Let there be more love World leaders that are doves
A world with fewer guns More mothers with their sons
Instead of fighting war We help the poor
With all of our might We are not always right
People have to care To make things fair
Let there be more flowers With all of our powers
Let there be peace In the Middle East
David

Reading messages in this forum can be somewhat confusing. However it is incredibly stimulating. Your point of view concerning US dependance to oil is true: this is a dead end. As for Europe. The challenge of this crossroad is to think of something completely new. It took our ancestors thousands of years to re-think and build such systems. Unfortunately, we do not have this time...
pozdchev Fully agreed about reading the majority of the message on this board and the rest of what you said about thinking out side the box. I deeply believe unless we find peace in the Middle East we will not find any of the other answers to our many problems. With balance being one of the keys. I thought Palestinian-Israeli Three Third Settlement Peace Plan was outside the box. David
The problem to peace in the Middle East is something very simple if you look at History. Let say you live in an apartment I left 50 years ago. You think you own it. And you're right, because I left it without any sign of property. Then I come back 50 years later and fire you out from it, saying: "now get out, because this is where my ancestors used to live !". How would you react ?
The problem with your fifty year analogy, is it is still going on today and has been continuous for the last 60 plus years. It is state sponsored ethnic cleansing than has been condemn by the international community and organizations over and over. Raising the level of hate and contempt of that state and people who have been removing people and families from their homeland. So they have no real friends or allies except one nation of people who are now hated and despised as much as they are throughout their region. While claiming they only want security and peace.

I recognize this analogy may sound too simple, and it probably is. I know that many people in Israel are now fighting for a peaceful solution, and I really hope it will be possible someday. But some higher interests keep the situation unsustainable.
What no comment? I guess there are more writers than readers?
your poem sucks. happy?
I'm glade that you only think the Peace Poem sucks. It is the Palestinian-Israeli Three Third Settlement Peace Plan and Balance that are more important.
Palestinian-Israeli Three Third Settlement Peace Plan. This is a synopsis of the Palestinian-Israeli Three Third Settlement Peace Plan. The following will be dealing with the disputed land that is being illegally occupied by the State of Israel. With 80% of the Jewish Israeli’s settlers on 20% of the occupied land. One third of the occupied land running adjacent to the 1967 Armistice Line will become part of the State of Israel with some conditions placed upon it. The second one third will be part of the new State of Palestine with some conditions placed on it. The last one third will be the new State of Jerusalem with many conditions placed on it.
Today the State of Israel controls 93% of the land in Israel proper. That is lease to Jewish people only through 49 and 98 year leases. The Jewish one third of land will have a different set of by-laws allowing of a more in mix population 1/3 Palestinian and 2/3 Jewish. The same will hold true on the Palestinian one third with 1/3 Jewish and 2/3 Palestinian. With the people on either side being able to apply for dual citizenship. Only by creating the conditions for a mix of Palestinian and Jewish population along the border of the two states will the condition for a long term peace be created.
The most contentious part to both sides and the international community is the Old City of Jerusalem. The Old City of Jerusalem has an international religious significance like no other city in the world where three of the world’s major religions come together. For this reason the State of Jerusalem must be created with a whole new range of by laws creating equal access and security for all. The State of Jerusalem will be run by a council 1/3 Palestinian, 1/3 Israeli and 1/3 from the international community. The Israelis will head up and run the State of Jerusalem security forces that will be made up of 1/3 Israelis, 1/3 Palestinians and 1/3 from the international community. The Jewish settlements that fall into the State of Jerusalem will again be divided 1/3 Jewish, 1/3 Palestinian and 1/3 for the international community. The international community could be people from the universities, churches, the Vatican, the United Nations, European Union, international civic organizations, Arab League, Mosques and Temples from around the world.
It will take great sacrifices by the people on both side with a properly balance social engineering plan implemented for peace to workout. There will always be a small minority on both sides will try to derail any plans for peace because they will not be satisfied until the other side is wiped out. They must be sidelined for the greater good of the majority of people on both sides.
Balance
With a lack of balance being the biggest threat we face as a civil society as we go forward. Whether it is the global population growth, the growing disparity between the haves and have nots, with more and bigger considered to being better, the growing of the massive consumption of the global natural resources and the environmental impact or the military actions-cost verses health care cost on the American people. There are great imbalances in so many ways and places that we are at the tipping point of Mother’s earths survival in the very near future.
One only has to look at a chart of the growth of the global population. The best estimates put the global population at one billion people in the 1800’s. By 1940’s we hit two billion people taking a hundred and forty years to double the global population. From 1940’s until today the world’s population has risen by more than two and a half times to 6.75 billion people. This is half the time it took the world’s population to double from the 1800’s to 1940’s. Now look at the charts of growth of the United States population and consumption/production of the world’s oil.
The United States population today is about 5% of the world’s population and is consuming approximately 25% of the world’s oil. Some estimates put the the United States total consumption of the world’s oil from the very beginning as high as 70%. Making the United States and other oil exporting nations very rich (the haves) and other nations very poor nations/people (the have nots) because they cannot access/afford the cost of oil. While the United States establishment trades military hardware and military force for favorable oil deals that creates too many wars.
Only by changing our ways for the better and minimizing what could only be called legalized corruption. Do we have a chance for future generations to have it as good as we did in the past. Today we are at a major crossroad and unless we choose the right course there will be horrific consequences for so many people.
