Its Jimbo

There is a natural phenomenon continually taking place within the
human race and more so in our own American democratic society today.

That phenomenon is better described as complacency or a just; don’t
give a damn attitude towards any issue affecting the survival of our
democracy or our country by the majority of the American people.

For the American people this is a total reversal from a time not long
ago when the American people were a major “can do” society and world
leader in the spread of freedom and democracy.

The proof of this “do nothing” attitude is seen in the fact that
governments generally flow in the direction of the majority interest
of the people and since we have a “do nothing” government, this
indicates we have a “do nothing” majority population.

When a society declines to a “do nothing” existence, outside forces,
such as the corporate powers move in to pick up the scraps while
taking away the things, like the freedoms, democracy, privacy,
infrastructure, control of our military and economic strength, which
are left unprotected by the “ do nothing” government and it’s majority
population.

Back when this country was formed our founding fathers fought and died
to rid themselves of the oppressive controls of the rich and powerful.

They formed a new self-rule style democracy where the power in that
democracy was distributed evenly among the population by providing the
constitutional right to vote and the civil liberties to be active
within the law on issues that protected and strengthened that
democracy.

The founding fathers placed the survival of this new democracy in the
hands of the people thinking the people would always come together on
issues that threatened their rights, freedoms, and democracy.

However, over time the American people have fallen into the trap of
believing their democracy will always survive and be there without
them ever having to do anything, or believing someone else is
responsible to ensure their rights and freedoms without interrupting
their complacent existence.

In a way they are right because they know they can free ride on the
backs of the “minority segment” that will always be there to fight for
and preserve their “ do nothing” existence.

This take it for granted or “do nothing attitude” is leading this
country back to a totalitarian style rule where the freedoms of
democracy are done away with.

How is it possible for a person to fully understand the values of
democracy and freedom when they have never lived under an oppressive
dictatorship?

As time passes complacency breeds ignorance, which becomes the flaw in
a free and open democratic society and the reason for the” majority do
nothing attitude”. To “do nothing” is the mindlessly way, which
condones the destruction of democracy and the rights and freedoms it
provides.
Fortunately, in any democratic society there is a “minority segment”
that values the freedoms of democracy and is willing to step up and
take action when their democracy and freedoms are threatened.

This “minority segment” of the population is viewed as radicals by the
“do nothing segment” because the “do nothings” believe being
complacent and using inaction is what the founding fathers meant as
being patriotic.

Fortunately the “minority segment” understands their constitutional
obligations to preserve their democracy and freedoms while the “do
nothings” believe freedom and democracy are their inherited rights
someone else is obligated to provide for them.

There is great power in the “minority segment” to make the changes
necessary to preserve and strengthen the democracy and enhance the
freedoms, but only when it is totally united for a single common
cause.

Today, there are millions of people and thousands of organizations
working to preserve the democracy, yet they are fragmented while
working individually and in most cases in small groups through out the
country without a major unifying factor or leadership.

The preservation of our democracy and our freedoms is totally
dependent on the “ minority segment” becoming united under one roof
where their combined and committed voting power becomes a major player
in the political arena, such as the unions were at one time and the
religious right is now.

We must learn and understand how the “minority segments” of the past
have gained and used their political power to bring about change in
societies.

There is more then enough political power available right now within
the thousands of peace, anti-war, justice, human rights-and
environmental organizations presently working to combat corporate
domination.

Individually these organizations can make only noise while
collectively they can make change, because unity is the known and
proven factor and the way the “minority segments” have always
prevailed.

The problem is; what will the unifying factor be? The unifying factor
must be one that addresses the core issue all the organizations are
centered on, which is restoring democracy, strengthening the rights
and freedoms of the people while enhancing the security and
environment of the country.

Secondly, the design of the cause that becomes the unifying factor
must be presented in a way where the “do nothing segment” agrees
overwhelmingly with the stated goals of the “minority segment”.

The second part is important because the “do nothing segment” can
easily be persuaded by the corporate powers to oppose any efforts to
preserve or strengthen their democracy.

The design of a plan that is capable of uniting the “minority segment”
need not be complicated but it must have focused vision to see the
overall picture in this world.

The overall cause of the problems in this world today is directly
related to the globalization process now under way where the corporate
powers have gained control of governments and are maneuvering to
establish global rule.

Anything less then efforts to recognize and solve this problem is
fruitless and a waste of time, effort, and resources. I don’t remember
the exact figures, but when our democracy was formed there were about
1.7 million people in this country.

50% of those people (approximately 850 thousand people) were “do
nothings” and refused to lift a hand to help. 30% (approximately 510
thousand people) were loyal to England and primarily “do nothings” for
that side.

20% (approximately 340 thousand) were the “minority segment” who in
one way or another contributed to establishing the greatest democracy
ever formed.

Now, look at our elections in this country, generally around 50% never
bother to vote.

