For Whom The Bell Tolls
"You can look at war as a massing of arms and matérial and troops, but you can also see it as something else--as a delicate web of interwoven choices made by human beings, made out of a certain consciousness. The decision to order an attack, the choice to obey or disobey an order, to fire or not to fire a weapon. Armies and, indeed, any culture that supports them must convince the people that all the decisions are made already, and they have no choice. But that is never true." The Fifth Sacred Thing" by Starhawk

Peace, in the sense of the absence of war is of little value to someone who is dying of hunger or cold. It will not remove the pain of torture inflicted on a prisoner of conscience. It does not comfort those who have lost their loved ones in floods caused by senseless deforestation in a neighboring country. Peace can only last where human rights are respected, where the people are fed and where individuals and nations are free -

Green Dove Note

Dear People,

I am grateful for the abundance I witness in nature, and for the flourishing of hopeful spirits. Admittedly hopeful by nature, I remain so, and am buoyed by those around me who continue to act with the intention to share, strengthen, and work toward developing and manifesting hopeful visions of a world filled with peace, love and justice.

I admit to having some long moments when I have felt disturbed and weighted down by the violence of these times, and yes, I have wanted to distance myself from all of it. But, in the center of my being, I believe that we have the capacity to create a loving sustainable world, and that we each have some part to play toward that end. With this in mind, I move forward doing what I must to keep up with Green Dove, which is now officially a non-profit corporation doing the 501C3 dance. Sadly, there will not be a print edition of this Green Dove Peace Magazine due to lack of funds. Solutions are being sought to remedy this problem.

Many of those in positions of power, do not represent the heart, mind and visions of the people. Thankfully, there are many working to create a just, beautiful, healthy, sustainable, and peace filled world. In Bloomington, up in Indianapolis and across Indiana, there are many individuals and groups actively working toward increasing peace. Among them are the Unitarian Universalist Peace and Justice Task Force, the Bloomington Peace Action Coalition, Bloomington Muslim Dialog Group, and a new arrival on the social activism scene, The Indianapolis Nonviolent Action Coordinating Taskforce (INAC) whose goal is to increase coordination and communication between people working in Indiana for justice and community empowerment.

This issue, as in previous ones, we have some voices from the local scene, and others from across the nation and around the global community. We have articles and many letters. Among them, Dr. Brittain on medical marijuana, Arundhati Roy on Radio Now, The Military Media by Robert Jensen, Denise Breeden-Ost on Mothers Day, GMO News, Letter of Resignation by Paul Hawkens from the Green Business Network, Next year in Mas¹Ha By Starhawk, David Keppel letter to Senator Luger, War Spending VS Education, Creating a Culture of Peace, An Interview with Major Doug Rokke on depleted uranium and many more articles and link connections.

We are all on this road together, may we share our best when we meet. Thanks again for whatever you do to make peace in your home and the larger community. It all matters.

Patricia
