Sometimes there is a voice in the wilderness that burns through the fog and slaps you in the face.
(Unlike my last post which I am still trying to figure out what the hell I was thinking.)
“I would go to war with words, not weapons. I would die talking before I lifted a weapon. I think that’s the answer to peace in the Middle East. Peace in the Middle East isn’t going to be created by another war or violent act on the other side. It’s going to be created by someone like yourself and someone like me, two individuals who have a belief and who can talk to another group of individuals and people start changing their minds. It’s not a magic trick.”

If our government would take one third of the money we spend on war efforts and use it to encourage waring people to find a common ground and workable solutions not only would a bunch of politicians be cut out of the money but most of government would no longer be needed.
To say anything more would degrade this blog into utter udderness.
