Let's Help Save The Women & Promote World Peace, Love & Unity

Think It's Time To Pay Attention To What Women Have To Say About World Peace?

As a fine artist and graphic designer, I have had the privilege of working with some of the most gifted, conscious and productive women in the world. All of these warm souls I have worked with have either started their own non-profits and/or are totally committed to some type of charity or foundation. All of them want World Peace and all of them are well aware of the fact that war is nothing more that an over the top male testosterone fueled form of politically sanctioned and federally funded group madness.

They also know that women are not the authors of war but are usually sucked up into the madness of war and conflict along with the children because mankind feels it's their patriotic duty to accept the madness as unavoidable and necessary in order to bring peace. Only men can deduce that you must make war, usurp kingdoms, kill and destroy another culture in order to make peace and preserve life.   

I have learned that women can't believe that mankind has the ability to convince himself that war, death and murder is totally acceptable to God as long as we are fighting for freedom, land, diamonds, gold, oil or any convenient, trumped up charges to control another culture or it's resources.

Whether it's on the streets of Baghdad or the streets of Compton, any excuse will do for man to do battle. Apparently men just love the thrill of the fight and conflict as a way of expressing his validity, his courage and his masculine potency. I guess the Super Bowl, the World Series and the NBA Playoffs are not enough to satisfy our thirst for conflict. 

Couldn’t we keep a lot more people alive if we just started to listen to what more women have to say about avoiding war, avoiding deadly conflict and building real peace? It would be a heck of a lot cheaper to finance real peace initiatives than to continue financing an ill-advised war that’s already cost the US a half a trillion dollars, 3,600 US lives with numbers still climbing and no real exit strategy in sight. 

UN Security Council Resolution 1325 was passed unanimously on October 31st, 2000. Resolution (S/RES/1325) is the first resolution ever passed by the Security Council that specifically addresses the impact of war on women, and women's contributions to conflict resolution and sustainable peace.

When the United Nations Security Council Resolution 1325 was passed back in 2000, it was designed to take a much more comprehensive approach to involving Women in the "World Peace Building Process". It was created as a much more powerful vehicle to actively position Women into real stations of power on behalf of dealing with a real "World Peace Process". It is now 2007 and October 31st, 2007 will be the seventh anniversary. What happened?

There was a lot of media hype and big fanfare surrounding UN Resolution 1325 as if mankind somehow finally realized that Women do not start wars, they do not sustain wars nor do they support the net results of a war that causes the senseless deaths and loss of their biological sons and daughters. Women have known for ages that all Wars, Killing, Death, Bombing and Destruction have always been men's work 99.9% of the time.

Women don't start wars, men do. So whatever really happened to the purpose of UN Resolution 1325? Was it just a placebo resolution designed to pacify the Jane Fonda's and other outspoken female anti-war leaders? Was it just a big publicity campaign with no real bite designed to create the illusion of a real peace initiative? 

Is it time for mankind the world over to wake up and finally accept the fact that women are much more adept at the "Art of Peace" while men are still much more adept and still pride themselves at being the masters of the "Art of War"? Are women just simply better at getting along with other life forms in general? Do women actually hold the key to world peace but man is just too stubborn and arrogant to compromise his position of power and control?

Clearly most Women have somehow mastered the ability to coexist without having to kill or mortally wound their neighbors to prove some ridiculous point inspired by anger, greed, fear, envy or lust. Couldn’t the men learn a thing or two from the women?

Let's not forget that just about every warlord's favorite cause for war usually involves some gross misinterpretation of just about all of the great world religions and spiritual doctrines. Nobody abstracts and profanes Holy Scriptures and sacred doctrines more than mankind does when he tries to justify or validate his reasoning to declare war and his commitment to win a war at all cost. Do you think from the beginning of civilization that man has had it all wrong all along and women just may be the ones who have it all right when it comes to cohabitating in peace?

Is it time to simply listen to the women of the world and follow their lead? Especially since they are much better at this World Peace thing than men are. What do you really think? What does your higher consciousness tell you at this very moment?  

I have been working for several years on "Non-Political" Peace related projects and would love to hear from anybody else who is also trying to help build Peace. Let me know your personal thoughts and views about women's roles in "World Peace Building" efforts in particular. Also please visit our www.WomensWorldPeace.com website and make any suggestions or ideas you may have regarding the web site and the topic of PEACE.

Stay In The Light & Don't Forget, "Women & Children First!"
