[This post is deadly serious.]

You remember the story.

Certain to brutally rape, pillage, torture and murder ALL CHILDREN, WOMEN and men come in to town MATERIALISM, RACISM AND MILITARISM.

Col. Ann Wright (or Cindy Sheehan; your choice) resigns her normal life, SACRIFICES EVERYTHING, PUTS EVERYTHING ON THE LINE (JUST LIKE 140,000 OF OUR CHILDREN WE'VE ALLOWED TO GO TO IRAQ HAVE DONE) and work with their very lives to inspire those threatened to stand with courage.

Pictured below is Col. Wright talking with the Democrats and Republicans, YOU as a matter of fact. Actually you like to talk, and talk, and talk, and talk.... It is Standing, and Doing you don't seem to like.

Oh, we can't join you! We have families to think of!!! Hmmm. It is EXACTLY YOUR FAMILIES that if you truly Loved them, you would HAVE TO RISE, RISK EVERYTHING, TO GAIN EVERYTHING.

Unlike the schmaltzy "High Noon" Col. Wright could NOT defeat Materialism, Racism, and Militarism standing without you. So now your, YOUR FAMILY lives in a Marshal Law police state that is raping and devouring the rest of the world, and most of your townsfolk. You are rich enough to escape it today. But your cowardice has murdered YOUR CHILDREN, murdered the Humanity that was the birthright within your children, and you have given them A Planet from Hell for eternity.

CHANGE THE ENDING.

}}}}} I HAVE A FATAL INFECTION {{{{{

I discover that I am infected with a fatal virus, a Spirit of Humanity for which I take no more credit than if it were typhoid, or Empire. I've simply caught it.

But if it spreads from me and the few others that have it, Empire is doomed. Otherwise it is we, and finally the Spirit of Humanity, that are finally doomed.

Oh God, this is not poetic to me. E=MC Sqd

BUSH, CHENEY, MEDIA... INDICT YOU AND ME.

We are to blame, if anyone is.

You mean to tell me that if we had done our job, sacrificed our lives as Patriots DO, that Bush, Pentagon, Media, Congress... all our Devils wouldn't be on the street? They can't stand up to hundreds of millions living out their humanity any more than the British could in India or the communists could in Poland.

So, as long as they, the apostles of Empire rule, THE INDICTMENT IS OF YOU AND ME, NOT THEM.

THIS IS VERY EMPOWERING OF YOU AND ME, IF WE SEIZE THE OPPORTUNITY.

WE ARE RESPONSIBLE.

}}} WEAPONS OF MASS HUMANITY {{{

Click image for high quality version. Pass it on.

Note: This site is intensive with posts on the following issues. SEARCH ME. Indefensible to dealing with this particular post is the greatest single essay ever written on such issues: LOVE IN ACTION, Thich Nhat Hanh


A. WEAPONS CHARACTERISTICS:

• Paying the price with one's own life to bring about Humanity (Ransom, Redeem, Sacrifice, Incur the Cost...)


• 0% symbolic (is "symbolic" what you do when your child is in an emergency?
  


• ALWAYS AND 9,999% OUT OF ONE'S PERSONAL, HIGHEST, UNCONDITIONAL, UNIVERSAL HUMANITY


• 999% OUT OF SERVICE TO THOSE OF INHUMANITY (EXACTLY WHAT YOU WOULD WANT DONE TO YOU IN THAT CIRCUMSTANCE)
  


• 5000% out of a soul in solidarity with 400% of humanity (born and unborn)


• 5000% out of a soul solidarity with the worst imaginable enemies. (there is Family or Not-Family, Kindom or Empire, Humanity or Inhumanity, Hospitality or Hostility; THERE IS NO 3rd OPTION.)


• 199% SELF-sacrificial


• 199% OTHER-protective


• 199% Focused on invoking Humanity and eradicating InHumanity


• 199% what one would do to their absolute Dearest One in the same situation. Never less.


• Proportional to the Hostility / Inhumanity that must be overcome


• NEVER focused at STUFF / THINGS / INSTITUTIONS / PEOPLE; these are symptoms
  


• Always focused at the Heart / Conscience / Compassion / Humanity - MORAL CONVERSION


• NEVER, NEVER, NEVER aimed at behavior (manipulation, coercion, pressure....)


• As a shepherd, not a sheep (yes, shepherds can work together in millions). Humanity not Human led.


• 199% the most honest communication with family FOR SAKE OF THEIR Humanity


• Values the "individual" action vs the "collective." Millions can be together for an action as "individuals" working together (but today almost always "sheep" to ENJOY being together.


• Always in solidarity with the OTHER.
  


• NEVER about the SELF.


• Never about Superiority.


• Never about (material) Stuff.


• Never about Systems.


• Never about Institutions.


