Oh if after centuries, the world could reach your conclusions. But, I am afraid, it may never.

Sane advice. Wish people were more tolerant and less violent.

Sorry Drohan, didn't mean to skip your comment..got ahead of myself

Yes, the light of peace is the beacon to reach for..Awareness that it can be attained is the first step, hopefully one that leads to more thinking, more yearning for release from the status quo of wars and destruction, more communication, more ideas and visions strengthening. I understand and appreciate your awareness, Dear Lady...Thank you for the excellent comment.

And object they/we should, BC A

Because their full story is seldom told. I spent some time on a reservation whilst growing up and saw the many injustices up close and personal. But I also learned there is a dignity and lovely grace in non-violent teachings/protest - a choice that once committed to in the spirit of life, cannot be bought, sold or stolen. This post was written with the recent, horrific bloodshed ongoing in the Middle East in mind. The references to Native Americans is intended as a historical clue for those still clueless about "collective punishment."
Thank you for your input.

Great thoughts, Kabu! Inner peace is a big key

Just imagine if government leaders weren't driven to their policies by ego insecurities; an overblown sense of superiority and/or entitlement, both personal and nationalistic - boggles the mind..
Thank you for sharing.

 Basically in the case of films Native Americans object to being portrayed constantly as the attackers on the offense love. Indeed humans act savagely. The United States today plays dumb to taking their land and acts holier than thou in foreign policy. BCA, Bill*s Cae

in the strong light Feeling your pain RAY ..I WINDER SOME TIMES TOO ..if the people truly can't see or they decided not to see ..wishing that each one see himself..the truth has a strong light but those people sleep so deep during the day and they get up at  the night for that they can't see the sunny light ...if the people stayed as they are then truly they will fail to be human ..thanks for your feeling ..thanks for your humanity .as only  the human who can feel the pain ..who see despite the darkness ..who see in the strong light
