Fight With Peace
By Marwa Balkar
November 30, 2015
Dear @realdonaldtrump, My name is Marwa, and I am a Muslim.
I heard you wanted us the start wearing ID badges,
so I decided to choose one for myself.
I am not easily identifiable as a Muslim just by looking at me,
so my new badge will let me display proudly who I am.
I chose the peace sign because it represents my Islam.
The one that taught me to oppose injustice and yearn for unity.
The one that taught me that killing one innocent life is equivalent
to killing humanity.
I heard you want to track us as well.
Great!
You can come with me on my Cancer Awareness walks at the local
middle school, or you can follow me to work where it's my job to
create happiness.
You can also see how my local mosque makes PB&J sandwiches
for the homeless and hosts interfaith dinners where everyone is
welcome.
Maybe then you'll see that me being Muslim doesn't make me any
less American than you are.
Maybe if you walk in my footsteps, you can see that I am not any
less human than you are.
Salaamu alaikum

Can Western Decadence Last?
Can Western Decadence Last?
By Adbusters.org
November 29, 2015
While the West has been living lavishly for sixty years, consuming
with such ferocity that the trajectory of the planet’s biosphere has
been forever altered, the rest of the world has become angry, sick
of it all and willing to do whatever it takes to produce a better way
of life for themselves.
Because after all of the promises made and broken by the World
Bank, the IMF, the United Nations, the rest of the world has lost
its patience.
The Islamic State is but a beginning of the kinds of self-organizing
that will occur once the latest round of pacifist, neo-political
activism fails.
The West is bloated, soft and decadent.
This decadence will not last; it never has and never will.

A Prayer For Thanksgiving
A Prayer For Thanksgiving
By Joseph Auslander
November 25, 2015
We thank you for our daily bread,
For faith by which the soul is fed,
For burdens given us to bear,
For hope that lifts the heart's despair.
We thank thee Lord, for eyes to see,
The truth that makes, and keeps, men free;
For faults - and the strength to mend them
For dreams - and courage to defend them.
We have so much to thank thee for,
Dear Lord, we beg not one boon more,
Peace in the hearts of all men living,
Peace in the whole world on this Thanksgiving.

Dogs of War
Dogs of War
By Pink Floyd

Dogs of war and men of hate
With no cause, we don't discriminate
Discovery is to be disowned
Our currency is flesh and bone
Hell opened up and put on sale
Gather 'round and haggle
For hard cash, we will lie and deceive
Even our masters don't know the web we weave
One world, it's a battleground
One world, and we will smash it down
One world ... One world
Invisible transfers, long distance calls,
Hollow laughter in marble halls
Steps have been taken, a silent uproar
Has unleashed the dogs of war
You can't stop what has begun
Signed, sealed, they deliver oblivion
We all have a dark side, to say the least
And dealing in death is the nature of the beast
One world, it's a battleground
One world, and we will smash it down
One world ... One world
The dogs of war don't negotiate
The dogs of war won't capitulate,
They will take and you will give,
And you must die so that they may live
You can knock at any door,
But wherever you go, you know they've been there before
Well winners can lose and things can get strained
But whatever you change, you know the dogs remain
One world, it's a battleground
One world, and we will smash it down
One world ... One world

Do Not Love The World
Do Not Love The World
By Expotera
Via - 1 John 2:15-17
November 22, 2015
Do not love the world or the things in the world.
If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
For all that is in the world--- the desires of the flesh and the desires of eyes and pride in possessions---is not from the Father, but is from the world.
And the world is passing away along with it's desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever.

The Eagle and The Snake
The Eagle and The Snake
By Omika Armstrong
November 19, 2015
The Eagle does not fight the snake on the ground.
It picks it up into the sky and changes the battle ground,
and then it releases the snake into the sky.
The snake has no stamina, no power, and no balance,
in the air.
It is useless, weak, and vulnerable, unlike on the ground
where it is powerful wise, and deadly.
Take your fight into the spiritual realm by praying and when you
are in the spiritual realm your, "Creator" takes over your battles.
Don't fight the enemy in his comfort zone, change the battle
grounds like the Eagle, and let your, "Creator" take charge
through your earnest prayer.
You'll be assured of clean victory.
Pray without ceasing.

Imagine
Imagine
By John Lennon

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world,
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one