• Always and entirely to EMPYRE (the Spirit of) EMPIRE.
  

B. BUNKER BUSTER, MISSILE, BOMB GRADE WEAPONS (AS OF TODAY'S EMERGENCIES, ANYTHING LESS IS A WASTE OF TIME, UNTIL ENOUGH OF THESE ARE DONE BY ENOUGH PEOPLE):

1. 20-60 DAY HUNGER STRIKE THAT IS LIFE THREATENING (GOING TO DEATH'S DOOR)


2. #1 above PLUS transition after 20-60 days to
   


3. 7 / 24 On-site vigil with minimal support


4. Extended jail / prison that is the NATURAL CONSEQUENCE of ACTING OUT OF HUMANITY


5. SELF IMMOLATION (EXTREMELY, EXTREMELY, EXTREMELY RARE CIRCUMSTANCES)


6. SELF-BLEEDING (EXTREMELY RARE CIRCUMSTANCES SUCH AS COMPLETING A HUNGER STRIKE TO THE END WHEN FORCE-FEEDING IS THE ALTERNATIVE....)


7. Arduous, low support marches / walks / bike rides (eg: trans continental)


8. Etc.


9. Etc.

C. Tactical Weapons

1. This is, at best, what the "Peace" Movement timidly utilizes (with few, few, few exceptions)

GOD IS "BEING." !!!NOT!!! "A" BEING.

No, I'm not here to argue with you. If you want to expire under delusion, like I was doing, go ahead. But if you would like to harness the only power that can save us, the only power that can save us, read on.

In Jesus day the Hebrew word Jehovah, God, translated: "THE ALMIGHTY POWER WE ALL FEEL AND NONE OF US WILL EVER BE ABLE TO NAME."

Gandhi: "God is Truth, Love and Life."

Teresa of Calcutta: "God is Love, God is Love, God is Love."

Brush this off at your peril.
This is our last chance to
get it right, for ourselves,
for our children,
for humanity.

“Someday
after mastering
winds, waves,
tides and gravity,
we shall harness
the energies of love.
And then,
for the second time
in the history of the world,
man will discover fire.”
This is a quote of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin .

Do I care if God is more than the "being" of Love, Life and Truth? Not really. Well sort of; I hope God is NOT "more" than that because I detest the idea that there is a cognizant being that that could stop all the carnage of the eons... and has not.

But still, even if I am partly incorrect and God can read this, the issue for any God is God's children, right?

We better start
looking after God's children -
the "least of these"
as we've been ordered.

Or, there will be Hell to pay.

}}}} ALL HOPE LIES IN GOD INCOGNIZANT {{{{

The root of the word Jehovah is "be," "to be," "being."

Love "is;" it has "being" and infinite power.

Truth "is;" it has "being" and infinite power.

Life "is;" it has "being" and infinite power.

Start, how do you know that God is incognizant (not cognizant, self-aware, sentient, thinking, deciding...) "being" of Life, Love and Truth? I DO NOT KNOW. NONE OF US DO, EITHER WAY, AND WE NEVER WILL KNOW IN THIS LIFE.

I do know that in the space of time it took you to read this about 13 children (God's children) have been "starved" by our Empire of easily provided resources.

I DO know that God IS these three - LOVE, LIFE, TRUTH - because too many folks like King, Jesus, Gandhi say so.

We better stop focusing on what we do not know, and get on with what we DO know we should do:

"BE" the total
SLAVES / SERVANTS / "CARRIERS"
of Love, Life and Truth.

PEACE MOVEMENT: BLACK HOLE OF DENIAL.

To my extreme horror, simply by the fact of my "being" I embarrassed the woman I was married to for 25+ years for a whole host of reasons obvious to anyone that covets Empire. Among the reasons was the range of things of which I am profoundly ignorant - sports, what is in vogue, trendy language, cocktail banter....

Psychology is not one of the areas of which I am ignorant. Trained seven years ago at the Master's level, psychology has been a lifelong obsession and study of mine, reading the great works and thinkers well beyond most PHD's I'll guess.

Denial properly understood is very simple. Denial is 1/2 of how we manage our limited capacity for attention - direction of our nervous system. We can by whatever name work to "pay" our attention in one direction while working passively, aggressively, consciously or automatically to DENY attention in other directions. Examples of what I mean, what we all do, that I might be clearer with you:

1. On my 24/7 Capitol Hill Hunger Strike, I employ a variety of techniques much of the night to deny attention to the slamming in-driveway-retractable-vehicle-barriers 25 yards from where I attempt to rest on the steps of Cannon House Office Building, in order to preserve my nerves, avoid wasted attention and get some rest.
2. You desperately wanted to go on a "date" but realized your High School Exam the next day would suffer. You go on the date.
3. Your child's planet is going to Hell literally on every dimension, but you retain your "normal" life rather than rise as patriot / hero / great activist (high and low)... have done throughout history.

