    Hello, my dear friends,
    The economic and security situation in Gaza is not good.
    There are many poor and unemployed people; there is no glimmer of hope or change. Everyone is exhausted and needs help. 🙏😞

      Every time causes an explosion, they are polluting the planet. (Same is true for any nation causing black smoke to rise into the clouds.) I do not consent to funding these wars.

      Hypocrites want to limit the tiny use of fuel and energy used by us civilians because of [insert propaganda keyword here]. Yet they are the worst offenders in destroying our planet and polluting our air, water, and food.

            Whoever captured this is a genius. The shot perfectly captures the atmosphere of the past four years: tragedies happen every day, but there are so many that nobody pays attention anymore. Everyone is just trying to carry on. The mind refuses to process what’s happening and retreats into a kind of shell.

                Horses were used in World War II.

                This is of interest to me since the Bible has many verses that refer to horses being used in battle. Will horses be used again in war in the present time and future?

                         “I always found faith a great comfort. Otherwise it is too much, Phryne. Too cruel. To think that all the lads, all those boys, were just gone, blown out like candles. Don’t you agree?”
                         “I do,” said Phryne. “I like to think of them sitting down with all their mates to a serious drinking session, washed clean of mud and stench, all shiny and jolly. And if that doesn’t constitute heaven, I’m not going; though, of course, I might not have the option.”

                                      A quotation from Richard Steele

                                      Who can have lived in an army, and in a serious hour reflect upon the many gay and agreeable men that might long have flourished in the arts of peace, and not join with the imprecations of the fatherless and widow on the tyrant to whose ambition they fell sacrifices? But gallant men, who are cut off by the sword, move rather our veneration than our pity, and we gather relief enough from their own contempt of death, to make it no evil, which was approached with so much cheerfulness, and attended with so much honour. But when we turn our thoughts from the great parts of life on such occasions, and instead of lamenting those who stood ready to give death to those from whom they had the fortune to receive it; I say, when we let our thoughts wander from such noble objects, and consider the havoc which is made among the tender and the innocent, pity enters with an unmixed softness, and possesses all our souls at once.

                                                            Ukraine has conscription. Russia does also, but with the option of alternative civilian service, like work in hospitals, or post offices. They are paid employees, not soldiers.

                                                            Ukraine is under martial law. Their men are forced to join the military. There is no civilian option.

                                                            Russia, as a whole, is not under martial law, and civilian service is an option.

                                                                              There are three great destroyers of mankind, Plague, Famine, and Hero. Plague and Famine destroy your persons only, and leave your goods to your Heirs; but Hero, when he comes, takes life and goods together; his business and glory it is, to destroy man and the works of man.

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.

It is two electric power plants, each serving a town of 60,000 population. It is two fine, fully equipped hospitals. It is some 50 miles of concrete highway. We pay for a single fighter with a half million bushels of wheat. We pay for a single destroyer with new homes that could have housed more than 8,000 people.
                                                                                                                                 This, I repeat, is the best way of life to be found on the road the world has been taking. This is not a way of life at all, in any true sense. Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron.

                                                                                                                                                                                  At length, after infinite effort, the two parties come into actual juxtaposition; and Thirty stands fronting Thirty, each with a gun in his hand. Straightway the word “Fire!” is given: and they blow the souls out of one another; and in place of sixty brisk useful craftsmen, the world has sixty dead carcasses, which it must bury, and anew shed tears for. Had these men any quarrel? Busy as the Devil is, not the smallest! They lived far enough apart; were the entirest strangers; nay, in so wide a Universe, there was even, unconsciously, by Commerce, some mutual helpfulness between them. How then? Simpleton! their Governors had fallen-out; and, instead of shooting one another, had the cunning to make these poor blockheads shoot.

What began as outrage over a conflict in the quickly spilled onto streets, , workplaces and platforms. Too often, the distinction between criticisms the policies of the government and citizens living in Europe simply disappeared.

Increasingly, in , , or are treated not primarily as , , or citizens, but as representatives of Israel, expected to answer for events thousands of kilometers away. , one of history's oldest prejudices, has returned in modern form.

                                                                                                                                                                                                I suggest that the real objective of Socialism is not happiness. Happiness hitherto has been a by-product, and for all we know it may always remain so. The real objective of Socialism is human brotherhood. This is widely felt to be the case, though it is not usually said, or not said loudly enough. Men use up their lives in heart-breaking political struggles, or get themselves killed in civil wars, or tortured in the secret prisons of the Gestapo, not in order to establish some central-heated, air-conditioned, strip-lighted Paradise, but because they want a world in which human beings love one another instead of swindling and murdering one another. And they want that world as a first step. Where they go from there is not so certain, and the attempt to foresee it in detail merely confuses the issue.

Well, we now have it in our power to be comfortable, as our ancestors had not. Nature may occasionally hit back with an earthquake or a cyclone, but by and large she is beaten. And yet exactly at the moment when there is, or could be, plenty of everything for everybody, nearly our whole energies have to be taken up in trying to grab territories, markets and raw materials from one another. Exactly at the moment when wealth might be so generally diffused that no government need fear serious opposition, political liberty is declared to be impossible and half the world is ruled by secret police forces. Exactly at the moment when superstition crumbles and a rational attitude towards the universe becomes feasible, the right to think one’s own thoughts is denied as never before. The fact is that human beings only started fighting one another in earnest when there was no longer anything to fight about.
