Too Much At Stake Not To Try

What we are in need of now is more wisdom than is being offered in the halls of congress, in America’s corporate boardrooms, or in the churches, synagogues, and other organizations where citizens congregate. In my view, nearly all the institutions we believe in and live by are failing us just as they failed other societies we read about in history books. And now, in my mind’s eye, I see blood running in our streets as history prepares to repeat itself one more time.

If you have children or grandchildren you should take note of what I am going to share with you, because I believe your loved ones may be in mortal danger. If you have a computer I suggest you go to the following link where you will find an article and a video: http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/080307A.shtml

Then read an interview between a one time Assistant General Counsel in the Reagan White House and an organization called Tikkun. http://files.tikkun.org/current/article.php?story=20070803080839432

Alternatively, to the link above is this one which is a video lasting an hour and a quarter that lays all this out in pretty good detail. Just click "Watch" when you get to the web site if it doesn't start automatically: http://www.booktv.org/program.aspx?ProgramId=8493&SectionName=&PlayMedia=Yes

Then read this article originally published in the NY Times on August 10, 2007: http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/081107Y.shtml It carries the title, “Bush War Adviser Says Draft Worth a Look.”

It’s possible that you could watch the video above, read the articles offered, and still not connect the dots or understand the implications. But there’s too much at stake not to try.
