 | | ""Whatever you do will be insignificant and it is very important that you do it - M Gandhi "" | I believe unless we adopt a vegan lifestyle and work toward the end of the exploitation of non human animals, we can not honestly consider ourselves truly interested in peace, compassion and non-violence or the environment.
Exploitation of *any* sentient being or the destruction of the environment is unacceptable and an insanity. Every injustice, every violence, effects us all
individually whether we realise or not. Right now, non human animals are the most exploited by far. Every non-violent effort possible should be made to end the exploitation.
True & lasting peace will only come through non-violent action, inner change, education & through the cessation of exploitation of *all* sentient beings, human and non human. Hence my great interest in animal & human rights
and Tibetan Buddhism.
Today's climate is far too anthropocentric. That needs much work ;) Non-human animals need all our help Approx 59 billion non-human animals suffer unbearable
cruelty, torture and are killed each year. We strongly encourge everyone to speak out to end this great injustice.
Governments have a tendency to follow the public voice. There are few real "leaders" in government and even fewer who are interested in justice for all.
One way is adopting a cruelty free compassionate lifestyle like becoming vegan and not supporting government members or large multinational industries & companies that support the exploitation of non-human animals. If you investigate closely, you will find 98% of business directly or indirectly allow torturing and / or killing animals for their products. Economic pressure on these companies by not purchasing or by boycotting their products is effective. Creatively educating the public, protesting, lobbying & non-violent action is vital.

When they took them to the abattoir to meet their fate, the slaughtermen collapsed in laughter as the porcine duo walked meekly after their owners, answering to their names and putting their chins out to be scratched." less

Sign US Animal Bill of Rights (international signatures welcome)
http://www.aldf.org/billofrights/index.php
From Animal Defense Legal Fund -
more...The struggle to end cruelty to animals is not an easy one. But there is something easy you can do right now to make a difference in the lives of abused animals. It's as quick and simple as typing in your name.
Through the Animal Bill of Rights, we (ADLF) are working to show Congress a groundswell of support for legislation that protects animals and recognizes their rights. Ultimately, we hope the petition will be a bill. In the meantime, the thousands of signatures on this petition send a clear message to our legislators that Americans strongly support legal protection for animals. When animal-related legislation is proposed, Congress will remember the huge number of signatures on the Animal Bill of Rights. With that in mind, they will cast a vote for the animals.
A Petition to the United States Congress
I, the undersigned American citizen, believe that animals, like all sentient beings, are entitled to basic legal rights in our society. Deprived of legal protection, animals are defenseless against exploitation and abuse by humans. As no such rights now exist, I urge you to pass legislation in support of the following basic rights for animals:
THE RIGHT of animals to be free from exploitation, cruelty, neglect and abuse.
THE RIGHT of laboratory animals not to be used in cruel or unnecessary experiments.
THE RIGHT of farm animals to an environment that satisfies their basic physical and psychological needs.
THE RIGHT of companion animals to a healthy diet, protective shelter, and adequate medical care.
THE RIGHT of wildlife to a natural habitat, ecologically sufficient to a normal existence and self-sustaining species population.
THE RIGHT of animals to have their interests represented in court and safeguarded by the law of the land.
Sign the Animal Bill of Rights!

About "Your Days of Ignorance are Over"
Images are of global systemic animal exploitation. If you eat meat or dairy, wear fur trimmed clothing, hunt, endorse animal experimentation & testing, endorse animals used for entertainment, endorse zoos or support any form of animal exploitation, then you can watch this. For more info visit http://www.lobsa.org
The video content is graphic and is intentionally so because, as we mentioned, these images are NOT unusual images of animal exploitation. They are instances of SYSTEMIC global abuse and condoned by governments everywhere.
We display these graphic images to motivate and educate the general public what goes on behind the walls of factory farms, laboratories, slaughterhouses etc. Sadly most members of the
public continue to live in ignorance of these horrific systemic animal abuses because industry and governments intentionally keep this cruelty hidden from the public eye. This public ignorance
works in the favour of animal exploitation industries, and this ignorance makes it easier for the public to continue to consume animal products and animal tested products or any other activities which involve the exploitation of animals.
Rather than wring our hands and continue on in our lives without action, humankind needs to adopt a vegan cruetly free diet and lifestyle for ourselves, the environment, for non human animals, & for peace. A UN report reveals that rearing cattle is worse for global warming than driving cars.
55 billion non human animals suffer and are killed each year for our taste buds. Meat & dairy are not necessary for health as millions of vegetarians and vegans will attest.
Humans are the real "pest" on this planet. They hunt, experiment and torture, kill for fur, imprison, abuse and exploit animals. It is not only wrong and unethical to exploit non human animals, we are harming ourselves in the process and peace will never be achievabl less

The Kllling of Iraqi children during "Operation Iraqi Freedom"
This is a piece written way back in 1933, but is still just as relevant. It is an excerpt more...from a speech by Major General Smedley Butler, USMC. Smedley Butler is one of only 19 people in the entire history of the US military to have been awarded the The Congressional Medal of Honor twice. The Medal of Honor is the highest award given by the US military.
War is just a racket
There isn't a trick in the racketeering bag that the military gang is blind to. It has its "finger men" to point out enemies, its "muscle men" to destroy enemies, its "brain men" to plan war preparations, and a "Big Boss" Super-Nationalistic-Capitalism.
