Editor’s Be aware
There is a stating that “nobody wins in war.” Perfectly, that just is not real. Although it is apparent that civilians are big losers, and the atmosphere is also, so are those people creatures who are unable to escape the brutalities of war – from squirrels and birds, to pets and individuals creatures captive in zoos. Even so, there are also individuals who advantage who are primarily faceless, even invisible. There are financiers and arms manufacturers, and more and more there is a growing plethora of companies giving almost everything from food stuff services, to stability, to intelligence. In element, it also is dependent on who is fighting. Even so, the most invisible of all are the organizations that focus in cleansing up and rebuilding a nation’s infrastructure from the ground up.
The U.S. has a longstanding policy of only engaging in overseas difficulties to defend U.S. “interests.” As a result, we can acquire “humanitarian” intervention off the desk. More, much of the “aid” the United States sends is arms, and we are the Number 1 arms vendor on the earth which places us on the benefit side of war by default. The individuals of the United States normally do not realize what we pay for these procedures, and for war. Of class, at the base is taxes, but the true situation is what our taxes go for, and disproportionately, that is military paying out. Republican rant regularly on how expensive social welfare systems are (from training to social safety, but also shorted is our have infrastructure (bridges, roads, drinking water and electric powered techniques, world-wide-web, and so forth) which often scores a ‘D’, and progressively is failing altogether – like the h2o procedure in Flint, Michigan and Jackson, Mississippi.
Meanwhile, at risk are the lives on the killing fields – the fight zones. The U.S. refused to even count these casualties in Iraq and Afghanistan. This is not the large ground. In the present conflict in Ukraine, it is evident that the costs on all concentrations are higher, and that the losses will persist for generations.

Leaders who could not Lead to Human Unity, Peace and Sustainable Upcoming-Building
The political adversaries towards universal peace and brotherhood are propagating a new era of a catastrophic 3rd World War. The ongoing eight months of disastrous conflict involving Russia, Ukraine and the West is draining human associations of motive, truth, and honesty. The world-wide leaders’ psychological microscope obsessed with ignorance and wickedness appears to have an irresistible requirement to deprive humanity of its peaceful future. This favourite perversion sees people today just in quantities and digits, not as human beings with voices of reason for improve and human unity. The dreadful tragedy of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict will inevitably direct to outcomes to encase mankind prematurely into accidental annihilation possibly by nuclear arsenals or a blend of nukes and house weapons. Most of us cannot visualize the devastation of the initially 2 Globe Wars, but this just one would include nuclear and place-based mostly weaponry which will eclipse the disasters of earlier wars. Glory lives in the conception of good, not in evil. The despotic worldwide leaders compete in number game titles by means of the media propagation for an imaginary position of self-elevation for peace and conflict resolution. NATO, the EU, Russia and the US are competing to have outstanding imagery for hegemonic politics. They have no sense of time and history, how ignorance and political wickedness could guide to unthinkable calamities and disrupt the world-wide socio-economic, politics and environment get. Their advanced weaponry is self-damaging. They are fearful of remaining changed by tchange and the people’s long term-making. These morally and intellectually bankrupt leaders have no time to realize the aspirations of world mankind. We, the Men and women of world aspire for peace, not for wars or the destruction of human habitats by nukes and aggression towards the powerless and weak.
Just after 8 months of warfare and quite a few million forcibly displaced refugees, there is no management eyesight and workable prepare on the table to change the class of contemporary tragic functions, massive fatalities, and destruction as morality and human intellect keep on to decline for a navigational transform – and for an quick ceasefire and workable peace. Most leaders are millionaires and supported by company entities devoid of motive and upcoming-oriented creativity to conclude the conflict among Russia and Ukraine and to reverse the photograph of utterly indescribable shadows of entrapment for a looming 3rd Planet War.
Rational conflict examination and search for peace involve listening and learning to divergent viewpoints and discovering a commonplace of reasoning with out agreeing or disagreeing to halt the animosities. This is successful conversation and enlightened management characteristics. Mankind is fraught with sorrows and worry of mysterious animosities and every day killings and displacement of the thinking method, a society – a country no make any difference how standard it promises to be, cannot functionality as usual beings co-present with their have selves, the environment – in the human tradition and make any beneficial contributions to human adjust and development.
This state of affairs reflects total societal breakdown and a march to self-annihilation. We are witnessing and living in that delusional lifestyle of human degeneration. Actions result in reactions. Russia getting command of conquered Eastern cities in Ukraine and NATO and the EU leaders are issuing new sanctions as if it will solve the urgent power source crises of fuel, oil and Nord Stream pipeline from Russia. The rupture and leakage of the Nord Stream gasoline pipeline could have catastrophic environmental complications. Political condemnations and financial sanctions will not modify the training course of record or warmongering but a reasoned dialogue of immediate talks could generate attractive results for peace. If there are any proactive clever leaders, they need to initiate direct peace talks concerning the warring get-togethers. All human acts are subject matter to alter and reformation.
