“….. Here is the prediction: China will turn North Korea loose soon. The alliance will dissolve, or become stale. There will be political upheaval in China. Not a coup and not a revolution. Within the inner circles of that which you call Chinese politics, there will be a re-evaluation of goals and monetary policy. Eventually, you will see a break with North Korea, allowing still another dictator to fall and unification to occur with the south. ….”

“… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …”

U.S. vetoes draft UN resolution condemning Israel's continued settlement activities

UNITED NATIONS, Feb. 18 (Xinhua) -- The United States, a permanent Security Council member, on Friday vetoed a UN draft resolution that condemned continued Israeli settlement activities in the West Bank and East Jerusalem and demanded Israel " immediately and completely cease" all such activities in the occupied Palestinian territories.

The 14 other Council members voted in favor of the draft resolution, co-sponsored by more than 120 UN members.

"The draft resolution was not adopted due to a negative vote from a permanent member" of the 15-nation Council, Brazilian UN Ambassador Maria Luiza Ribertro Viotti, who holds the rotating Council presidency for February, announced after the voting.

The vote, which began following closed-door consultations among the 15 Council members, came after the Palestinians refused a compromise offered by the United States in exchange for the withdrawal of the draft resolution.

After her negative vote on the draft resolution, Susan Rice, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, told the Security Council that "our opposition to the resolution before this Council today should therefore not be misunderstood to mean we support settlement activity. On the contrary, we reject in the strongest terms the legitimacy of continued Israeli settlement activity."

"This draft resolution risks hardening the positions of both sides," Rice argued. "It could encourage the parties to stay out of negotiations and if and when they did resume to return to the Security Council whenever they reach an impasse."

"The United States has been deeply committed to pursuing a comprehensive and lasting peace between Israel and the Palestinians," she stressed.

"In that context, we have been focused on taking steps that advance the goal of two states living side by side in peace and security, rather than complicating it," Rice said. "That includes a commitment to work in good faith with all parties to underscore our opposition to continued settlements."

By the negative vote at the Security Council, the United States once again used its veto power to stop any initiative against Israel -- its close ally in the Middle East.

The draft resolution condemned "the continuation of settlement activities by Israel, the occupying power, in the occupied Palestinian territory, including East Jerusalem, and of all other measures aimed at altering the demographic composition, character and status of the (Palestinian) territory, in violation of international humanitarian law and other relevant (UN) resolutions. "

The Security Council "reaffirms that the Israeli settlements established in the Palestinian territory occupied since 1967, including East Jerusalem, are illegal and constitute a major obstacle to the achievement of a just, lasting and comprehensive peace," said the draft resolution.

The Security Council "reiterates its demand that Israel, the occupying power, immediately and completely cease all settlement activities in the occupied Palestinian territory, including East Jerusalem, and that it fully respect all of its legal obligations in this regard," the draft added.

The draft resolution also called on both Israelis and Palestinians to "act on the basis of international law and their previous agreements and obligations, including under the Roadmap, aimed at improving the situation on the ground, building confidence and creating the conditions necessary for promoting the peace process."

Speaking at the Security Council meeting after the vote was cast, Riyad Mansor, the permanent Palestinian observer to the United Nations, said: "The proper message that should have been sent by the Security Council to Israel, the occupying power, is that its contempt of international law and the international community will no longer be tolerated."

"We fear, however, that the message sent today may be one that only encourages Israeli intransigence and impunity," the Palestinian ambassador added.

Also speaking after the Council vote, Israeli Ambassador to the UN Meron Reuben said that the only way forward between Israel and the Palestinians is through direct negotiations.

"We reiterate our call to the Palestinians to return to the negotiating table without preconditions, so that negotiations can resume without further delay," Reuben said while addressing the Security Council meeting.

According to Reuben, "Israel continues to demonstrate its willingness to renew talks," and its goal is to resolve "all outstanding issues."

"This goal is within reach," Reuben said.

In his speech Reuben noted that the vote of the United States against the draft resolution "reflects the understanding that the only way forward is through direct negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians."
