Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as oneImagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us... more

A project attempting to bridge neighboring Israeli and Palestinian communities thru a series of ecologically designed paths, each relate to waters. Tsur Hadassah and Wadi Fukin, Israeli settlement and Palestinian village, are separated by the Green Line. This photo set shows participants from Israel, Palestine and Jordan meeting, discussing, planning, appreciating the earth—witnessing its trauma, experiencing a growth of hope.

Amid the horror I feel for the bloodshed in the middle east, at this moment, I am also joyful that these people are working organically to end this insanity.
Look at these beautiful human beings and how they smile together...we are all so much alike! The flow of Billions of Dollars from war profiteers and their media machine can sweep away our rational thinking.
Our fear and distrust of each other is ultimately profitable for the War Machine.
Money has power to do bad or good.
Look at the lovely man in the album...he looks like an uncle to me. He doesn't inherently want to harm me because I happen to be born a Jew. He fears Israel Government's current machinery of war as I fear the Palestinian current machinery of blood with its Hamas leadership.
Most of us should realize that all of Israeli Government is not bad...just scared to death...and not all of Palestinian Government are bad...just scared also. Both with good reason. There is corruption on all sides that should be clean up.
How wonderful this would be if we could all exchange Organic Farming techniques and recipes instead of bombs.
Obama could throw enormous funds on this project as well as Seeds of Peace and Hand to Hand Schools..this would be a good start....identity what works and then replicate it.
Franchise this for Peace!

I used to be called a dreamer when I was growing up but I like this phrase.
Maybe most of of are dreamers and now through Technology we can indeed live as one...or in that direction.
We are there. Fight for Free Press!

Bill Moyers sits down with history and international relations expert and former US Army Colonel Andrew J. Bacevich who identifies three major problems facing our democracy: the crises of economy, government and militarism, and calls for a redefinition of the American way of life
September 26, 2008
As campaign ads urge voters to consider who will be a better "Commander in Chief," Andrew J. Bacevich — Professor of International Relations at Boston University, retired Army colonel, and West Point graduate — joins Bill Moyers on the JOURNAL to encourage viewers to take a step back and connect the dots between U.S. foreign policy, consumerism, politics, and militarism.
Bacevich begins his new book, THE LIMITS OF POWER: THE END OF AMERICAN EXCEPTIONALISM, with an epigraph taken from the Bible: "Put thine house in order." Bacevich explained his choice to Bill Moyers:Bill Moyers sits down with history and international relations expert and former US... more

Perhaps the single greatest gift that our democracy affords us is the opportunity to change course when things have gotten off-track.
Eight years ago, many were saying that elections didn't matter and that there was very little difference between our major political parties. However, after eight years of failed policies from George W. Bush and Dick Cheney, showing contempt for our Constitution, and most disturbingly of all, denying the climate crisis that now threatens the very future of human civilization, I think almost everyone agrees that elections matter a great deal.
With the election less than 42 days away and all eyes watching Democrats to see if we will unite and act together to create that change, each of us has a personal responsibility to help advance Democratic campaigns that do justice to the unbelievably high stakes in this election. To encourage you to act immediately, House Democrats are matching your gifts 2-to-1 before the September 30th FEC reporting deadline – the last date to effectively purchase ads.
Contribute $20.08, $35, or more today and your gift will be matched TRIPLING your impact before the last chance to buy ads on September 30th.
On so many critical issues that will define the century, from solving the climate crisis, and defending our nation, to safeguarding our constitutional liberties, and building a modern, strong economy, over the next 42 days, you and I must seize the chance to boldly move America in a New Direction.
Contribute $20.08, $35, or more today and your gift will be matched by House Democrats 2-to-1 TRIPLING your impact before the last chance to buy ads on September 30th.
The choice in front of us is truly profound. John McCain, Sarah Palin, and their would-be Republican allies in Congress are openly endorsing the very same policies followed for eight years by the Bush-Cheney White House – and actually promising more of the same. On the other hand, Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and more Democrats in Congress offer a much different choice.
As clear as the choice is to us, the hard truth is that neither electing Obama-Biden nor expanding our Democratic Majority in Congress is a foregone conclusion. With perhaps the most consequential election in all of our lifetimes now just 42 days away, please stand with the DCCC to give America the kind of White House and the kind of Congress that reflects the values, priorities, and the most American of ideas that our best days are still in front of us.
Contribute $20.08, $35, or more today and your gift will be matched by House Democrats 2-to-1 TRIPLING your impact before the last chance to buy ads on September 30th.
All the Best,
Al Gore

"This is outrageous. Bush wants taxpayers to give his administration a $700 billion check with no strings attached, which they'll hand over to the Wall Street firms that got us into this financial mess.
Would it help families struggling to keep their homes? NO. Do taxpayers get any share of the firms we're bailing out, so we can benefit from any eventual profit? NO. Would the firms we're bailing out be required to stop paying their executives multimillion-dollar salaries? NO. This is a pure giveaway.
I signed a petition urging Congress to put Main Street before Wall Street, and to not give Bush a blank check. Can you join me at the link below?
