The Continued Call to Wake Up

Inspired by Gareth’s post a few days ago here is another video that is just one of those most watch short films that sums up some of what is going on.  This American soldier has that fire and passion in his voice when talking about this subject that is so missed in today’s political/global debate.

This is an important thing that talking softly about does not do justice to the anger and sadness we should be feeling for the crimes we are committing on innocent civilians around the world.  These people we have been brainwashed to believe are lesser then any other human or deserving of the horrors being commited on their lands in the name of “freedom”.

The wars, the violence, the abuse to children, torture, these things must end and we need to steer from anyone or any movement that persuades you to justify ANY use of force on another human as goes on in our societies today.  This change cannot happen overnight and this will not come from a single supernatural leader.  Many feel they must wait for someone to lead us away from the corrupt governments and into some utopia but that is why there has been no great change.

The change is not one person changing the world or another government type system to follow, or we will fall into the same traps we are in now.  The change must happen in the person and the realization we don’t own ourselves in our countries, someone else does and this must change.

Mullah Baradar Arrest Ignored In Pakistan

The response to the arrest of Taliban Military Commander Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar has very positive in USA and UK news outlets, but less so in Pakistan.

The Mullah ( meaning clergyman) was arrested by CIA and Pakistan Intelligence operatives in Karachi on 8th February 2010. Though not quite a news blackout in Pakistan, analysts state that the muted response to the arrest is possibly because the authorities are wary of being seen as America’s poodle.

Not all western news organisations see this development as a clear cut issue.  Radio Netherlands Worldwide carried an article by respected journalist and Afghan specialist Bette Dam who suggested that Baradar might have been key to a diplomatic solution to the conflict.
