Peace who wants it?
Go bottomA call for a change of focus to something achievable.
This part is intended for some uncommon folk who reside here in North America those who are dedicated to and working towards world peace. Perhaps you may be missing something major namely that being there are on the other continents countless people that do not want peace. Some cultures there breed and train soldiers who are conceived and raised with the intent that they will one day blow themselves to smithereens and take as many others with them as they are able to. Such people do not want peace they want to fulfill their destiny. A country that creates such people does not want peace. Countless others are born into open war zones and grow up with constant open war and sudden death happening every day it is to them the way life is they may have no understanding of what peace even is but overall they are as happy as those born into peace zones as indicated by suicides and depression in the latter places. Those of other cultures on other continents do not want themselves or those that they personally care for to be harmed as a result of open warfare but that is NOT the same thing as wanting peace. Some of them want others to be harmed by open warfare.
The point of this writing is to get our peaceniks to dedicate themselves to MAINTAINING peace within North America this is achievable. Peace IS wanted by your fellow citizens.
Saving lives
Poverty kills, lack of timely and proper medical treatment kills, unsafe highways kill, rampant crime kills, if one were to add up all those killed by the aforementioned on this Continent the sum would be staggering and we expect quite comparable to the number killed by open warfare on other continents. So what? Well if a new method of social operation were available here that could eliminate most of these deaths would it not be something worthy for those who are dedicated to saving lives? The main point to be made here is that while bringing about world peace may be an noble endeavor chances of success approach zero while the probability of saving lives via the latter method approach certainty.
Will those who are dedicated to achieving peace in order to save lives continue as they have been or will they change their focus and put their time, resources, energy into something that has a real chance of success we wonder?

A change of focus for our peaceniks
to something both wanted and achievable
MAINTAIN OUR PEACE
here at home in North America.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Few would argue that the greatest single cause of open war is poverty. Perhaps the next most common cause would be religious & cultural diversity. The countries that make up North America are now the most religiously & culturally diverse anywhere on earth they also have more child poverty than any other of the developed countries on earth. Just now we have peace here but there is little doubt that it is now in jeopardy it is time that our peaceniks turned their attention and efforts homeward else they could find themselves and those they love in a open warzone.
Note that the prefix open is used where ever the word war was written this timely plea for help to those whose trip is ending open warfare it is not about any so-called war such as war on drugs, war on crime it is about the preventing of open warfare in the 30 or so countries that make up North America via the achievable goal of eliminating it’s greatest single cause poverty.
Gaining some understanding of and then taking up the task of persuading their fellow citizens to implement this plan for reconstructing North America’s infrastructure, for replacing money with Energy Accounting is what our peaceniks should all be doing this will more than assure our peace it will as one soon learns go a long way towards making our entire planet a somewhat more peaceful place.
INVESTIGATE THE PLAN then tell others about it by 2015 1/10th of this planets population will be fed, housed, clothed. And that is how to really save the planet.
