Soul of a Nation

A little history lesson.   In 1989 China put down an uprising with brute force.  It crushed it's own people down as they asked for their human rights.  22 years later the world talks of the emergence of China as a global power.  What happened?

Many factors contributed to China getting here, but the seed was planted on that day in 1989.  The rulers of China stole the soul of their nation.  Which Chinese citizen the day after felt the pride of his/her nation?  Which one thought their was a country to be proud of?  

The government in China was smart enough to set in motion policies to preserve the soul over the system. They abandoned the social contract for national pride.  

Today the world is seeing a flashback.  After the Chinese, the wall fell in Berlin and Russia crumbled.  
Years ago the Iranians rebelled and got crushed. A year later the Arab spring began. We know the powers that be stole the soul of Iran, let us hope history repeats itself and 20+ yrs from now Iran thrives again.  Iranians must hold on to the ideals of humanity.  The crushing was the seed of defeat for the Ayatollahs and their perverted form of Islam.   

We are forever optimistic. The world will survive the inactions of the spineless one. 

Good and bad

When Egypt brought Mubarak into court, it was a monumental moment for the Arab and Muslim world.  
A dictator having to face consequences of their actions.  
Now let's see the rest of them in court.  
Only five months after we asked has now the western world reacting to Syria. 
In Libya our views are proving correct each day.  Never can change happen from far and with air power alone.  Get your hands dirty!  You are either believe completely or you dont.  Spineless leaders are damaging this world and missing the opportunity presenting itself around the middle east.  
Sad sad affairs!
