About this user
I really feel for the victims and survivors and I did not want them to just be forgotten and the crimes perpetrated against them forgotten. It's important for us to remember such crimes in one form or the other because it keeps us vigilant, and if we are vigilant it is more difficult for such crimes to come to pass again in the future. Even more, the survivors and victims have very painfully compelling stories that deserve to be heard and the crimes against them exposed in all of it's ugly horror to the view of the world.
Though the U.S. and Israel are the top targets here because they happen to be the most recent violators and blatant users of chemical warfare against civilians (and also because there is a ton of Youtube content available on their actions), The Humanity Initiative is critical of all the World Powers for their use of chemical weapons against civilian life, including: Britain, Germany, France, Italy, Russia, Japan, China as well as such sham justice organizations as the United Nations and the Organization for the Prevention of Chemical Weapons which are often notoriously silent when such atrocities are committed by the World Powers.
I sincerely believe that chemical weapons and WMD in general are weapons created and used by people with the darkest of hearts and are a hate crime of the highest form against humanity.
The ultimate and all consuming goal of The Humanity Initiative is World Peace.

Interests
The Social Sciences, Chemical Weapons and Hazardous Materials, Science and Chemistry, Social Justice, the American Criminal Justice System, Social Work, Poverty, Religion, Advocacy, State Terrorism (particularly if it involves Chemical Weapons). On a Lighter Note: Reading, Writing, Popular Culture, being online, Animals (ESPECIALLY Raccoons and Cats), feeding abandoned animals and helping others - the disadvantaged and the voiceless.
WHERE I CAN BE FOUND: I can often be found in girtty, grey and sometimes grim and desolate industrial areas. Not many people venture to such places and I can often get a lot of reading done as well as a lot of thinking. Or just being alone for the sake of being alone.
THE BEST GIFT SOMEONE CAN PRESENT ME WITH: I'm a brainy sort so I would be your best friend forever (or at least a very long time) if you got me one (or all) of the following: Dictionary, Almanac (preferably one by TIME magazine or The New York Times), Thesaurus, Encyclopedia - books of knowledge with the knowledge of the World itself at your fingertips :)
