to leave from Cyprus (KYBRVS) to besieged GAZA in two ships, challenging ISRAEL's policy of imprisoning 1.4 million people in GAZA.
I send this comment and this FYI here on your wonderful center to prevent genocide in the hopes that if I can do what I can do to inform people of what is happening and what is going on, regardless of what news CNN/FOX/MSNBC choose to cover about Paris Hilton or Miley Cyrus, regardless as to how entertaining those two may well be, THIS IS, I believe, more important, and I humbly submit this here to you, brothers & sisters!
"Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art... It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things that give value to survival." (C. S. Lewis)
World PeaceWith peace in my heart, I bless the world with love and harmony. In a world filled with divergent cultures and ideologies, it might seem difficult for peace among all the nations of the world to be achieved. However, because we are all created by God with peace in our hearts, a world at peace is possible. I approach each day with a peaceful attitude and a willing heart in anticipation of the possibilities for peace that await us all as the family of God. To set the tone for peace in my own life, I pray. During quiet prayer, I am immersed in the love of God. I send peaceful, loving thoughts to my world family. I envision people in every part of the globe--working, playing, and communicating with one another in harmony. One by one, we are expressing the peace of our divine nature. "May the God of steadfastness and encouragement grant you to live in harmony with one another, in accordance with Christ Jesus."--Romans 15:5
