I was a bombadier in WW 2. When you are up 30,000 feet
you do not hear the screams or smell the blood or see

But peace does not rest in the charters and covenants alone. It lies in the hearts and minds of all people.

I believe that we can. I believe the problems of human destiny are not beyond the reach of human beings.
