Syria's Civil War Ebbs and Flows –It Must End
Both sides in the Syrian war may want Jumper on their side, He would make quick work out of tank columns. Both sides argue –each is only serving God.
No! Saint Mohammad, the Prophet would explain, God is on the battlefield. God is that child, woman… you are sniping at, torturing,.. The combatants would not want him forcing a peace (give to Caesar what is Caesar’s) or in negotiations, he does not like men perverting his words, It hurts.
This war must end, soon: Heaven demands it end.
A mutual settlement must be reached. Keep in mind Jumper’s definition of original sin today: when a person puts aside their religious beliefs to benefit economically.
The constant religious rhetoric pouring from both cannot be correct, even Saint Teresa, a Doctor of the Church, could not make sense of their words. Syrian politics should remind all
–How rhetoric gave way to brutal philosophies.
The Scholars arguing in the late 1800s, could not have foreseen how the rhetorical dissertation could become a society’s ethos. They did. The Judaic, Christian, Islamic ethos became lost: Righteousness was not judged by God, It was judged by a person’s appearance of power…

India, It Is Time For BCCI To Grow Up
Cricket is an international sport feast. Our globe tunes into British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) to listen. There is a big misunderstanding between the regular sports broadcasters and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) over additional fees to cover the upcoming Test series between England and India. First recorded cricket match in India was 1751. Not under the BCCI, however, the sport can not be considered new there.
What is new, BCCI selling rights. Chricket is a business. A business, no mater how well entrenched, ignoring the appearance of serious lack of business understanding, Will head down the hill.
While some immediately point to corruption, United States Of America Cricket Association, an Associate Member of the International Cricket Council, Past President's swift departure.
It was, still is, seriously bad management, not corruption. This is not an attempt to get into the negotiations, All sides must help cricket look good.
People Port hopes for a quick end to this. People around the world want to hear all about cricket's ups and downs on the field and the broadcasters may allow the disputed BCCI's lime light to dim.

Obama & Romney Will Not Get Into Heaven
Obama & Romney Will Not Get Into Heaven
I will not be voting for Obama or Romney. I do not vote, I write. Both had their chance to speak to People Port Welcomes The U of M's New Business Dean -It Is Institutionalized Slavery while in Miami. Not a word. Training after graduation with an advanced degree is good... Well not for me. For me it has been very bad. These two keeping silent, would keep them out of Heaven, if I were the Hidden Imam. No chance and that Republican Gold Heaven card is void.
We lost an Ambassador in Libya to terrorists. If that lack of security was part of his training -In any way- someone should be in real trouble. One would hope Chair Issa will put away his partisanship, Look into all the facts...

Governor Scott Your Executive Skills Are Inadequate
Governor Scott has become a real player with the media. His education budget was widely praised. His management of Unemployment Compensation has left people in charge that do not believe in that benefit. His Florida Unemployment (now Florida Department of Economic Opportunity) makeover held out hope.
Free skill upgrades, I wrote about it in FL Skill Test "All My Answers Were Wrong" In collecting unemployment, I have had many troubles with the State. People are suing because of the troubles. See Governor, unemployment helps stop deflation. True, some people have been flipping Real Estate again, however, Florida's market has not returned. I need my unemployment this will be my last check... Well it should have according to two weeks ago when I checked... About $21 short and my claim would automatically be recalculated. Now that will happen in Two weeks when I get my new last check for about $30...
I was warned by the RREs (Radical Republican Extremists): My article Child Welfare Information Gateway Current Statistics would bring your wrath. Now, my $42 food stamp benefit is not available.
Checked, nothing in my account or online. Sir, your are running a real government. Real people are affected each time you hire someone lacking competence. Your RREs are your problem. Fix my unemployment fund, My Food Stamp benefit card, today.

Syria, The Rebel Fighters, Must Push Hard For Peace.
Syria's civil war is spilling into its neighbors. The government is slow to say sorry, quick to fire. It appears to be an attempt at intimidation. Both China and Russia have said they could control the worst from happening, It does not look that way now.
Syria's bravado is dangerous. It is fairly easy not to fire mortars, rockets into your neighbor's lands. Both The government and the rebels must push hard for peace before it is imposed. Russia, China will not tolerate refugees being shelled. Turkey is a member of NATO.

Kidnappings, Torture Must Stop
Across the web, people claiming some sort of religious -right- are kidnapping and torturing. From the drug wars in Mexico to the battle in Syria, the tools, remnants of tortured souls litter the landscape.
While these perverted torturers, kidnappers, profess they honor God, they twist families in knots. These low people will not find Heaven when they die, they will know the horrors of hell. Unfortunately for them, their victims will be the ones in Heaven. These are very uneasy times. Many men claiming a unique knowledge of God are causing God problems.
In Iran, one thought, God opened up Hell to through a famous torturer, kidnapper, into hell. Hell revolted, throwing him back causing a great earthquake. No, the crows barked, it was just super-charged gunpowder, or that is what the little people of Iran thought happened. From around the globe, torture, kidnapping is on the rise.

