January 2020 Starting Off With Hopes then Sorrow and Serious Concerns for US All, Ukraine, Canada,Iran and Iraq

Here's one of a few videos I took time to see this morning, https://youtu.be/EjqqUhmhRWc. The video about what happened prior to the January 3rd, 2020 Ukranian Flight 752 which crashed by 6:16 am due to an 'unintentional' strike by Iran as far as the reports are indicating.

The crash initially was reported as due to a fire on the plane. In late December 2019,  first on the 27th there was a small attack on an Iraqi defense area which killed one American civilian worker. That was then retaliated by the US on the 29th with attacks on five targets which claimed 25 lives of the Iraqi militia possibly with Iranian backing. The targets included weapons supplies and military bases.

On the heels of the funerals and concerns about those air strikes, there was a large group march and  invasive protest  by a few hundred people on a reception office but not the main compound of the American Embassy in Bagdhad, Iraq. While guards monitored the situation from rooftops, the reception area was damaged, the riot was stopped with the use of tear gas.

Then President Trump declared there would be retaliation without consulting Congress, according to reports from US Senator Nancy Pelosi. He sent 750 more troops to Iraq where there are already 5000 stationed.

Then came the drone strike at an airport in Bagdhad which resulted in the death of  Iranian General Soleimani on January 3rd, 2020. Iran retaliated by striking at housing bases of US military in Iraq, though since there were no American casualties President Trump did not continue with violence, but rather with increased sanctions.

Iran has tried for over two decades to remove American support in Iraq, according to a commentator, Rep. Jason Crow, on MSNBC.

Rep. Crow asserted we need to engage with Iraq, that the actions of President Trump seemed impulsive and far less than desirable or necessary. He asserted that General Soleimani has been a longtime concern but 'taking him out' as John Kerry also said was never considered a good strategy with a positive outcome of all the options on the table. Meanwhile the "Commander In Tweet" (as a sweatshirt at Robin's Candy in Great Barrington MA among other places declared) is sending his own messages to the world, with little or no advising.

I heard more about the Tweeting President from Peter Baker, the NY Times White House Correspondent who meets regularly with Trump and wakes up 'never knowing what the President is thinking or tweeting' so waits until 10am to consider the many topics and 'disasters' that may only be a tweet away.

That's my summary from what I heard Peter Baker share at a talk from The Salisbury Forum at The Hotchkiss School a few months ago in 2019, and is online. Likely to brave understanding the Middle East we need to think carefully about how we could reign in President Donald Trump's 'free speech' to tweet as he likes since the United States is not Trump. He is doing a job that likely needs an updated job description.

The concerns that could be researched by more people of the free world and shown support are numerous in the Middle East. A few that were very concerning I saw expressed in other youtube videos from the BBC on Hope Hospital (a children's hospital that was bombed a few times in Aleppo Syria in 2016 yet was rebuilt by many organizations and is operational) yet also about the Peace Maker Hevrin, a beautiful woman leader activist seeking to help people in Syria but killed by Turkish militia, and many other concerns such as 'Honour Killings' of women by their male relatives who objectify their bodies and maintain strict control over their freedom and humanity. Leaving Syria at risk for more conflict and takeover is hurting the people severely.

We need to pay attention to the suffering in the world and consider ways to help us all evolve with love as many healers are saying is the new revolution for humanity.

If people cannot consider doing life in a more loving way there may be changes in our human frequencies that may have a bigger influence than many are hearing about or considering.

Many people set on doing harm or being too self-centered may want the option of 'doing things differently for a better outcome.'

Apparently from MSNBC reports that John Bolton says he approves of the killing of General Soleimani yet also stated he is now ready to speak in the impeachment trial against Trump. Donald Trump said he feels 'we have to protect Presidential privilege.' The commentator on MSNBC was sharing that John Bolton may be wanting a war with Iran but not with President Trump leading that. I am watching a bit of Michael Moore commentating on Trump and asking what other abuses of power did Trump make when in office as President. There will be discussions in the Senate trial about 'for the President' versus 'for the Constitution.'

The next MSNBC topic being covered by author Michael Mann in Australia with footage of the dry country of Australian bush fires perishing.  The discussion about the kind of challenges causing the fires are widespread. He says if we do not reduce our carbon emissions and risk for more more climate change effects whether fires, floods, high heat or cold, lack of greenery and more. Coal is being identified as the most damaging yet many are allowing for more coal production. All forms of fossil fuels (oil, petroleum, gasoline and natural gas) need reductions.

Australia is still promoting mining of coal. Sadly they are reporting that a billion animals have perished in the Australian fires. With greater insight into the role and ability of animals, let's tune into their critical and healing role on our earth.

See more about healing as humans on many blogs  and books such as Riding the Wave of Change by Eve Wilson and those from Judy Satori, Dr. Laurie Moore, Jennifer McLean (who has a monthly online prayer circle on the 20th of each month in 2020), Tesla Healing by Anya Petrovic, The Reconnection by Eric Pearl, most faiths with respect  for divine and human collaboration for healing humanity and the earth and atmosphere and galaxy...and more. We need to appreciate the powerful new 'game rules and options' for all of us to live reasonably and respectfully.

Change is in the air and pressure to address many concerns is the equation we would want to appreciate. See what NoLiesRadio.org has to say as well with folks like Dr. Steven Greer who has worked for decades at educating the world and has documentaries.