What is going on is what we all do to some degree - MISUSE DENIAL TO OUR DESTRUCTION (SMALL OR GREAT). Duh, Start.

Dear reader, please take mercy on me and explain to me what I cannot now see differently. We in the peace movement are in catatonic denial of:

1. WE ARE OUT OF TIME.
2. OUR HEROISM AND SELF SACRIFICE MUST EXCEED THAT OF OUR GREATEST PREDECESSORS IN HISTORY.
3. OUR COMMITMENT, SELF SACRIFICE, ETC, WELL, ER UM, CURRENTLY IT DOES NOT EXIST. (QUESTION: WHO BESIDES AMY, ANN, DIANE, CINDY ARE RISKING EVERYTHING? ANSWER: STOCK TRADERS, SILICON VALLEY ENTREPRENEURS, BLACKWATER, BECHTEL, PENTAGON, BUSH....) OOOPS, I FORGOT THE PEACE ACTIVIST COMMUNITY! OH. NO I DIDN'T.

SUCCESS IS 1% INSPIRATION,
99% PERSPIRATION.
FOR THE "PEACE" ACTIVISTS
SO FAR IT IS "NO SWEAT!"

GETTING FROGS TO JUMP AS BOIL APPROACHES.

Seems that when you place a frog in a large pot, slloowwwlllyyy bring it to boil, the frog stays put, does nothing and dies.

Yup, just like us. Place us on a planet bring it slowly enough to a boil (morally, spiritually, economically, militarily, ecologically) we stay put, do nothing, die.

I'm a frog.

You are a frog.

Your partner is a frog.

Your community is frogs....

What are you going to do.

What if you notice,

and jump toward
HUMANITY?
You might save yourself.
You might awaken,
you might
save the whole pond.

DO YOU CARE TO TRY?

ULTIMATE WEAPON: ULTIMATE SACRIFICE.

All war is ultimately psychological - whoever sufficiently changes minds toward their ends, wins.

We warriors for everyone's humanity need weapons / tactics of a variety of strengths and purposes.

We need an ultimate weapon for dire circumstances:

Jesus was Gandhi's model:

Mark Chapter 8 34:
He summoned the crowd
with his disciples
and said ⁸ to them,
"Whoever wishes to come after me
must deny himself,
take up his cross,
and follow me.

35 For whoever wishes
to save his life
will lose it,
but whoever loses his life
for my sake
and that of the gospel ⁹
will save it.

This is not mumbo jumbo. This is not metaphysics. Not religion. Not superstition.

This is the truth of our individual and collective humanity / psychology / biology.

Well intended, calculated,
ultimate self-sacrifice
is the ultimate
psychological weapon.
It disables InHumanity, and

inflames Humanity.

Wars waged with this weapon will cost lives and blood - of the Human Warrior herself. But one tiny fraction of the lives required in fundamentally futile wars of destruction/sacrifice-of-others.

SATAN OR GOD IS YOUR FATHER.

SATAN OR GOD IS YOUR FATHER.

No, this is not true, and neither is 1+1=2 true in the sense that neither is written in nature anyplace. But both are indespensibly useful, human-made devices for navigating Life.

IT IS "AS IF" SATAN OR GOD IS YOUR FATHER. And, consciously or not we choose.

I mean, who would dispute that Jesus lived "as if" his Father who he loved and obeyed completely were God, the loving Mother of all creation?

Who would dispute that Start lived most of his life as though his Mother were Satan? Yes, even though I was a nice guy, no one would say I was a brother to all of humanity during most of my selfish life.

This is not mumbo jumbo. This is not metaphysics. Not religion. Not superstition.

This is the truth of our individual and collective humanity / psychology / biology.

DEFINITION: HUMANITY

HUMANITY is the OPPOSITE of INHUMANITY.

Simple.

"[Be] unto others all that you would have them [be] unto you."
Jesus

"Love as I have Loved."
Jesus

"... Live just like Jesus lived."
John

"... lay down your life for the [enemy]"
Jesus

"If you stand with the poor you will share their fate."
Romero

INHUMANITY: LET US COUNT THE WAYS

Hmmmmmm. (God srike me dead if this Post is .000001% cynical)

1. If you are NOT Daine Wilson, Amy Goodman, Col. Ann Wright, Aung San Suu Kyi or several hundred others like them on the planet;
2. If you are NOT in the lower classes of a 3rd or 2nd world country;
3. And if you are over the age of four
4. Etc...

WE CAN COUNT THE WAYS OF HUMANITY ROUGHLY WITH THE FOLLOWING FORMULA:

+ All of the waking minutes of you and everyone you know

- The few minutes per day that are spent on 199% selfless acts by these folks