A Peace Buds In The Southern Philippines -Bangsamoro
A peace deal was put together allowing an autonomous region, Bangsamoro (Area of the Moro), to form in the Southern Philippines. The deal was brokered by Malaysia as part of an ASEAN initiative. Peace is very hard to come by and this is not a done deal. Yet.
The area is full of rebels and armies. The armies are both private and government. The major difference this time, the major rebel group MILF (Moro Islamic Liberation Front), the next largest group has taken a wait and see attitude, actions speak to their desire for peace in this resource rich region. Peace deals are not new to the island nations or the ASEAN. It is their culture.
Europe's colonization found the area easy pickings. When Ferdinand Magellan arrived in the Philippines, he found a series highly civilized islands involved in global trade. The nations still like trade. The proposed area will offer Muslims all types of products they will not find anywhere else.
Many nations have played an active role in bring about this peace, however, it is the rebels themselves, Malaysia, and the Philippines that brought forth a chance at Heaven.
Note:
History of ASEAN
On 8 August 1967, five leaders - the Foreign Ministers of Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore and Thailand - sat down together in the main hall of the Department of Foreign Affairs building in Bangkok, Thailand and signed a document. By virtue of that document, the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) was born. The five Foreign Ministers who signed it - Adam Malik of Indonesia, Narciso R. Ramos of the Philippines, Tun Abdul Razak of Malaysia, S. Rajaratnam of Singapore, and Thanat Khoman of Thailand - would subsequently be hailed as the Founding Fathers of probably the most successful inter-governmental organization in the developing world today. And the document that they signed would be known as the ASEAN Declaration.

Thugs Will Not Stop Justice In Libya Or Egypt
The United States State Department, lost four great people yesterday, to power hungry thugs masquerading as religious zealots. Saint Muhammad the Prophet is in tears, Weeping, for the family members not coming home. They worked for justice.
Just as Jesus Christ helped humanity survive Nero, Saint Muhammad's work allowed the Mid-East to survive the Black Death. Wife beating, killing your offspring were also pet peeves of The Prophet. Note how they are still problems today. When honor killings are found, they do not always produce the angry mob. Cairo's angry mob was over a movie.
A movie's depiction of Saint Muhammad the Prophet's life: The young woman (his real wife was fifteen years his senior. YouTube has blocked the vedio) was mocking his vision of the Devil. They were not objecting to the depiction of family affairs. We have seen religion raise objections to movies before: Jesus Christ Superstar. Giving guidance to the sheep is not storming an embassy (Cairo).
The violent power grabbers will not allow peace to take hold. We all need to be on or guard.

Pakistan Seeks End To Extremism, No One Should Die For Blasphemy
Pakistan's President, Asif Ali Zardari
Pakistan's President, Asif Ali Zardari, has asked the Pakistani people to move toward a nation of peace, in honor of Eid-ul-Fitr. He lost Governor Taseer to a fanatic. The Fanatic's reason, the Governor stance on Pakistan's blasphemy laws.
While Pakistan fanatics claim this is what God wants, They are wrong, pigheaded and their actions insult Saint Mohammed. They frequently forget this Earth worships the same God and God is pure love. From press reports, a christian girl faces death for some type blasphemy. For the world to understand just how insulting the fanatics are, you may want to view this Governor Salmaan Taseer video.
Pakistan's President Asif Ali Zardari, deserves praise, high honor, for his brave Pakistani wish,
Eid-ul-Fitr is a day of peace, tranquillity and harmony. Let us resolve to dedicate ourselves to spend our energies and resources for the welfare of the humanity in accordance with Islamic teachings. Let us also resolve to refrain from all anti-social activities such as sectarianism, extremism. Let us vow to make Pakistan a hub of peace and harmony by putting all our efforts towards national progress and prosperity.
We hope the President succeeds and his success does not lead to his death. May God enable Pakistan.

Iran Start Patenting
Ex-Iranian Envoy Mousavian's speech in June to the Arms Control Association's annual meeting, proposed the concept of zero stockpile approach for Iran's uranium enrichment. The organization recently warned the United States's Congress, Increasing pressure on Tehran have recently forced cracks in international support.
Many nations now fear Iranian's boasts of the missles and the material to deliver a nuclear payload. As their Leader encourages his nation to turn their troubles into opportunities to leap ahead of the world's current technology. They may have...
Boasts become facts as nations gain international patents. Iran's nano-patents seem to confirm Iran's ability. The world would better understand Iran's intent with nuclear patents.

Syria, We Are The World
A reminder, to Syria, The world is watching. The battle has grown furious -both sides appear desperate to the world watching children dying, Pilgrims kidnapped, blood in the Arab Street.
The warring sides PR machines has ramped up and I am reminded of Michael Jackson's and Lionel Richie's We Are The World's Eighties smash. The modern day song is a Haitian fundraiser.
The song changed a generation with a feel-good moment. A few of Today's leaders have kept it close to their hearts. The warring sides would do well if they recall the PR impact that song had in their youth.

