It's a different kind of War, very honestly handled by a couple of smartest politicians on present Earth. Just support honesty and the truth.
Now, oil price may get cheaper to benefit hard-working folks not Billionaires.
Please believe in facts and you have nothing to lose by doing it!
Funny! Yes, funny are the most of the human interactions, as long as no human gets killed by another human or a groups of humans.
The too old styled mankind killing politics in the name of God by the advisers of any of the parties of Semitic Origins such as Iranians, Saudi-Arabians, Palestinians, Lebanese, Pakistanis, Afghans etc. will never going to go un-noticed and un-addressed by the New Generation of Collective Global public.
It's time for intelligent, New Kind of US and Global politics without weapons of Wars.
Playing non-violent funny games is Okay as developments for betterment of the mankind -all over the World, is to continue simultaneously.
The changing process will be slow but someone(s) have to start it to be continued for decades and only a few wise heads like Mr. Obama, now understand how the violent reality can become peaceful and of course, by a slowly developing process of digitally identifying and confining the bad guys -a very small percentage of the Global populace including 'a beggar on the global street or a king inside a palace'.
The Cosmos' Creator or religion-less God is blame-free even when killings are committed through non-human, natural creations such as unpredictable Tsunami, new bacterial epidemic etc.
For this reason, still there will be no peace in the lands of today's Egypt, Libya, Palestine, Israel, India, Bangladesh etc.. The non-violent wars of protests will continue from inside e.g. For Saudi-Arabia, its own Public and not Outsider: Israeli Public.
The old style media propaganda won't work anymore as 'the electronic social networks with daily true facts' are becoming replacements. Even attempts to start a "Third World War -will become a matter of idiots' conspiracy" in the eyes of collective 'evolved Global Public'.
Each of us -the wise Westerners, despite our financial hardship, have to get used to enjoying life without luxury for a while and try to have fun in the apparently endless game of living *Life -A truly Cosmic gift of the forever mysterious, cruel (in the human sense of understanding) and *Loving Creator.
