The Truth...

All war is deception. 
-Sun Tzu the art of war

Bullets and guns are made to kill from a distance. Ultimately they make sure that no matter what you are never able to talk to the people on the other side, and see their point of views, or to see them as even human and to work things out. They keep you from the truth. The only reason people go to war is because they don't know the people on the other side, nobody knows the other side or even themselves. This not knowing the truth is what leads to wars and attrition. The game of "chess" over the Chinese game of "go".
If you want to end all war in the world for all time... make communication between people easy. The freedom of speech. Develope a technology that makes it easy to talk to the other side beyond the guns and artillary and barbed wire. A way to talk beyond all barriers. Other than the laser style sound projector that the military has now, Cell phones could be the breakthrough technology but is also one of the most hackable technologies ever. So it is also one of the most dangerous technologies ever.

It will be very interesting to see if the whole world is destroyed or saved. At least something is happening. And there are still 2 sides so it's not over yet.

...The Truth is the most powerful force in the universe...

The most interesting stories to watch right now is how the president will wiggle out of the scrutiny he's under right now whether he be right or wrong. And to see if afghanistan becomes a narcostate at the same time as the golden triangle and pakistan drug states go under. That's what's interesting to me at the moment.

If you monopolize the truth then you monopolize the power. Secrets and the truth are a powerful thing. And with great power comes great responsibility.
