The Latest Gassing of Citizens by Assad, the leader of Syria, Being Debated Online. Why and Who Else Involved?

As little as I follow the play by play in the Middle East, the news online calling out that innocent (or any for that matter) people, including women and children, were killed by the leader of their own country in Syria by Assad, horrified me as likely it did most people in the civilized world. What is the world coming to, even in these 'sophisticated, we should know better' times?

What is the point of progress if such depravity can unfold, especially without warning as someone who has kidnapped others is apt to do to bargain for lives or reward to make a point or explain their 'thinking' (or 'Stinkin' thinkin' as some abuse counselors introduce the thought processes of an abuser as.' It is twisted, not humane, often narcissistic--whatever serves their needs, whims, views, sense of power and demeans anyone or thing, system or intervenor.

To an abuser, all others are dog doo to wipe off his shoe. Other people do not have humanity or value. Strangely that attitude is one that many traditions indicate is a sign of being 'less than human', more savage or animal-instinct like. Perhaps some abusers are 'animals who have not evolved emotionally and spiritually into human form.'

Sri Chinmoy and many other systems of thinking about the human experience indicate that we may all have lived multiple lifetimes and evolved over millenia (make that millions of years) from ameobas (ya gotta start somewhere in the world of matter) on up through frogs and fishies, winged ones and walking ones and only in the last few minutes as talking and oh yes,

Thinking ones...and in the last few seconds evolutionarily emotionally and spiritually. Maybe we've been there for a full minute of more. but with a Hitler or Assad operating in full brute mode, and sadly with lots of key someones backing them whether we can identify them or not, (and that may take decades to learn about yet again as my Mom would say, "Nobody fools G-d.' ( the "o' not used out of respect for the way more devout Jewish people and others believe  the name is too Holy to write out or even sometimes to speak.)

Quantum physics (and metaphysics I believe) is indicating there is a huge connection among all beings and the places we live, and even beyond time and space as we've traditionally considered them. If my words and delivery are not perfect, I beg your pardon, but I'm still evolving! 

I wanted to share my posts from Facebook which came on the tail of many (a dozen or so) comments pummeling Trump and others who endorsed bombing  without Congressional consults (which truthfully I hadn't heard about as I was caring for someone whose ill and didn't bump into news headlines the other day, but will do so next.) I had read on a report from Bill Palmer (no relation to me) that he surmised Trump was up to something since the troops were in place Before the gassing occurred. His wild guess was that Putin may have wanted Assad to bomb his people so Trump would have a reason to go to war with Syria.

The shocking guess Bill Palmer also suggested was that if Trump did go into Syria, he would likely take down the rebels who were fighting Assad. It's like the big chess game I saw in the Mall in Whilte Plains, yet not in full view of the public eye. Bill Palmer assures us that Assad and Trump  and Putin would be banking on us Not Knowing what the heck is going on, so allow for some Wild West kind of intervention and be content that Something was done and yet stay dumb enough to let the dust settle for too long before we realized "Uh-oh, we helped The Wrong Side!!" I once made a great score in basketball in sixth grade, with my team shouting and some of the crowd and None of the other team trying to stop me...

I thought I was too fast for them and they deemed it hopeless to stop such a talented terror like myself heading with determination to my goal. I made the basket with a diligent lay-up shot (that's where you leap up with your knee farthest from the basket up to give you that extra boost and sense of balance in midair and extending that same side's arm up to aim the ball to the top part of the square marking on the hoop for it to then rebound off of sweetly down into the hoop. Thanks for this moment to walk down memory basketball lane especially while the national sports programs are being sliced and diced, according to a tidbit I saw at the end of the moving documentary on Women's LaCrosse called Keepers of the Game.) Okay, so I made the basket but it was for The Wrong Team.

I think They got my points. Now come back around to the tragedy in Syria and the Middle East in general where one poster on Facebook said even Congressional support, Obama went into Iraq and it cost billions and as we all hopefully know, "There were no weapons of Mass Destruction found."

The fellow Scott someone I believe did come to our Salisbury CT area and give a talk specifically on that. We have some amazing Salisbury Forum speakers as well as The Berkshire Land Trust and Schumacher Institute offering programs and promoting people who can share amazing insights throough their books. See their sites and look up things about The Commons to learn more about a more balanced way of living and keeping some resources for public use.

 Now I will post my comments (in hopes they weren't deleted for being off-topic. About that, I hope more people can Try to Go Off Topic now and then (also known as Going on a Tangent, one of my favorite places to go.) How can we learn something new or really different if we don't allow ourselves to make 'dreamlike or otherwise not obvious linear connections? I

f we are in an operation, hopefully the surgeon will stick to the map, plan and right patient, but other places may be served by the serediptious meeting of the minds and 'going off topic'. I saw a friend recently who reminded me of the details when I inquired about a life-saving insight that came to two doctors who worked in the same large building but in different departments and never or hardly ever saw each other. They happened to get in an elevator when her doctor was feeling that all hope was lost.

The other fellow, a research doctor, may have inquired after he mentioned his situation or in response to a 'How are You?" type hello. The researcher had a possible solution to the doctor's problem, a way to screen or remove a tumor I think my friend filled me in. Well, I likely will want her to share that with more details, and that was over 30 years ago.

If miracles could happen like that (and for thousands who have had such medical and other life-saving measures, meetings, close-calls be not a final roll call, and on a larger scale peace treatings and some good come from steadfast efforts, why not consider what other Bigger Realms of Blessings and Amazing Basketball type plays for the Common Good could be made for US-All in Humanity?

I will get posting now, and mention that Steven Greer free documentary which has been viewed by over a million people could be the next turning of the tide for winning in the Human Race (the only race to win, not the nuclear, military-industrial or other abusive dictator types). It's called Sirius and his next one he needs funds for please of any amount but in this case the bigger the better..Unacknowledged.
