The following was printed in
the first edition of The Handstand on-line :
A PLEA FOR PEACE
AND JUSTICE AMONG WORLD
GOVERNMENTS
Sirs, Mesdames, in
addressing the UN and Governments of the European
Union and Internationally, may we ask how it is
that another month, another day, has passed
without political outcry against this dark stain
of War and indiscriminate Military violence on
the face of history, that has introduced the New
Millennium? A historical pause in Time,which
citizens of the world had hoped would introduce
new moral reflection and justice.
Surely the dark night of the soul has come for
the ordinary citizen who watches yet more elected
men and women submitting themselves to the
leadership of the puppets of power and finance.
In Palestine, where the geographic core of the
soul of mankind has lain as a palimpsest under
the signatures of time's and mankind's wrathful
hold on a concept of religious peace, that has
been sweeping the world for centuries, there is
now a suicidal threat, that in its true
configuration has now been seen to threaten the
sanity of the entire world.
The USA, in yet again dismissing the world's plea
for justice and peace, that your government
representatives constantly seek to push through
the Security Council of the United Nations, has
to be challenged by you, sirs. The UN Security
Council must be re-configured and this stain on
history placed in the forefront of political
action this year, this month. As citizens of the
world who must finally intermingle their outcry,
we address you ,we ask you to admit to your inner
minds the total abhorrence and despair we feel
when faced with the implacable fear of yet
another season of this colossal error of the
military solutions in the structure
of mankind's societies.
Only, when you men and women, who flaunt the
world's achievements in the palaces and
architectural splendours of Government buildings,
you, whose insecurity by vote and tolerance of
subject peoples brings about this intellectual
puppetry and criminal corruption, only, when you
bring up the problems of trust and conscience
into government mandate will the citizens of the
world be able to turn to you in confidence.
The route to dominance by military violence must
cease. The psychological irresponsibility of
freedom within the cowardice of weapons of war,
that has been allowed to usher in a new
millennium, that is clearly recognised by all
must be placed under final censure.
