Leading the world by example, Dwayne Hunn, Marin IJ, December 25, 2006

HOW SHOULD we behave as a nation? This is what Andy Rooney had to say on "60 Minutes" on Sept. 10:

"Americans are puzzled over why so many people hate us. We seem so nice to ourselves. They do hate us though. We know that and we're trying to protect ourselves with more weapons.

"We have to do it, I suppose, but it might be better if we figured out how to behave as a nation in a way that wouldn't make so many people in the world want to kill us."

General Zinni's Warriors +America's World Service Corps = World Stability By Dwayne Hunn, June 15, 2006 Indy News.

In his book, Battle Plan for Peace, General Zinni proposes non-military strategies to achieve ultimate victory – stability. People’s Lobby citizen-initiated American World Service Corps (AWSC) proposed congressional legislation provides the cost-effective winning strategy that builds worldwide stability. It’s our most cost effective investment in reducing terrorism, hatred, ignorance, and poor policies. http://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2006/06/15/18280822.php

One million strong World Service Corps needed to augment 1.4 million military personnel. http://www.worldservicecorps.us/one million wsc needed.htmSan Francisco Bay Indy News by Dwayne Hunn, November 25, 2005

If America wants to remain the leading economic and political power in the 21^st century, it must add a peaceful, productive World Service Corps to its tool belt of economic and moral development. With a million Americans a year working in pockets of need at home and abroad, our military costs and losses will tumble, as will our deficits.

Which produces more peace? $90,000 signing bonuses, Conscientious Objectors or a million World Service Corps Volunteers? San Francisco Bay Indy News, by Dwayne Hunn, October 11, 2005. Your story is:

http://www.indybay.org/news/2005/10/1773970.php

Do $90,000 military signing and tuition bonuses insure enough soldiers for national security? Will conscientiously objecting to warfare and protesting for peace inspire a better world? Or, and at less than 1/5th the cost, will offering a million Americans the opportunity to serve through the World Service Corps improve and secure world and home?

Do we talk Christ’s talk or walk his walk? If one lives the “way” Christ lived, is that the “truth” that enters one’s “life” into paradise? Wouldn’t a million Americans serving annually in the World Service Corps be living the life Christ and all religions want us to live? So let’s “nike” rather than “nuke” and “Just do it!”

Scared, broke, and still marching to stupid wars… Indy Bay News by Dwayne Hunn Friday Sep 7th, 2007 12:18 PM

We fall into wasteful wars because too few citizens understand domestic and world needs. Our most indelible educations come from first hand experiences. Moving Americans from bumper sticker analysis into meaningful world service does more than screeching complaints about the State of the World. Pressing Congress to enact PLI’s American World Service Corps Congressional Proposals provides indelible learning educations.

http://www.indybay.org/news/2006/01/1797907.php

Our active and reserve military is bleeding. The reports come from not only the experienced Murtha and his insiders, but from more and more military reports. We can dramatically slow our military’s bleeding by reducing the growing pockets of hatred in which our military is increasingly serving. We can move toward stopping the bleeding by sending a robust corps of American nation builders.

Haven't we had enough Ron Kovics, Patrick McCaffrey...? In the 21st century, we need a peaceful productive army that builds not bombs nations. The organizations named in People's Lobby's non-partisan American World Service Corps Congressional Proposals builds that productive army that has yanks compete on the field of sane, healthy development. Push your Congressperson to cosponsor the AWSC, so we lose fewer legs and loving hearts.

Winning Constitutional strategy for Scott Ritter... and Sun Tzu Daily Kos, May 30, 2008. Dwayne Hunn.

Unfortunately, restating the Constitution does not provide anti-war activists, political parties, progressives, etc., a strategy that produces a character-rich public policy, which would only rarely include warring.

Winning strategy for Scott Ritter, Sun Tzu, and our Constitutional goal of promoting the general welfare, Op-Ed News. Digg News by Dwayne Hunn

Americans are capable of building a strategy to change the character of America’s public policy to one that successfully wages peace via pushing People’s Lobby’s citizen-initiated American World Service Corps (AWSC) Congressional Proposals. For a nation founded on “We the people...” citizen-initiated legislation should become more commonplace.

Who will be the:

· Congressional Representative farsighted enough to introduce the Peoples Lobby’s citizen-initiated American World Service Corps Congressional Proposals. so that we start immediately disassembling terror cells and winning hearts and minds?

· Senator with the vision and eloquence, so that the world sees a smarter American policy clearly ending bloodshed and laying the foundation for a global Marshall Plan?

Why does America slough in quagmires like Vietnam? Stupidly buy into stumbling into Iraqi wars that allow enemies to wear down our military and economy? Who brainwashed America into a war psyche as an answer to all problems? Does the peace movement need better tactics, strategies, time, and energy deployment to beat down the drumbeats that lead us to war? Scott Ritter thinks so, as does Peoples Lobby. There is an art to war, as there is to law making and the peace movement needs to use both better
