Re: [OT] Another heated discussion about the Iraq siutation, war and politics.
..here's my 2 cents..
"Peace is not an 'Act' or a 'state of being', Peace is what's left when you remove hatred, violence, persicution, and yes even racism."
"Before people can live in peace they must first learn to live without hate, to live without violence, to live without racism, and to live without fear."
It is a hard lesson to learn, and one I feel people will never fully learn.
Hate is most often born of jealousy, violence is most often born of 'the desire to control', racism is born of ignorance, and fear is the basis of most modern day economies.
Don't wish your enemy dead, wish him a long life, it's a much crueler fate!
someone once said.."I know the truth and even if I shout it at the top of my lungs, nobody will hear it. Why? Because to hear the truth you have to be willing to listen!"
..the end!