We, the Persons of the globe consider in human unity, and peace and the leaders need to have to learn how to co-exist in common harmony and be at peace on this Earth. Bombs and missiles hit the Earth and destroy all residing factors and human habitats. Earth was intended for daily life and human progress, not destruction by human wickedness in the direction of the Nature of Matters. The Earth is a living entity and is meant for us – the human beings. The Divine warning is self-explanatory:
Do no mischief on the Earth right after it hath been established in purchase, but contact on God with concern and longing in hearts. For the Mercy of God is constantly around to these who do fantastic. (Chapter 7: 56: The Qur’an).
In all ages, folks and nations proclaiming to be the most highly effective and transgressors manipulating the Earth and humanity were wrecked by the Legislation of God – all-natural brings about. Many empires and egoistic leaders went this all-natural route of conference their finishes. We, the conscientious folks of the world possess a rational knowledge of equilibrium involving Gentleman, Lifestyle, and the God-presented Universe in which we all reside. We, the Individuals speculate who else besides God designed life, the Earth and the dwelling Universe floating in house very well balanced and purposeful given that time immemorial. Who else other than God established the Earth spinning of 1670 km for every hour? Who else than God ordained it to orbit the sunshine at 107,000 km for each hour? And who else than God made it to spin at 28,437 km for each hour at the equator? (https://www.newscientist.com/problem/fastearthspin/#ixzz7C8p37S9X). Be mindful that Earth’s regular distance to the Sunshine is about 93 million miles (105 million km) the length of the Moon from Earth is at the moment 384,821 km equivalent to .002572 Astronomical Units and if the length concerning the Earth-Sunlight or the Earth-moon were being ever to modify, there will be no indication of everyday living or habitats left on Earth. You as a human getting as One Humanity has a person origin – why can’t we co-exist in peace and harmony? Do people ponder and comprehend how human beings are produced by God and how societies flourish considering the fact that time immemorial?
It is He (God) Who has produced you from dust Then from a sperm-fall,
Then from a leech-like clot Then He does get you out (into the light-weight)
As a baby: then allows you (increase and) get to your age of full strength then lets you turn into previous,
Even though of you there are, some who die ahead of
And allows you reach a Time period appointed in buy that ye
Might master wisdom. (Chapter 40: 67: The Qur’an)
This knowing is significant for peacemaking and tranquil co-existence within just the Universe. The ongoing bombardments and missile attacks on civilians will improve tragic tensions, not the unity of the masses targeted by war machines.
Witness to Human Tragedies – Are We Ready for the 3rd Globe War?
We, the People today, We, the Humanity are reliving the unthinkable horrors, bloodbaths, and massacres of harmless civilians observing the every day news display in Ukraine and what transpired during the Two European Globe Wars – nonetheless contemporary on a human slate of memories. NATO, the EU, the US and Russia produced strategic divides and breathe in perpetuated animosities. What a human catastrophe and ignorance, they are unable to think outdoors the mindless box. They all spend in military services strategies and armed service alternatives. There is no check out and harmony system open up to international accountability – no worldwide legislation and no so-identified as preservation of the Geneva Conventions. Contrary to the formal statements, the every day killing of civilians goes unabated across the Ukraine–Russian Conflict Theater. The UN Secretary-Normal and Stoltenberg- the NATO Chief react in confusion to the Russian annexation of the Eastern locations as if NATO is not in conflict with Russia but delivering assistance to defend Ukraine. They all viewed from a distance what was happening in Crimea given that 2014. They appear to deficiency the assurance and intellect to deal with abnormal emergencies and cry wolf at currently being unable to come across workable methods. To make peace with Russia and among Russia, Ukraine and the West, they will need new imaginative initiatives to speak and find out methods and signifies to stop the regional hostilities. When ignorant and wicked leaders transgress the limits of the Legal guidelines of God and concentrate on the innocents, normally they are established to be punished by God for violating the fundamental covenant of human lifetime on Earth. We simply call for adjust in the historic landscape.
Every single beginning has its end. Those hunting for armed forces confrontations and remedies are senseless figures. The few obsessed with invincible armies and political powers – the warriors as dreamers to handle and dominate us have driven the humanity to a awful feeling of helplessness about our upcoming. We are witnessing a increasing culture of domination by the similar as was in historical past – universally the self-centered maniacs – all producing significant fatalities and destruction to endanger lifestyle, human habitats and the sanctity of World Earth. The Will need is urgent to realize – how to transform the egoistic and embittered insanity of few warlords into equilibrium of well balanced relationship between Gentleman, Lifetime and God- presented residing Universe in which we reside all. If we bent on disregarding the residing Time and alternatives for tranquil adjust, our typical feeling could direct to a cataclysmic ending. We, the Men and women of Conscience invite you to RETHINK – who you are and your origin, and what everyday living and dying signify in the serious environment. To make peace and take care of the conflict peacefully, this creator proposed a rational framework of immediate communication concerning President Putin, President Biden, NATO, the EU, and Ukraine’s leadership at the earliest: “Why Russia, NATO, the EU and Ukraine can not Make Peace?” https://english.pravda.ru/viewpoint/152450-peace_ukraine/ https://www.uncommonthought.com/mtblog/archives/2022/06/22/global-conflict-management-why-cant-russia-nato-the-eu-and-ukraine-make-peace.php
