Re: [Hornlist] Peace Comes After Victory
That is the reason,why we cannot get peace Not Giulio Caesar, but Marcus Aurelius !!! The one with strategy, brain, eloquence, but no heart, the other the philosopher, the man with a great heart. Austria did it well in history: they united the countries by marriage. This worked until the selfishness & the greed for power by some few groups & individuals destroyed the empire. Nationalism, religious misunderstanding & onesided fanatism - the worst driving forces to divide nations & to create terror. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bill Hauser Sent: Saturday, July 09, 2005 5:51 PM To: horn@music.memphis.edu Subject: [Hornlist] Peace Comes After Victory Peace comes after victory. ___ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/hans%40pizka.d e ___ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org

Re: [Hornlist] Peace ...
As I get older, I find myself less and less able to see things in black and white, as I did when I was younger. However, I've found that reducing things to simplicity doesn't require black or white, or good or evil classification. In the world today, and probably back to the cave man, we can put all people into one of two categories; A. those who feel empowered to personally take, or destroy, the lives of others, for any reason, and, B those who delegate retribution and punishment to acceptable authority entrusted to defend the rights of all. Either way can work, but majority must demand that one set of rules be applied to everyone. The day of the sword and sixgun is fairly recent. If you carried a weapon, best be prepared to use it. I have cats that like to kill birds. The cat's aren't evil, they're cats. A tree hugger neighbor put bells on the cats to protect her bird feeder. One by one the cats disappeared. Those bells were dinner bells to the local coyotes. The coyotes aren't evil, they're coyotes. I told the tree hugger I'd put the bells back on if she arranges the extermination of the coyotes. Interestingly, a mountain lion ate a bicyclist a few months back and started talk of eradicating the lions. Fortunately, they're protected because they eat the coyotes. People collectively have to decide what to do. With all the scare about terrorists, the US is constantly putting violent sex offenders back on the street, which creates far more victims, by far, than the terrorists do. Terrorists are usually satisfied to cause disruption. In the US, government agencies keep sex offenders supplied with Viagra. Saturday Night Live should spoof that commercial. Then again, we probably make a lot of money on the terrorist munitions. -Original Message- From: Hans <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: 'The Horn List' Sent: Fri, 8 Jul 2005 21:24:17 +0200 Subject: Re: [Hornlist] Peace ...

Re: [Hornlist] Peace ...
There are two issues at work, how do you create a better world in the long run versus how do you stop evil immediately. Rwanda was a failure of the world. Here in the US we bickered over the terms "genocidal acts" versus "genocide." If our government had used the word "genocide" we would have been forced to act. By an art of language we were able to sit by and watch the killings take place. How about the Sudan presently? The US has approached the UN Security Council on more than one occasion seeking their actions. What has been the action of that body? Does man kind need to change? Yes. Does that mean we should stand by and do nothing or apply appropriate force to stop what is happening in the Sudan, what happened in Rwanda, Srebenica until the world changes. If I understand your position, it is to wait for the long term changes in human nature. It is a position that I can not support. Apply the appropriate force today with a vision to not needing it in the future. You resonate on Srbrenica, but what about Ugand & Rwanda-Burundi; Etiopia ? Have you forgotten Biafra ? Cambodia ? Hiroshima, Dresden ? I do not blame our Western friends for these two tragedies. It was just politics & necessary perhaps. I blame mankind as a whole, to let such things happen. Auschwitz, Mauthausen & the other lagers ? I have seen them. We have the large documentary center here in Dachau & I bring all my visiting friends to this place to experience the HELL. But why did mankind let this happen ? Did they close their eyes completely or were they drunk in their magalomania ? And we supported Pol Pot & Idi Amin & Saddam just for selfish interests.

Re: [Hornlist] Peace ...
Were that it was that simple. Take the case of Saudi Arabia for example. It's a kingdom ruled by the House of Sa'ud. The Saudi family came to power through an alliance with the Wahabbi Sect of Islam. The Wahabbi Sect is one of ones holding to a very strict, almost repressive version of Islam. The House of Sa'ud like many other governments around the world made a pact of convenience. It was what they needed at that time. The Saudi family has been a force for change in the nation. In the 1930 the Saudi nation established its first radio station. Their old Wahabbi pals were dead set against it because there was no mention of radio in the Quran, thus it must be of the devil. The first broadcast was a reading of that document. The King justified radio in his kingdom by asking how can this be of the devil, it is providing the words of the Quran across the kingdom. The House of Sa'ud was a force for modernization until a group of radicals captured the Mosque in Mecca in the late 1970s. They were objecting to the changes taking place. The ruing family put down the radical ruthlessly but this act had a major impact upon them. Even today there is officially a strict segregation of women outside the home. Places of employment must provide separate work spaces for women and men. Yet, many Saudi women looking for this employment will note on their application or resume that they are willing to work in a "mixed office." In one generation the number of educated women has gone from 20% to 80%. That is 80% of the female population of the kingdom has received some formal classroom education. There are many restrictions on women written into law. Those laws are often more honored in the breach than in being obeyed. The Royal family almost follows a "don't ask, don't tell" policy wrt to women outside the home. The Wahabbis get to run religious police in the kingdom. They are the ones who enforce these segregation laws. Since the Wahabbis are a major fraction of the population and part of the Royal Family's power base their ability to enforce these laws varies from day to day as the Royal Family gages the need to control the Wahabbis. ___ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