In a democracy; if you don’t vote you loose, therefore the “do
nothings” are the losers and cancer in any society.

The “do nothings” have always been there throughout history in all
societies free riding on the backs of those willing to make things
better.

I guess if we want things to get better we have to learn to work
around these deadheads and continue our struggle, because that is the
way it was meant to be.

One important thing we must understand is, we cannot ever give in to
those complacent losers because that would make us losers.

The encouraging thing is, history proves that the “minority segment”
in most cases does figure it out eventually and prevails in the long
run.

It always becomes a struggle because those who do want things to be
better for everybody have to drag so many losers with them.

Have faith because Peace in this world will be achieved in spite of
the “do nothings”. The sad thing is they will reap the benefits and
say, ” I told you Peace would come without me being involved”.

Frustrated, YES – discouraged, NO….

The We Want World Peace Organization is offering $100,000 dollars -plus- to anyone , individually or as a group, who can provide a better, different, and workable plan for establishing a system of Peace for this world without using any of the main components used in the WWWPO plan provided for this challenge.  In other words, we will not accept modifications to the plan used for this challenge. we are looking for other original and different ways to achieve Peace.

The purpose of our challenge is to seek out all other plans or ideas to establish Peace in this world and hopefully find the best possible way to bring Peace to this world.  Our plan for World Peace is based on the fact of, there can be no real Peace in an uncivilized world.  The plan used for this challenge shows how to civilize this world.   For the world to become civilized all governments and international institutions  must function within a system of International Law and Civilized Order based on a legalized International Bill of Human Rights.   Human Rights are the foundation for any system of law and order because if the people don’t benefit from those systems of law and order they will refuse in mass to abide by those laws and will not expect their governments or others to abide by them either.

 We believe there are no new ways to achieve Peace,  everything we need to know on how to achieve Peace is already known, has been used over and over again successfully, and is directly related to being civilized.  The benefits of establishing Peace through Law and Order is the fact people already understand the functions and benefits of law and order and have been conditioned to depend on the law enforcement when they feel threatened or have  their Human or Civil Rights violated.  The test of this challenge is to see if there are any new and different ways to achieve Peace, which would be accepted and able to serve the people as well as the present systems of law and order.    

This is a win-win challenge because even if you do not win the challenge you will have learned it is possible to establish a system of Peace in this world.  

Good luck to anyone accepting this challenge. We really do hope to see if there are other better ways to achieve Peace in this world and we would be more then happy to reward anyone who provide a better way to establish Peace. 

For more details on the challenge log on to www.wewantworldpeace.com.  The offical launch date is September 11 2007 but it may be posted shortly before that.  

Dwight Eisenhower warned against the United States becoming
predominately dependent on military power as a means for its
security.  The biggest change in American democratic history
came about as a result of World War II and the introduction
of the nuclear bomb. From the mid 40’s to the early 50’s two
different directions became available for our government to
choose from.

One direction was for our government to embrace the
principles of the newly formed United Nations, which was
originally handed all the tools necessary to civilize this
world through a system of International Law and Order based
on the establishment of an International Bill of Human
Rights. 

After the devastation of World War II the world came to
realize future wars using nuclear weapons could destroy this
world and a new system for providing a more peaceful and
civilized existence in this world was needed, thus the
United Nations was formed.  

The other direction governments could take was to pursue
military expansionism with nuclear weapons to ensure their
defense. 

Once one single country pursued this path others were forced
to follow and the overall purpose of the United Nations was
nullified.

Today the American people have become oppressed slaves to
their military power and have been forced to give up their
democratic rights and freedoms for their security.

Ben Franklin stated, once you give up your liberty and
democratic rights for your security, you deserve neither.
The cost the American people have had to pay for their
military power is being a constant target always having to
defend itself from those who wish not to be militarily
dominated by the U.S. government. 

The American people and their democracy has been oppressed
and dominated by fear as a result of their military power
and expansionism. 

The United States government is now the most barbaric,
brutal, and uncivilized country in the world and has been
responsible for more deaths (approximately seven million
people killed) then any other country since the mid 1950’s.
The strange thing is the American people act shocked when
someone attacks their country (911, the USS Cole, etc) and
can’t understand why. 

We have been conditioned to believe a strong military is the
best way to defend our country, but when that military power
jeopardizes our security and safety because our leaders are
abusing it for purposes other then to defend our country, we
should not be surprised.
Being civilized and living in Peace is the sacrifice we have
made for military power.

They say when you live by the sword you die by the sword and
we now live totally by the sword. 

There was a time when it was patriotic to defend our country
and democratic way of life, which was back when our
democracy was one that was by the people, for the people,
and of the people. 

