GPN
asks the reader, 'Have you ever been one of those who claimed the
quotations from Ahmadinejad about destroying Israel did not read the
same way as the original Iranian text, or plain that he doesn't mean it?'
In this issue of GPN, see a gripping, haunting, real-life account of persecution and courage in Darfur.
GPN
conveys heartfelt wishes to the peoples of both Pakistan and Nigeria
where there has been serious flooding to bear their incredible suffering
with as little loss of life as possible. We urge the Pakistan and
Nigerian government to undertake maximum rescue and support operations,
and for other countries and the United Nations and other international
agencies such as the Red Cross to extend the maximum assistance
possible.
GPN 'sings'
with the people of the entire world in joy and admiration of the rescue
of the 33 trapped miners in Chile. The happiness of the reunions and
the joy of the community are the side of our human natures that we seek
to promote over our also terrifyingly natural human inclinations to kill
and destroy human life.

Welcome to our readers of Issue 4 of GPN GENOCIDE PREVENTION NOW
We Need to Act
This is a powerful issue that protests appeasement, indifference and passivity.
Along
with a wide range of news and features about many aspects of many
genocides and developments in genocide studies and prevention, this
issue of
GPN includes powerful reviews and summaries of the developments in IRAN, SUDAN-DARFUR and NORTH KOREA.
We
believe that significant real action is called for in respect of IRAN's
threats to develop nuclear weapons – see the several years of
ridiculously self-righteous denials by people who may mean well in their
quest for a peaceful world but who, like in pre
World War II days, have played right into the hands of calculating totalitarians who are arming to KILL.
We
believe that significant real interventions are called for in respect
of SUDAN's evident and ongoing, let alone imminent intensification of
genocide – how many more campaigns raising money and writing petitions
can we tolerate while the killing goes on without real actions to stop
it?
We believe that we need a significantly real policy towards
NORTH KOREA that continues its nuclear testing and supplies powerful
weaponry to Iran and others, even as it is ruled by a despotic family of
dictators who can hardly be counted on to act rationally and
humanistically-- and God only knows what and when they will do next.
Granted
the needs and challenges are awesome and quite obviously beyond the
conventional resources of a USA struggling with aspects of decline, or
of our current international system and its several corrupt
anti-democratic players. But without a consortium of life-respecting
countries sounding an inspired call to protect human life everywhere on
the planet, and without a resolution to address the most pressing
problems, the dwindling free world is riding for a terrifying
apocalyptic fall.
Of all the current problems, we believe the
immediate dangers of weapons of mass destruction in the hands of
totalitarian regimes and transnational terrorist groups is the most
imminent and pressing, and will set the note for the larger survival of
our civilization or not. It is getting that bad that the stakes are now
reaching towards the global and the survival of our species.
Our
message to our scholarly and professional field of genocide studies and
prevention is also evident in this issue. We believe the time has come
for our discipline to make calculated efforts to translate emerging
understanding of the genocidal process into tools for action and
projects that aim to impact in a real way on our dangerous world. We
want to work toward reducing deaths and injury from intentional
violence, the most extreme example of which is genocide. Waxing forth
in lecture and seminar rooms while the forces of
Talaats/Hitlers/Stalins/Maos/Pol
Pots/Miloseviches/Ahmadinejads/Bashirs/and more command, and strut and
murder doesn't make any kind of sense, not even allowable academic
nonsense. The issues are too serious and real.
R 2 L – Right to Life, A Proposal for a Worldwide Organization of Genocide Victim Peoples
Be sure also to see in this issue a proposal for a
WORLDWIDE UNION OF GENOCIDE VICTIM PEOPLES – AND ALL CARING PEOPLE – ON BEHALF OF A RIGHT TO LIFE OF ALL PEOPLE – R 2 L.
What do YOU think? Are the various victim peoples YOU know
ready to join in recognizing and caring the for histories of
other
peoples who have suffered genocide, and to work with them together in
an umbrella organization that contributes to the prevention of genocides
in our time?
GPN is Winning Accolades and Distribution
On a more mundane everyday level of good living, we also admit to our pleasures in the journalism of
GPN.
It is fun to bring you a wide range of information and analysis on the
subject of protecting human life from genocide and genocidal terrorism
and massacres. We are grateful and excited at the wonderful feedback we
are receiving from many readers all around the world. An amazing
number of GPN articles in our first three issues have earned visible placements on Google Searches, and GPN
itself as Genocide Prevention Now has moved quickly to a prominent
position. Your editors are continuing to explore and learn the range of
tools available in this new journalistic medium of a "webmag" (web
magazine), at once so familiar, yet in so many new ways also unfamiliar
to our tried and true editorial habits of many years.
GPN is Reprint Friendly
Behind the scenes, we do a great deal to make it possible
for you to reprint easily individual articles and stories in
GPN
for classroom and group instruction. Please avail yourselves of this
resource freely. While you do not have to write us for permission, we
will be grateful if you would email us ever so briefly of your use of a GPN article for instructional purposes. E-mail: gpn.general@genocidepreventionnow.org
Feedback or Letters to the Editor
We intend to
introduce a Feedback or Letters to the Editor mechanism. Watch for it.
We wish you good reading and renewed inspiration to act on behalf of human life and against genocide.
Best wishes from all of us on the
GPN Staff,

A mental health perspective of the man who says 9/11 was executed by the US and who feels the aura of the Hidden Imam when speaking to the UN; Ahmadinejad is not really a clown of our time - he is a menacing reality .
