Afghan youth to the world's elite, Please behave like adults.wmv

Dear friends,
We, the nobodies of Afghanistan, ask this with love.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TB9er3w_oto
This is the love which our mothers have taught us. So please, don't belittle this love with the haughty confusion of 'Muslim' or 'Christian' anger and hate.
We plead with trembling because people are dying, dying in ways which rob us of all human meaning and which cause us to cry.
To our own Afghan elite, the American elite and the coalition elite of our failing world :
Please behave like adult human beings!
You are trapped as unfortunate models of an unsustainable, a-rational, a-moral, global militant system that is grossly self-seeking ( forgive us for sounding like we're about to vomit or throw shoes at your Presidents... )
Please stop your childish, frantic and violent nonsense in Afghanistan.
You imagine that you must 'win' more wars, more power and more wealth to 'win' votes and remain as cruel kings, but if and when you've proclaimed 'victory' over the dead, remember that neither the dead nor the living will honour you.
You no longer represent the wishes of your ordinary citizens.
What you have been representing are the cowardly vices that we detest about ourselves, vices we're all prone to but which we must shun : utter greed, pride and self-interest.
So please, for now or forever, go as far away from us as your fancy planes will take you.
Start listening to the People, thinking about the People and loving the People. At least, behave like decent adults.
You need to do this, because you know you are not beasts.
To the ordinary People of our disconnected world :
Please behave like adult human beings!
You, like us, have been de-sensitized in allowing the inhumane fantasy that more killing, more money-grabbing, and more blood-resources can justify our leaders and make everyone happier.
You know that's a lie.
So, please get out onto your streets.
Get out in the critical millions.
Join us on International Day of Peace 21st of September in Bamiyan Afghanistan, to make friends without borders, asking loudly and softly, gently and angrily, joyfully and painfully, any unique way, but only with love, asking
"Why not love?"
" Chera mohabat na-kuneem?"
"چرا محبت نکنیم؟ "
"Enough of the war narratives! Here we are, friends who refuse to be 'enemies'!"
And this time, don't stop till we get some answers, because People are dying.
We need to do this, because we know we are not beasts.
Wanting love, the way we dream of love to be,
Hakim and the Afghan Youth Peace Volunteers
