What ever happened to peace? All we do is assign blame. We never talk about how peace can happen on an individual level. If the Israeli and Palistinian people got together and deceided to live in harmony, without boarders the leaders would have no choice but to follow. In america we have the freedom to comment and point fingers at every nation in the world except our own. THIS COUNTRY funds ALL WARS. THIS COUNTRY has murder it's own people on its own soil. Kidnapped Africans and made them slaves that built this country and gave them nothing in return not even the right to vote. THIS COUNTRY dropped 2 BOMBS on JAPAN. And one in PHILADELPHIA! THIS COUNTRY PROMOTES WAR ALL OVER THE WORLD! And we the people, bitch out Israel, South Africa, and North Korea. WE gave them the guns. WE the lazy sheep that we are pay taxes on everything and that money funds WAR ALL OVER THE WORLD! We need to wake up and realize our bloated, egotistical commentary means nothing if we do not speak of peace, erasing all boarders, doing away with the "passport" system, and crimininal polititians who rob our children of an education, animals of the right to live, and the earth of a clean environment. We can blame Israel all we want for being the Middle East's South Africa. But, the fact remains WE the UNITED STATES put them there. It is we who are guilty. WE keep the wheels of injustice turning, through tax dollars, a bloated military budget and a false attitude of always being RIGHT. No sorry ass comment on some website is going to change that.
