Ok, so given that the tenth anniversary of the attacks on September 11th are coming up it is not surprising that people are putting out videos that said that 9/11 would not have happened if we could all just get along. The target of today is the group called Our Journey to Smile.
If you have not heard of this group they talk a lot about ideals but never have anything about making those ideals happen. Not once.
Lets go into the video.
I think that peace is a state of being, that we choose to live in peace, and we choose to live in hate So if you choose to live in peace, it’s contagious If you choose to live in hate, it’s contagious
So, if you live in hate, other people who are in contact with you will live in hate.
Uh except that how do you intend to make that work? If it were that easy you really think that issues like gangs and crime would be still here. Yet you expect that phrase to work in one of the most violence countries in the world. Really?
All of us can feel your pain, because you lost a family member on September 11. All of us can feel your pain because here, it’s like September 11 every day. Every day, Afghans are losing their family members.
Again, really? You do not think that people in America have not lost friends and relatives to violence before 2011? Or what about the claim that 9/11 happens every day in Afghanistan. Your tying to say that over 3,000 people die in Kabul every day? Because that is what made 9/11 a big deal because of the large number of people who were affected in such as short amount of time. But it sound since despite the fact that it has no truth in reality.
We can work side by side to end this war, & work for a non-violent solution in Afghanistan.
By doing what? How are you going to bell that cat.
This group is small, idealistic, and comprised of young people. It appears from their website that they fly kites, sing songs, and recite poetry to advance peace. At least in doing that, their members are not strapping bombs on themselves, walking into marketplaces, and killing indiscriminately. They are a hopeful lot and I rather envy them their hopefulness. Before stark reality overcame us, many of our number were once that way too.
Reality-proof vests are available online.

I use to thinks so until they started putting out crap like this.
Afghanistan was a closed country prior to our entry after 9/11. So, how could we have lived in hate of them?
