"Call it 'Peace' or call it 'Treason,'
"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. This is not a way of life at all in any true sense. Under the clouds of war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron." -- Dwight D. Eisenhower

Happy earth-day to you ...
Universal Declaration Of Human Rights:
the "CONSTITUTION OF THE WORLD".
The international community declared over 40 years
ago-- for the first time in history-- that every human
being has inalienable rights. The Universal Declaration
of Human Rights committed governments to respect these
rights in their own countries and to promote them throughout
the world.
Today, in public, the governments of over 150 countries
pledge to uphold the Universal Declaration. But in practice,
many governments deny their citizens these fundamental rights.
Read it and weep.
plant MAGIC dust
expect hope doubt
(wonder mistrust)
despair
and right
where soulless our
(with all their minds)
eyes blindly stare
life herSelf stands