Today, our government is corporate controlled, which means
we have sacrificed our democratic rights, freedoms,
security, and safety to defend a government, which is by the
corporations, for the corporations, and of the corporations.
This was not part of the original deal when our democracy
was formed.  Nowhere in our Constitution, Declaration of
Independence, or Bill of Rights does it mention the American
people must yield their democracy to the corporate powers.
The reason our democracy was formed was to be self-governing
and get away from totalitarian rule. The first paragraph of
the Declaration of Independence states clearly the
obligation to preserve our democracy rest squarely with the
American people, yet the American people are so oblivious to
their democratic responsibilities they have allowed their
democracy to fail.  A democracy is only as strong as the
people who participate in it.

Thomas Jefferson stated; this democracy would only last
about two hundred and fifty years before the people must
decide to rebuild it or let it revert back to totalitarian
rule.  We have been at it for two hundred and thirty four
years now, with sixteen years left to decide. 

If the American people are satisfied with being oppressed by
fear as a result of our their military power, which is
controlled by a corporate run government then they should do
nothing, but they should understand it was they who failed
their democracy and they have no one to blame but
themselves. 

Its Jimbo. 

I have been ask to simplify, or by using the fewest words possible to explain the main point in our theory for creating a system of World Peace through the establishment of a system of International Law and Order. Here goes, the key word is – civilized–.   To be peaceful, you must be civilized. To be civilized, you must function within a system of law and order.  For this world to be civilized and peaceful, it must function within a system of International Law and Order and the by-product would be Peace in this world.  Hows that for simple?  It  doesn’t have any more complicated then that.  

All animals are born with the natural survival instinct, including humans.  All humans instinctivly know their survivability rate increases dramatically when living in healthy, peaceful, and civilized enviorments.  Early man was smart enough to figure out if humans were going to live together and survive, there was going to have to be some rules to live by.  The same holds true today because if we are going to live together and survive in this new global society, there will have to be some rules to live by.   We are not inventing something new here, just trying to wake up and re-use the known and proven natural human civilizing process needed to finish civilizing this world.  

The systems of law and order are responsible for providing more Peace and Human Rights then any other known factor in history.  Understand that should steer us towards establishing a system of International Law and Order as a means to solve our Peace issues.  Establishing a system of International Law and Order would open the door to solving a multitude of problems facing the world today.

Basically, what we are trying to do is wake up the natural civilizing process for one more job.  Once that civilizing process is awake, it will naturally lead us to a system of International Law and Order to establish Peace because there is no other better option. 

Now, all we need to do is decide if we want to be civilized and be willing to do our share when the process starts.

I hope that explains our basic plan better.  visit our website at  www.wewantworldpeace.com for more information. 

One more point.  Each person on earth holds one part of the peace for this world.  That part of the peace  each person holds is worthless until it is united with the other parts.  Refusing to join causes for establishing Peace in this world greatly hinders the process to establish Peace.  Peace on earth will be achieved when enough people contribute their part to the Peace process.   What are you doing with your part? 

 Thanks Jimbo    

Jimbo again:  

Some people we have talked to have a hard time wraping their mind around the concept of World Peace.   Our meaning of the words “system of World Peace”  is directly related to, or the same as a system of International Law and Order.   

A system of World Peace would be a by-product of a system of International Law and Civilized World Order.  A study of history teaches us mankind has developed  and expanded the systems of  law and order throughout history to civilize his societies. 

We are now in the process of building a global society where we now have global communications, trade, travel, sports, politics, war, terrorism, crime, and so on, but we have yet to develop a global system of Law and Order, which is essential to establish a civilized global society. 

Establishing systems of Law and Order is a natural evolutionary process which enhances the security, safety, and survivability of people and their countries. 

As the process of globalization proceeds some governmental and corporate powers are taking advantage of having no International Law and Order in place to expand their goal of global dominance.  

Law and Order belongs to the people and if the people want to have a place with legal standing and Human Rights in their global society, they must establish a system of International Law and Order, which will give all people legal standing with legal protections for their Human Rights and freedoms.   

All societies throughout history started out uncivilized and the people were the ones who fought to civilize there societies and civilizing the new global society will be no different.  Recognizing the natural process for how civilized societies are formed is a must as to understand how our new global society will become civilized.   

So, when you hear us mention the words World Peace, think about a system of International Law and Order based on Human Rights, think about being civilized, think of a world were War, military conflict, and military rule are outlawed, think of a world where all people are considered citizens of this world with equal entitlement to legal protections for their Human Rights and freedoms, Think about a higher level of  safety, and survivability for all people and a higher level of security and soverignty for their countries, think of a world in its natural evolutionary flow towards Peace on earth.  

Since the systems of law and order are a known and proven factor, it should not be hard to imagine how the system International Law and Order would look.  Our website — www.wewantworldpeace.com  — has many of the details on how the International Law and Order will function– check it out.

 As our cause grows, hopefully many others will contribute to designing the details for the system of International Law and Order as it will  not difficult for motivated people who want to live in Peace.

Thanks Jimbo:
