I repost this one,
because I do need your prayers
for my people and family in the Moluccan.
Visit the urls below, scroll downwards
and read how the Jihad are killing
my people (already for 3 years now).


Laskar Jihad news
Lawmakers Told of Atrocities Against Moluccan Christians

The World is Watching


The world is watching, while we are crying
the world is watching, while we are dying
while people from outside named the Laskar Jihad
are killing my people, drive them apart
and when they murder, they do it extra ordinary
pieces of body's you will find everywhere.
these useless wars separate families, even man and wife
intrude with madness, destroying many lives
the Laskar Jihad don't care if you are an innocent kid
whether you are old and helpless or sick.

The Indonesian army have taken part in this strive
don't protect the native people when they run for their lives
they are the one who start the many attacks
while the Laskar Jihad follow them, that's an awful impact
with automatic weapons, rockets and grenades
against my people who defend themselves with weapons they've  made
such weapons as simple guns, arrows and bows
isn't this destruction of people, isn't this mean and very low
and yet the world is watching us, while we are crying
yes the world is watching us, while we are dying.

You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Charisma, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

What is needed is for the world to start FEELING, and not just watching. We watch in horror and dismay, and wonder what can be done? There is so much cruelty in this world, I often wonder how we dare use the word humankind, when it seems so oxymoronic. My heart goes out to you, along with my question, What can I do to help stop this madness? I try daily to send LOVE and PEACE thoughts, but wonder sometimes if they go anywhere, or do they drift on a dead-end wind to nowhere?

Well, Charisma, I'm off to church right now, so I'll definitely remember them in my prayers.  

God bless America, my home sweet home.

Thank you all for your kindness and especially for your prayers and thoughts for my people and family. I know they appreciate your prayers very much, because that's what they always ask for. Prayers and attention from the international world.

Midnitesun at this moment I really don't know what we can do more, we have tried so many things.....but I do know that we can't stop calling and reaching out to the world with our cry for help. I don't wanna lose my people, family and roots.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all. No one should have to suffer like this. Mankind is it's own worst enemy sometimes. Why do we fight among ourselves? Why can we not live and let live in peace. I guess there will never be an answer to that. So, I will simply pray for a resolution.
