“The UN should arrange, as US forces leave, for an international group of peacekeepers and negotiators from the Arab countries to bring together Shiites, Sunnis and Kurds, and work out a solution for self-governance that would give all three groups a share in political power. Simultaneously, the UN should arrange for shipments of food and medicine, from the United States and other countries, as well as engineers to help rebuild the country.” GivingShouldWellsSelfCountryStatesHelpingTogetherPoliticalThreeForceUnitedUnited StatesGroupsShareSolutionsMedicineInternationalWork OutEngineersOther CountriesGovernancePolitical PowerKurdsPeacekeepers Author:Howard Zinn
“Slavery was a central concern of governance form the time of the first nation-state. The Code of Hammurabi, the earliest know set of laws for governing an empire, prescribed death for anyone who harbored a fugitive or otherwise helped a slave to escape. The relationship between the law and bondage goes back even farther: Indeed, the oldest extant legal documents don't concern the sale of land, houses, or even animals, but slaves.” KnowsFirstsStatesFormLawHouseNationsAnimalLandConcernSlaverySlaveCodeEmpiresDocumentsBondageGovernanceGoverningFugitive Book:The Culture of Make Believe Source: The Culture of Make Believe
