I hear you and we always like Peace to bring change. We cannot have the perpetual movement of peace be destroyed by violence though. This is where the confusion exits. And at this point you must admire these students and youth of Egypt.
But I also believe Dr King was 100% correct and its proven through History. And the movement of Egypt reminds me very much of the Civil Rights and Peace movements of the 60’s. Maybe these youth of Egypt can wake up a sleeping world. The US has been sleepwalking in silence a very long time also, and accepting whatever they are told as factual. We have become the laughing stock of the world. And if that wasn’t the truth I wouldn’t be on this forum talking to begin with.
“Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed.” “WE THE PEOPLE” Means everyone must speak up, not think everyone else is speaking for you. We want to hear what YOU have to say! Not think there are enough voices speaking up around you, to make up for what your have to say. Didn’t we all take this class?
“He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it, is really cooperating with it.”
“History will have to record that the greatest tragedy of this period of social transition was not the strident clamor of the bad people, but the appalling silence of the good people.”
“I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant.”
“A riot is the oppressed language of the unheard.”
“Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?’”
Dr Martin Luther King Jr.
Those students fought because they were confronted by violence and they refused to go quietly into the night. I find it very hard to believe the students will be found to have anything to do with the Coptic Christians slaughter. Very much on the contrary I believe.
The only question that remains is can the demonstations continue to drive towards the intended goal without being suppressed. And the moment I would say yes. For the simple reason that a good act eats away at the conscious of the silent good people and it has a domino affect. And at some point has to force others to speak up. The only alternative I see possible is an attack of brutal force by pure evil. I find it hard to believe the world would stand by and watch that right now. Especially when it was so clearly expessed that persecution of Israel is not on the table.
They have been riding the Jews like broken mules since the Holy Land been the Holy Land. You would think we have traveled far enough down the road of civil man to understand everyone has the right to live. No one is more important than anyone else. And the only possible correct solution could be to stop killing till we could find truth. And admit as humans that its very possible we may not have the entire truth of mans existance on earth, never mind the universe correct yet. And until we do we’ll have to work on it “together”.
The concern is not if each one believe’s each other Faith is accurate. The concern is, can we stop the slaughter to find the Truth? Lets arrive alive together then we’ll work on the rest.
If Egypt can motivate the surrounding countrys to take a similiar course of action. Which it already has to a large extent. Then it would go a very long way to stop the violence with radical Islam and to free Iran also. Then just maybe we can ALL Together start freeing these other forgotten dictatorships like Cuba and Nother Korea. We read History, and the evil empires that existed, and we are appauled and wonder how in the world that was allowed to continue. Yet we allow it to happen right this moment.
Its all well and fine to debate religion, but when we talk Human Rights, we all need to step off the soap box of religion and talk simply sound moral and ethic values. Life, Peace, Equality etc. Homo Sapien just hasn’t hasn’t travel as far from animal and barbaric as we all would all like to pretend and purpose in the idea of indivdual beliefs. We do know those that clearly have shown to perpetuate peace in history though. And what has bought modern man to this point.
We need to know at the uncoming primary elections in the US. Exactly where we are going with this country. And the candidates need to take their time and explain to everyone like they are 7 years old. And if there is something that the people of the US want to know. Than speak up, and it need be revealed. The quiet, secret government exists because we allow it to exist. And the “On the Need to basis” well, today we all need to know. How about we start there? And if everyone keeps thinking that everything is fine, don’t worry about it. Than at some point this country once again will be at the doorstep in DC by the millions. Its a fact.
If you want to study the social/political agenda of any country, just study hell. And it happens cause we continue to allow it to happen. So quickly we say, its not my business. But it will be your childrens business or theres. So there is not true saftly in the little personl bubble you call your world. So lets solve the problem while some can think on their feet. And then leave a clear record for future generations who are having the same problem of seeing the forest from below the trees.
Just Saying, Take a look at it. If the shoe fits wear it. Geez they killed King and Kennedy and its been 50 years of slow decline to mediocrity. We may not be here to see the results, but it sure is time to start the process again.
Its amazing how a couple deaths of great thinkers can shut everyone up, and allow the creeping disease called evil to again take root.

Things will likely get much, much worse before they get better. Pray for Egypt, pray for Libya, pray for Bahrain, pray for Iran…the entire Middle East needs prayers, not so that they get this or that type of government, but so that they wisely respect the human dignity of all their neighbors, regardless of what kind of government comes in place of the unpopular dictators.
