What's happened to Japan is absolutely horrible to watch and nightmarish for those sorting out the living from the dead. Every nation will, sadly, eventually get a turn dealing with something that will knock it flat down.

This is the absolute worst time for me to put my foot in my mouth, so I'll just keep it even. What's going on in Japan is Chaos, but what's going on in Libya is insanity. Those people are made of the same stuff that all of us are made of; They suffer just as we do, and the Loon in charge is willing to plunge them right into war right now. Please don't forget those people.They don't deserve it.

Every time I watch the Japanese Tsunami footage, I think to myself: "Even the Archaeological sites, even the ground animals, just washed away forever...taken away forever...but Japan is strong for it.Ancient Japan and Ancient Pre-Japan have been washed away many times.So many traces of their ancestors are gone by Tsunami that their modern descendants will never know of them at all, not even an inkling: To me, for a modern Japanese person,knowing of having a part of one's ancestral history stolen away without knowing what it was is the equivalent of having a part torn out of oneself without a whimper.It is the worthiest place for the discipline required of Karate to have taken root."

Libya may stop being Libya the way things are going for it.It may be carved up into new states in the name of international interests.Japan,at least,will continue being Japan,no matter how materialistic,heartless and inhumane this specific sentence sounds at this particular time in history even to me.

I shouldn't have to state that this post is typed up with respect to people of every nationality and survivors (or victims) of every hardship.

Have a nice day,because, for those of us that there is one to have, there is one to have.

Good! Here's hoping Gaddafi gets what's coming to him and the country gets a good government to replace him.

The guy's a circus act- he deserves to be replaced...but you reply "Good" to the possibility that Libya can be split up into smaller nations? Or worse, International corporate estates?

If they want to. I haven't been following the news much, about all I know is that the entire damn country has turned against Gaddafi. Is there a report or anything stating that the anti-Gaddafi faction is going to do the kind of stuff you're saying once they've gained full control?

Well, I don't think they want to.
Reports so far are "we' are searching for the most appropriate course of action).

Also: Off topic but I'm changing the title to accomodate- during the riots in Egypt, the Museums were broken into and looted, which I consider a crying shame.

Oh, and the Fourth Horseman looks like a Helicopter Spotlight riding some molotov smoke to me.

Now is the time to pray for everyone.
Not just for a certain country but to everyone.
We have to pray always for our protection and safety at all times.
Only the Lord God will give us the guidance we need.
