We adults can pretend not to know or refuse to know the truths of what is really going on.

It is understandable when you have a job to protect and bills to pay and you are not so young, untainted by the hypocrisies of the elite groups of the world that you choose to be silent, disinterested and even jaded.  When you have so much going on, why bother studying the history of the middle east?  There is no immediate financial benefit  and/or you simply are not interested. Period. But we will end up paying for our complacency, disinterest and neutrality with the blood of our kids in the future.

If our kids' values, beliefs, skill sets do not align or benefit the white elite culture, they will be treated unequally and serve the elites forever.  Forever and status quo will continue.  

You are distracted by sending your kids to get the best SAT and ACT scores hoping that it will lead to the best choice of college and to the best paying jobs and so on and so forth. But that is not the road to future security.  

Obama is a tragic story.  President makers put Obama as the president.  But that was a show.  A propaganda made to believe that in USA, even the black can be a president.  A false picture.  He could not do much for the working people and his foreign policy aligned with the past presidents.  He was a guy from Hawaii and smiled a lot and was docile.  A good enough puppet for a show.  The laws are made in a way it always benefits the elites not the majority.  We just put a black guy as a president but nothing changes much.

Julian Assange revealed so many crimes and atrocities committed by the US government in the middle east and he is being punished for doing his job, a journalism.  If you don't know who he is, then that is my exact point.  US media do not share any pertinent information with tax payers like us.

We have a right to know where and how our tax money is used.  In fact, it is our duty to know not just right.

Our complacency, disinterest in the truth of the war happening thousands of miles away will have an impact on the future generation.  It sounds so far away but that far away is not so far and it is our children that will have to take the burden of our complacency.

The point- we should make every effort to play a small role as a grass root to include everyone for peace and justice, not just ours.

Go on social media and support by making comments and what have you to have your voices heard. a small role but every bit helps.

John F. Kennedy once said that peace for all is possible if you include everyone.  He is absolutely right.