Reverend Ma's Actions May Move World Closer To Peace
China gave her citizens freedom of religion in 1950. She sees religion as an opportunity for her people to unite along another common thread in a nation's tapestry. The Universal Church, founded by Saint Peter, sees China's political appointments as harming China's people.
Both China and the Vatican wanted the ordination of the Reverend Thaddeus Ma Daqin as Auxiliary Bishop of the Diocese of Shanghai. He saw the higher -ethical- obligation, if press reports are correct. Unable to conform account on Xinhua.
Both China and the Vatican have slowly moved toward normalizing their political beings. With the help of Reverend Ma, the two may see talking has its advantages. Reverend Ma's actions may move Earth closer to peace.

Do We Need A Witch Hunters Or Independent Prosecutors?
Our Attorney General is commended for picking independent prosecutors in consultation with the Senate's Judiciary and Intelligence Committee.
Senator Grassely points out, National Security Division at the Department has been recused from involvement in the leak investigation —a signal they could possibly be the source of the leak. Senator Graham believes a writer and his source may be to blame.
The Attorney General -incised by the leaks- said in his opening statement, "Let me be clear: unauthorized disclosures of classified information could jeopardize the security of our nation, and risk the safety of the American people. They will not be tolerated."
While this is a good way to get members of the press's attention, I would point out the Attorney General has revamped his Civil Rights Division without huge media attention.

Why Is There War Where Christ Walked?
"We must stay vigilant and not let them fan the flames of ethnic, tribal and sectarian conflicts. This is our demand. This is our advice to all the sides that are involved in the issues,"
June 3, 2012 by Ayatollah Khamenei the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution on the occasion of Imam Khomeini's (r.a.) 23rd demise anniversary.
Shia-Sunni context, True, however, all can benefit. Isreal, Iran, Vatican, and Saudi Araba are repeatedly slammed for being who they have always been. All protect relegion. Mecca is ruled by a King, with some local elections, however, all can benefit Ayatollah's words. From Matthew, Luke, and Mark, Jesus Christ said, "Give to Ceaser What is Ceaser's..."
A practicle manifestation of the Church and State Seperation. I have thought, Church-States can enable peace. I still beleave mankind may benefit from the insights Church-States offer.
We must remember, this is the Middle East and their newer arguments go back hundreds of years. Very easy to find fault, however, what did they do?
If true, Isreal is making room for thousands more Syrian refugees, Iran took in millions of Afganis, Saudi Arabia hosts millions -each year- visiting Mecca, and The Vatican serves millions every day around the world. If this hand-full of country-state saints cannot solve the Mid-East problems, mankind, must ask, Why?

Use The Iranian Talks To End All Nuclear
As the world waits for Iran to give up her nuclear ambitions, context is required. Iran fought a horrible war with Iraq. People Port asks our leaders to end forever the world's need for nuclear weapons. Total elimination of all uses of nuclear should be our world's goal. Not easy. Myself, I invented a nuclear battery -love the concept. Radiation has saved, extended, improved so many lives -these words seem ludicrous.
We must remember, the building blocks of our universe is God's domain. Our fiddling has reaped huge benefits to man and is currently bringing mankind closer to war. It is time to step back. Establish what nuclear is and a time frame...

Good Job Boss
Executive Order 12919 has the world wondering. Is this some re-election twist or real update. The Order simplifies a president's stress testing of government and industry.
Clinton's safeguards were enhances and once again a modernday leader relied steadfastly on our Declaration of Independence, ...with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor.. Excellent.
The peace-time war games may highlight a Katrina event or an industry our nation no longer hosts but needs. These are all great concepts. This and the last administration rose to meet this Great Recession. E.O. 12919 will keep future administrations ready, even if that means some will not get a paycheck.
(03/23/2012)Update: Boss Background
In Miami-Dade County it was customary to refer to a President as Boss. An example, "Hey the Boss is in town, overtime," Often, for many it meant, mow the grass, trim the hedges... President Obama is not my boss, nor does he hold any type of sway over editorial decisions. Sorry Boss.

Shame On You Football Fans
Fixing our nation's football obsession will not be easy. From bounty systems to college kids over-celebrations, the problems are systemic. Those problems may take away a region's pride in the midst of one more rebuilding -very bad- and could take down university presidents.
Players associations have given more than lip service to addressing the issues, however, these problems are fan based. Owners understand -Pleasing the fans keep the seats filled.
When a college player receives a game ending injury, the old colleges-are-farm-teams argument is brought out. Most fail to mention the pros do not share in the collage football's money pot. The NFL could buy insurance for collage players.
Do not pretend to follow the sport. I can say I would enjoy watching a Gators, Bulldog game. The best football -I remember- is Notre Dame, Miami.
I would point to a slightly different approach: The collage team finishing first each year, loses 10 scholarships, ninth loses nine... Football gave kids with no chance of ever getting an education, a real education (loans were few back then). The actions reported by the NFL on the field would turn the game into a blood sport, not a good family image. Sports in high schools, collages are about coaching kids to be their best, it may work.
Note:
I do not cover sports. I do regularly slam the University of Miami, they worked very hard for that spot, however, too many very good football players decided not to attend college because they were offered... to play football. Those players loved the game and would positively impact our economy.
