Please search the internet for many more ideas on strengthening peace. I have listed over 500 ideas on how to strengthen the peace on my website GoingForAGlobalTruce.com
I am a 51 year old social worker from Brooklyn, NY seeking to inspire all the nations of the world to enter into a truce and a cease fire.
I am proposing an International Peace Every Day Treaty for Global Truce and Global Cease Fire as well as the African Peace Every Day Treaty for African Truce and African Cease Fire to be signed and adhered to beginning 9/21/12. Please help make this vision of peace become reality by following the path to peace by calling for all Africans and all Humanity to begin a” Cease Fire Now!”
Please Say: May Peace Prevail On Earth and Let It Begin With Me!
Sincerely,
Michelle Lee Rosenthal, LMSW
