Does the Anti-War movement of the 60's and the Pro-peace rallies of the Hippie/Flower power generation still has relevancy in today's world? Other than the fact that the message of peace might have a different meaning today? Should we have paid more attention to the calls for peace then and apply it to today's world? Is it so hard to achieve peace or is it easier for governments to make war despite the protests from their citizens?

Sadly, I kind of think it's too late. The world's become such a right wing, capitalistic place. People are motivated by money, success, and their own personal gain, peace doesn't even come into the equation. A lot of people couldn't care less about the war going on in other parts of the world they're too busy thinking about how their life is going. I really wish the flower power days would come back (not that I was around to witness them), but I think I'm just looking through my rose coloured glasses there.

i'm afraid it is looking grim and VERY complicated now....Even changing the countrys leaders might not make a difference at this point.
Its an oil war- and the world will fight over the last few drops. When I was in school, they used to say we had enough oil for another 50 years. well, that was 20 yrs ago, so the day nears.

it truly is amazingly unhappy when I see some human beings branding Religions detrimental coz of someones act. why a faith should be to blame for Sultan's act?? may be Sultan has some thing to do with him and had enmity with him or may be Sultan did all that in revenge for some thing. may be all this tale isn't even a reality. Thare are alot of human beings from different Religions who stay peacefully in Pakistan and as i m from Pakistan i understand that and that i have many acquaintances who're no longer Muslims or persist with Islam. We sit down together, Play together and devour together. look you quite pick to augment up and promises up this bullshit (branding Religions for someone's' act). Islam has confirmed large Examples of distinct Religions living together in historic previous.

Peaceful people are peaceful. We need to fight for peace against the warmongers. There's a conundrum for you.
