Got Peace?

If I hear one more idiot pundit from Fox, CNN or the Heritage Foundation/Institute/winger think-tank, claim the scuff between Israel and Hezbollah is World War III I'm gonna smile. Yes smile. Fight fire with peace.

Let's get this straight. Israel is acting like a huge asinine baby. Hezbollah is what American "Christocrats" (for lack of a better term) would give their right arms to be themselves in the USA. The Neocons have been getting off every day this started--it is the wet dream they have needed to kick off their "World War III" (they couldn't get enough traction in Iraq). Bush is lost--utterly out of his league. And because Bush *is* over his head ANY American citizen with brains instead of the Rapture/Fox/fecal matter between his or her ears will strive for peace, not war, at this juncture.

So why smile?

People who want war want your energy. They want your anger. When you lose your cool they win their war--against YOU! So don't give it to them. Think your own thoughts--even if what you think is that such folks are lunatics who deserve institutionalization--but when you're in the material world (you know, the one outside yur head), radiate PEACE.

Get out the peace signs, the smiley faces, the flower power--whatever it takes--and fight their fire with your peace. Don't regurgitate the fear. Bring reason back to the table. Show others how--be informed about the facts of the matter yourself--and be calm. It'll drive fear-mongers crazy!!!

That's okay. They eat their own anyway.
