Feature: Doorways

Introduction: http://www.sapphyr.net/natam/na-active.htm
The article below has been re-printed with kind permission of the author, Sharon Pacione. It is an attempt to wake people up out of their complacency and ignorance and see what's really happening around them, right at this very minute. The US launched an attack on Iraq, regardless of the many in the world who opposed it, including most of the nations of the UN. Do we really believe this bullying will stop at Iraq? Country after country will follow the same fate as Iraq, until we wake up to what is going on.
History books are written by the victors, and is never an indication of the truth of what really happened, and the Native Americans are but one example. We are not being told the real truth, whether it be about history, or about current events.
But now, more and more, courageous voices are speaking out against war as a solution to anything. The first step to creating Peace is to arm yourself with the Truth. The second step is to do something about it. Each of us individually has the power to create the Peace we all wish for. And not just the power, but we have a responsibility as Global Citizens. As long as we sit back and do nothing, whether out of fear or out of ignorance, we will all be victims in the end.
I encourage you to arm yourself with Knowledge. Then rid yourself of your fears and start to do something, before it is too late. Let's give our children a world to look forward to. The native americans have the custom of basing all their actions on how it will affect 7 generations into the future; that is, the future we leave our children with. What a wonderful idea for governments to implement before they make any policies. Start to become aware of what's happening, and look behind the scenes. Start questioning.

War does not determine who's right, only who's left!

Hello friend!

I was glad to find your comments in my blog ('Revolutionary Spirit..'). I am still very much engaged in politics, but I haven't posted to that blog in a while; I have been working on creating my own WordPress-based blog, where I will post all my writings to.

I wasn't sure anyone was even reading it, thank you very much for taking the time to read my poor attempts at commentary. I can tell you are someone who understands the dire situation we're all in today, and how serious it is.

Unfortunately people like yourself are few and far between, thank you for being alert in today's world of apathy and lethargy.

In any case, if you would like, I am most likely going to be writing at my WordPress site at:

I loved your most recent post, especially the note on Native Americans considering the next 7 generations in their actions.. truly what great advice.

Peace
