“… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …”

Last American troops leave Iraq

Deutsche Welle, 18 Dec 2011

America's military mission in Iraq has
ended after almost nine years

The last convoy of American soldiers has rolled out of Iraq, completing the US military withdrawal and fulfilling President Obama's campaign promise to get America out of a war he inherited from his predecessor.

The last convoy of US soldiers crossed the border from Iraq into Kuwait in the early hours on Sunday, bringing to a close the American military involvement in Iraq after almost nine years. Just 157 soldiers stayed behind to train Iraqi forces, while a group of Marines will remain to secure America's diplomatic mission.

A column of around 100 military vehicles carrying some 500 troops traveled five hours along a mostly-deserted route across the southern Iraq desert after handing over the Imam Ali base outside the city of Nasiriyah. US forces paid Shiite tribal sheikhs to regularly inspect stretches of the highway to reduce the risk of roadside bombings or other attacks on the last troops.

of the invasion

The US-led invasion in March 2003 toppled the regime of Saddam Hussein and unleashed brutal sectarian killing. The war left nearly 4,500 American soldiers and, according to British NGO Iraq Body Count, more than 100,000 Iraqis dead. At the height of the war there were more than 170,000 US troops in Iraq, stationed at more than 500 bases.

Promise kept

The military pullout timetable was agreed in 2008 by Baghdad and Washington and fulfills an election campaign promise by US President Barack Obama to bring troops home from a conflict inherited from his predecessor, George W. Bush. It's been America's least popular war since Vietnam and tainted America's standing worldwide.

The American troops are leaving an Iraq that is grappling with renewed political deadlock and uncertainty over the strength of the country's political structures. On Saturday the Iraqiya bloc, which came out ahead in March 2010 polls with support from the minority Sunnis, said it was boycotting parliament to protest the centralization of decision-making by Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki, a Shiite. The bloc controls nine ministries and has not yet pulled out of Iraq's national unity government.
