Peace or War?

The choice is ours!

Peace is a small word, but the gains would be unimaginable.

War is an even smaller word, but has devastating consequences.

Which would you choose?

It sounds simple enough to achieve, but many have tried and many more have died in the attempt to see a world of harmony and love.

Profit and power is put before any kind of peaceful solution to international conflicts.

In the Middle East, countries who have in the past been friends and allies in the past, are killing and maiming each other's citizens on a daily basis.

As we know, war means money for already extremely wealthy individuals and corporations. These wars in this very unstable areas are ideal for the multinational companies to make vast profits. The risks to them and the relatively low number of US or European troops and journalists are minimal.

Regions like this only need to be stoked up now and again to keep the pot of war and profit simmering away.

Think about this logically. Why is the Syrian conflict happening in the first place? Yes, there was unrest against President Assad, but the situation was more or less under control.

Some well placed newspaper articles and television news items in the western media were used to get the international community on the side of the "rebels" and make them think they had a just cause and that the overthrow of the Assad regime would be swift.

This was the last thing the international money men wanted. They needed a long drawn out and if possible a bloody conflict in order to maximise their return for arming both sides.

I say both sides, but of course it was and is much more complicated than that. There were, and still are numerous factions fighting, so this is only to the advantage of the armaments manufacturers worldwide.

Once the "Islamic State" or ISIS got involved, then things got a lot more serious. Serious in a very profitable way for the financial backers. This was going to keep the civil war going on for a very long time.

At some point, someone, probably Assad, will have been declared the winner and "peace" will be declared.

This usually happens when the media begin to see what was obvious from the beginning, and that the war was pointless in the first place and any real continuation would make no difference other than killing more innocent people.

The Iraq situation has made some people billions of pounds or dollars and continues so to do. The current state of affairs is the pushing out of the remaining ISIS terrorists from Iraq and trying to keep the Kurdish and Turkish troops from killing each other. This is also putting money into the armament companies and filling the offshore bank accounts of these vile people who swap weapons for gold.

Wars will be switched from the Middle East to central Africa as people see what is happening, and begin to ask awkward questions. We are already being prepared for serious bloodshed in parts of the African continent.

News bulletins are appearing, giving grave warnings about the possibility of several civil wars taking place in the near future.

Once again, the people who control and manipulate the public, are changing tack and moving to more profit fertile lands. The African continent has civil wars going on under the radar all the time, but when the puppet masters decide to move, the low profile war gets raised to worldwide status.

The other conflicts still go on, but once the media have been told to switch to another area of the planet, it is almost as if the previous war has been resolved and peace has broken out!

This is why peace isn't wanted by the puppet masters.

Peace is very unprofitable and who needs guns and tanks if we are all living side by side and getting on with our lives?

Please don't let my personal take on this, deter you from keeping on trying to convince governments and countries not to base their economies on weapons manufacture.

Change is needed before the next "local" conflict comes to a country near you.

It's very possible that with the Middle East completely war weary and millions of people displaced and destitute, with have no appetite for more killing, and the puppet masters deciding possibly Italy or Greece are ripe for civil war, you just might want to think......"maybe I could have done more to stop this"!

Now is the time to join with like minded people and forget our minor differences.

Get the message across that war and destruction isn't inevitable without the collusion of major economies and the people who govern them.

We have to think in a more collective way and in a less selfish way.

If a united front is shown by a majority of the population, then politicians who do as their puppet masters tell them, might think again and decide that it is people who are important, not multi-billionaires who only want more and more from a rapidly diminishing asset.

Much more effort is needed to allow people to see what is being done in their names by the unscrupulous scum sucking parasites who are in charge at the moment.

The present intervention of the USA in Syria shows just how much all sides want this money making venture to continue. No one cares about the civilian casualties. They are just an inconvenient statistic to the puppet masters' plans.

Peace is definitely possibly, but only if egos and principles are put aside in the name of progress. Can it happen? Of course it can.

But will it happen?

That is the biggest and probably most unanswerable question!
