		<description>OBAMA, HOW ABOUT HOPE AND CHANGE FOR IRAN?

We elected Obama on his promise of hope and change.  Why does he not go to the U.N. to express our revulsion of the Iranian regime’s violence against young students wanting to live in freedom?  He has been very outspoken in condemning our country for what he considers to be past faults.  Where is his voice now?  Does he not think the Iranian people need change and hope?  Tell him yourself; call or write to Congress!  For sure let him know in the 2010 election!  
=============================================================
THIS IS A MESSAGE ESPECIALLY FOR IRANIANS and all GOOD MUSLIMS across the world.  

The above is by the author of the soon to be published book
UNTROUBLING A TROUBLED WORLD - PEACE 4 EVER.
IF RECEIVED BY NEWSPAPERS, Please print the above.  Since margin calls make it impossible for me to pay for advertising, I do not ask you to print what is below.  Thank you

The author, Dr. J. Knowname, must use a pseudonym as the last author to write such a book had a fatwa issued against him, an order to all Muslims to kill him on sight.  Lovely chaps!  The book is dedicated to “The Good People of Iraq.”

The book explains how the patient can control his own health care, choose his doctor, PAY LESS and receive first class medical care.

 Initially the author was determined to contribute at least 85% 
of proceeds from his royalties to a PEACE 4 EVER Charitable Trust for medical research, for payment to a hospital and/or to an organization to further world peace.  But severe stock market losses now allow him to contribute only 15% of royalties should any come in.    

The book lays out a clear path for establishing and maintaining WORLD PEACE and how to make it impossible for individuals or corporations from adding to their wealth as a result of war.
TAKE THE PROFIT OUT OF WAR!

The author explains succinctly how our country, Russia and any other nation can have a Government of the People, by the People and for the People and have a capitalist, free enterprise system free of corruption that can benefit the masses.  

There is also a chapter in this book on how to END ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION in a humane way.  It also explains the serious impact and burden on our medical care across the country and covers just about any controversial problem you can think of and offers sound solutions.  In his spare time he is working toward doing away with the combustion engine and replacing it with electric cars.  

* * * * * * * * * * *
If you wish to receive one of the first copies of
UNTROUBLING A TROUBLED WORLD ever printed on planet earth
and be the first on the block to own one, just e-mail us at: usaawake@bellsouth.net
Type CODE 183 in the Subject Line
Send NO MONEY!
As soon as books become available, we will e-mail needed information to you.
Thank you.

PLEASE SEND THIS TO ALL ON YOUR E-MAIL LIST and
 to NEWSPAPERS if you can.  
This will be your good deed for the day!

P.S.  I am 80 years old and fear for the future of humanity.  I hope to live to see some good results by people speaking up for love instead of hate, for life instead of death and for survival of the human race.  
P.P.S.  THIS IS A MESSAGE ESPECIALLY FOR GOOD MUSLIMS across the world.  My best thoughts seem to come to me as I awake in the morning.  I asked myself how I might get this message to spread like wildfire.  Suddenly, it occurred to me to see if Iranian groups existed in the U.S.  Before breakfast or putting out the trash - a standing  order from the Association president - I went to the computer.  I was thrilled to find that there are many.  I now really believe that it is in your hands to bring LOVE AND GOOD-WILL to all men, to all of mankind no matter how different we may be.    

WE MAY CONSIDER THIS AS PART OF A PLAN TO BRING ABOUT
LASTING WORLD PEACE, I HOPE!

There are 26,700 Iranian clubs and associations.  Obviously, I would have to live several lifetimes for me to reach all of them, which is my goal.  Naturally, by goal is not to live several times as once is enough for me, thank you.  I do not know if this is the best plan, but it is the best I can think of for reaching all or most of them if you wish to assist in the project.  The Iranian people come from an old and to be admired civilization and deserve better than what they now are subjected to.  PLEASE HELP.  

We are limited to only 26 letters in the alphabet; so if you receive this e-mail on June 18 to June 24 please use the first letter of your last name to send to the first three organizations of the 26,700.

If you receive this e-mail from June 25 to July1, please use the first letter of your last name to send to the first three organizations after the fourth organization on the list of the 26,700.

If you receive this e-mail from July 2 to July 8, please use the first letter of your last name to send to the first three after the eight organization on the list of the 26,700.

From July 9 onward, I give you permission (lucky you) to figure out the pattern and continue until the world is at PEACE 4 EVER.  

If you wish to send more copies at any time or during the same week, please go to the organization at the end (that would be at 26,700 and do as above working backward. Regardless, the world will be indebted to you no matter how you do it.  I do not know if what I figured out makes sense; so I would appreciate knowing of a better plan if you can think of one.  Thank you.  J.K.</description>

		<description>The mullahs may have long feared that change would eventually come in reaction to their abuse of the population. Many have moved the proceeds of their pilfering offshore, “just in case.” Some have built themselves Los Angeles and West Vancouver mansions, in anticipation that the gun might eventually not suppress the crowds in Tehran.

The potential for change is directly conditional on the persistence and endurance of the youth filling the streets of Iran. It will be unstoppable if the demonstrations move to the poorer rural regions of the country.

This genie is out of the bottle. Change may be slow in coming, nevertheless, it will come.</description>

		<description>Great. Here in Perú there were something similar, with the attack on indigenous people at Bagua. Twitter and others have helped to share info not published at first by mainstream media, but i don&#039;t think it was critical in the change of Government attitude. A factor, would be better said.</description>
