Stop the Opium Wars

Afghanistan

...

F.Y.I.

In 2000 the 2 biggest sources of opium were Burma and Afghanistan. However in 2000 the victorious Taliban decided to destroy the opium poppy crop (notwithstanding its considerable financial importance) and before the US invasion in 2001 it had been virtually all destroyed. However the US victory meant that by 2002 Afghanistan under US guns had regained its previous important position as a major World opium producer:

AFGHAN OPIUM PRODUCTION DOUBLES
Ever wonder why the markets are doing so well? As FTW has documented for years, with almost $600 billion in drug money being laundered through Wall Street and US banks, the markets should be improving. According to CNN, opium production in
Afghanistan is 36 times higher than at the end of Taliban rule. Not every US policy overseas is a failure. Hamid Karzai controls a few square blocks of Kabul. But CIA-controlled warlords control the real estate that really matters.

America’s top military leaders drafted plans to kill innocent people and commit acts of terrorism in US cities to trick the public into supporting a war against Cuba in the early 1960s. Approved in writing by the Pentagon Joint Chiefs, Operation Northwoods even proposed blowing up a US ship and hijacking planes as a false pretext for war. [ABC News, 5/1/01, Pentagon Documents]

I realize that the war on drugs is really a war for drugs (mass mind control!)...Power&money!...Nothing NEW here! The more things change the more they stay the same...!!! I have heard more than enough about war death disease politics crime ETC...What am I to do about it!? I AM SICK OF HEARING ABOUT IT !!!!! If people want to get sucked into the vortex how am I to STOP them ? "To accept the things I cannot change & the wisdom to know the difference!" .... Ranting & raving about drug addicts & murderers does not accomplish anything!... If I get angry & upset about this CRAP what difference will it make? Will my singular disapproval ( or even the disapproval of a thousand ) change any of this ? I DO NOT WANT TO HEAR IT ANYMORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "O.K.!!!"!!!!!!! Did it really make any difference in the Vietnam war to have Hippies dancing about on drugs screaming in the streets!?!? Or was that just an excuse to be CRAZY & "cut loose"? HONESTLY!!! WHAT A BUNCH OF CRAP!!! Deal W/ IT !!! People who are addicted to their EMOTIONS that now have an excuse to vent !...Did the riots in the streets stop the war ? NO!!! The War was a flogged dead horse being beaten regardless of the screaming Hippies! YOU "FLOWER CHILDREN" did not change a damn thing! As far as I can see all the "baby-boomers " did was make fools out of themselves as an excuse to "protest"...Then grew up a bit & "SOLD OUT"!...Give me a break!... STOP! xoxo GEN X. seeya!

Right on ..
take it EZ ...at least the boomers were out there sticking flowers into guns and it is not over yet ... now we have started WARANON and War Addicts Anonymous just for people like us

...where we say the serenity prayer ...and guess what we have peace ...so do not lose your serenity ...you are already home and there is peace in the valley

... we just need to be vigilant too, that is all.

Here is an edited cc. of my previous msg.:

 

Humans have been on this planet for millions of years and only in the last 4 thousand, when they have multiplied like rats - overpopulated -have they cultivated the arts of war. We started war addicts anonymous, you may want to

check it out:

http://waraddictsanonymous.org

...because we are also a recovering "war anon" persons

(for friends and family of adrenaline addicts and ragaholics) ...my father was a rageaholic ex warrior and my mother was a workaholic war slave ...but also I was a peace warrior until I understood that waging war ...even spiritual warfare is still war ...and you are absolutely correct about this and I do not disagree that we need to not dwell on the negative.

and another link here is to Rageaholics anonymous:

http://www.rage-anon.org/

...here is also a link also for Christians in 12 Step recovery that deals with rageaholic behavior, maybe this will work for Muslims and Jews also?:

...i hope you find these useful.

But when i send out a new poem (slogan) "Stop the Opium War" that is like sending out a message of truth, peace and hope so that others can think and talk and find answers and make some sense out of the mud out there of religionist warmongers propaganda.

Being a pacifist does not mean you lie down and play dead ...it is a life style of vigilance and not feeding the rats...

Yes humans are capable of being animals but that does not mean that that is all we can be and that war is all there is , even though the war machine propaganda tells us so, we are also able to be angels too.

By the grace of your higher power , practice your magical art and banish war from this planet NOW and Forever, Exercise your power as an angel of peace... for it is written in the scriptures ...Whatever you ask for it will be given unto you ...and if you have the faith you can move a mountain...therefore do not accept war as a God given thing, God gave us free choice...the rest is up to us... but ask instead for peace and it will manifest itself everywhere even and most importantly you will have it yourself. "Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall know peace"

Amen So Mote It Be
