Counter-acting the Flip

This is now just weeks after the January 6 insurrection at the Capitol, and days after Trump's second impeachment trial, and the arrests are continuing on while Donald Trump is acquitted. What can counter-flip those prions? What can counter-flip QAnon conspiracy theories? What can "de-program" 74 million voters who believed the 30,000 lies Trump told over the four years of his administration? 

 I believe the prions flip when someone lies or tells a rumor. The problem is the truth doesn't overcome the lie, and that is why it is so hard to flip prions back to their former state. When we learned at the prayer circle is that once the grand lie has been told, it reaches the point where no one knows who to trust, and the only thing anyone can trust is Universal Law. 

My project in my organization is the Exit Strategy for Iraq. It establishes a protocol for ending genocides, which are based on weaving an illusion. George W. Bush told a Grand Lie to justify the preemptive strike on Iraq, and how many patriotic people believed the lie, joined the military and went to Iraq over and over again, being blocked by Iraqi people who were trying to live their lives without interference? I have heard there are 20 US soldiers a day who commit suicide. The United States must address the legality of the Iraq War. 

One of my booklets is "A Patch of Heaven." Seven US soldiers who died in Iraq came to me and asked me to write a book about their stories. It is a kind of "Chicken Soup for the Soul" book, and will eventually become a series. The soldiers tell what set the stage for their deaths. I shared the booklet with two veterans, one from World War II, a tail gunner stationed in England, and he watched a man who had a premonition that he would die that day get shot down, and he was haunted by the sight. After reading the booklet, he was a peace. Another man was in Viet Nam, and he hadn't gotten back on track again, but after he read the booklet, he was able to go on and get his life, letting go of the "family" of vets like him who he was so close to. 

We went into Iraq and our troops were injured or killed, and we felt we were victims of the Iraqi people. Were we the victims or the villains, or were we just people who believed the lie or were dragged into it and we lost our unalienable rights to live our lives without interference? 

Another unalienable right is to be able to have a voice in our government. Hundreds of thousands of people around the world protested the preemptive strike on Iraq. Our voices were not heard. They were blocked by the governments who believe power through strength. Middle Age thinking. 

I watched an appellate court case of an Iraqi woman who was taking George W. Bush to court for the damage he had done to her and her family. She lost the case because the DOJ defended the president's right to do his job, but it left me frustrated, so I wrote a letter to the Supreme Court and introduced Universal Law once again into our legal system. It actually makes wars unlawful now, but it is being blocked. 

We have to remember the power any government has is derived from the people, and that Universal Law is immutable. When we protest, we have to offer a plan that benefits everyone or our voices go unheard.
