The Iraq War for living hearts

Stefan Molyneux -Host of Freedomain Radio

This is internet philosopher Stefan Molyneux reading the article, No Remembrance, No Remorse for the Fallen of Iraq by documentarian John Pilger. This is old news. 2007, to be specific, and I wouldn’t normally cannibalize someone else’s work so shamelessly, but if you’ve got 23 minutes I strongly recommend giving it your full attention for the full duration. Because this is not about current events. It’s not about partisan politics, or political activism. It’s about common humanity. So, I invite you to spend the next 23 minutes with your heart wide open. To watch, not with your eyes, but with that inner vision, where the soul is vulnerable to the Truth. And when you’re in that state, just push play.

Go ahead… I’ll wait.

When was the last time you cried for mankind? We now live in such a vast ocean of pop culture and propaganda that it’s difficult to distinguish Truth from reality. We are bombarded by so many contradictory messages that it’s like living in a fog… the fog of war. Our living hearts buried deep inside a fortress of scar tissue.

It’s becoming a struggle just to carry a living heart. The suffering in the world is so acute, the tragedy so intense, that the soul adapts with calloused nihilism. Better to be numb than to feel that. But we have to feel. It does not matter the country, the race, the religion, the gender. We must retain our empathy for humanity or we will lose that which makes us human. My dear reader, we must have the courage to carry living hearts! Otherwise, this predation will never stop.

    Evil UK and US and it must be backed by those evil Jews.....typical rhetoric...standard appeal to emotion without solution....everyone knows how to complain. Shame Obama is at the heart of this.
    Still a sad loss of life....

    Bavi r u skitzo? "common humanity" does not equal "typical rhetoric" about "evil Jews." How is it possible Obama is at the heart of the Iraq war when Bush was in office? Can u read? Did u read? What r u talking about?
