Dearest all, brothers & sisters in soul, I think that we must etsablish the co-existance, the respect to religion beliefs - political and ethnic rights, tradation, way of living everywhere on planet Earth. We are all brothers and sisters, but all above cause arguments and hard words between persons who belive and gight for the global Peace, Love & Harmony. Based on the current status and actions of hummanity, I cokme to conlusion that hummanity is still not ready to undertsand and perform peace - love - hamrony. Unfortunatelly for us the logic humans, the animals prove that are closer to respect the diferent. I attach a video for it, in this note. My father's ascestor's graves are in Pontos district, in the present Turkiye. Should I start a war to take back these lands, or I have to live in peace and harmony with my neighbours Turkiyes? Greeks according to Plato were living all around Medditerrnian sea in very big num,bers, like the frogs around alike, as he said. Should I start a war with all nations living there? Slaves came in balkan Greek lands after 700 a.C. Should I start a war to take back these lands? WAR is a word which must be disappeared from all languages and our life for ever. That's a dream of mine and yours years now. Is that effective today? My father and my mother gamilies lost too many members in the wars... But both my parents teach me even today in the age of 58 (they still see me as child) to help, to love, to protect, to be usefull in the global and local community. Let's act all together for our common targets of love, co-existance, peace, harmony. or else there is noone one else to do it. withg love and respect takis ioannides, student of this Life 2013/2/22 Mazin Qumsiyeh <mazin@xxxxxxxxxxxx> > I first must tell you that I resent the orientalist and demeaning attitude > that you have Leo.
