To China and the world - my apoligies to your countries on behalf of our US criminal govt
PLEASE DO NOT BOMB OUR COUNTRY-
If USA keeps giving your country a reason to respond.... I appeal for peace instead of war.
I want to reach out to China, other countries and your governments... I will post this on ATS... Who am I to talk to your governments? I am "nobody" just one USA citizen watching the horrible crimes our USA government are doing to our people, your people and the entire world! . I personally apoligize to your goverment and ask... please try to work with the citizens of our country..Lets set up a council of peace...
I speak for most Americans.. We do not want war... no matter what our government is doing... please respond with peace and not missles...We can find a way....I am one person... Just one person... Even a Chinese proverb states: "How do you remove a mountian? you start with removing one small stone..."
Well, I am that one small stone..
I speak out for peace. Any TV radio/newspaper... I am "an average" joe... I cant lie like government.. So Interview me... I will speak the truth.... Please lets have peace, not war!
(USA government is tring to start wars....through banking, finance, removing our freedoms, inciting wars, invading other countries for selfish world controlling reasons... there are no "terrorists", starting wars just to make more money)
Our soverign freedoms are just a game to the government. America was founded on principle and freedoms.. So if there are are any other AST'ers out there... that agree with me.. Please lets keep this thread going and add your response WHY we want peace in this thread..
Lets tell our government we want peace and appeal to Chinese government to work with us citizens directly (by pass criminal element in USA govt)
ADD YOUR PLEA FOR PEACE AND KEEP THIS THREAD GOING TO CHINA!! AMERICANS ITS TIME TO SPEAK UP N-O-W

I do believe many people are on the same page but why can't we stand up? What needs to be done for us to push for what we know is right? Are we all just going to watch everything just fall apart? Please give your thoughts and idea's to motivate us to fix things...

Some have criticized the OP saying his decision to post this is out of fear, and that he probably didn't post something similar when we invaded Afganistan and Iraq. I for one feel strongly about war and desire peace at any cost (though peace is usually the "cheapest" alternative) but don't post overtly about it usually. I am just a peaceful person. There is *nothing* wrong with the OP's post - it demonstrates and understanding of current world tensions, most notably China and USA's relationship being quite spotty, and he felt the need to address the issue.
This is a simple call for peace. Somebody needs to say it. Everybody needs to stand up and demand it. We can't sit down and let it happen like we do so often in politics... I'll be the first to greet my enemies with open arms and compassion, but that doesn't mean we should sit back and watch the blood flow without resisting! There is no honor or compassion there. Non-violence only goes so far against automatic rifles. Technology can wipe out whole nations in a few seconds flat - this means we MUST fight for our natural liberties because they WILL be stolen out from under us eventually if we do not fight.
I refer everybody to the Bhagavad Gita and the discussion therein between Arjun and Krishna: www.bhagavad-gita.org...
Click the arrows at the top right to go to the next verse. The four sections at the bottom are commentary on the individual verses. I don't link this so we can all get holy, I link it because a philosophy is discussed in the first couple of chapters which demonstrate that war is necessary at times. Martyrdom is foolish love. War is sometimes wise love.edit on 15-11-2010 by tetsuo because: (no reason given)

Explanation: Lets all go Chinese EARLY OK!
Seriously....Let us in the west weigh up the current SitX and make an OPEN decission to either fully join with the east or stop fiddling around and declare open warfare, as anything else is just half arsed squimishness and ignorant stupidity.
I've KNOWN for over 20yrs that China was the future and NOW its coming true!

Wake Up & Harden Up Australia and its western allies! Go China EARLY and Vote 1 China! You Know It Makes Sense!
Note: I know I'd be the 1st agains't the wall regardless of either outcome and I DON'T CARE!
I just noticed another ATS Thread and how it is relevent to this Thread.
Submarine Arms Race in the Pacific. [ATS]
See if we Voted 1 China then we wouldn't need to spend gazillions of $$$'s on that BS and we could spend the entire worlds current defence budget on something FAR MORE WORTHY...like fusion power stations ect.
How many hospitals and schools would that build?
Wouldn't we all prefer to spend those $'s that just kill people on something far more noble?

No offense but your countries actions do suggest differently. There is clearly a pattern of destruction that accompanies the US political system. If your words were to be true wouldn't we have seen an uprising somewhere during the 60's?
