   Until we elect a leader who cannot be swayed by emotions of any kind   
   then we will never achieve that goal.. Let's move onto something more   
   realistic because I don't want any world leaders who are completely   
   dispassionate.

   Inside the Yin/Yang symbol each side has a dot of the opposite sides   
   color. While it makes the design look neat it can also be interpreted   
   this way:   
      
   One side is War, the other Peace.   
   Within War there is the possibility of acheiving peace, and during peace   
   there is the possibility of a war starting.   
   simplified to be sure, but it means that any condition has in it the   
   capability of becoming the opposite condition, or contains elements of   
   the opposite condition in order to be a Whole Thing.   
      
   for every horrible picture of a charred body you also see a picture of   
   some poor soldier somewhere sharing his own meager lunch with some half   
   starved person who doesn't have a lunch of their own.
