Founded in 1996 against U.S. CNN, Al Jazeera is spreading around the world a voice of the Arab population in anti-American nationality, pan-Islamic perspective. Al Jazeera started to be known in the West through ‘war on terror’.
When is it emerging as a global broadcasting? Al-Jazeera revealed for the first time whatit says isanewaudiotapefromal-Qaida leader Osama binLaden.
Although some media outlets in the West points out that biased to the al Qaeda since 9/11, looking at Al Jazeera they report objective and fair, and any forces in the world, unbiased independent reports.
Interbrand assessed Al Jazeera as the world’s most influential media brand in 2004. Following Apple, Google, Starbucks and IKEA, Al Jazeera recorded the world`s fifth-largest brand power in brand impact survey. Al Jazeera English gain 100 million households viewers, Broadcast news linked to the YouTube was to make the top 10 list and The website hits more than 60 million a week.
The motto of the independent, objective toward Al Jazeera broadcast news is ‘World News, Local Viewpoint’. They are trying to act to match their motto. Al Jazeera is now represent ‘conscience of the Middle East’. In that news we can see How innocent citizens were suffering and dying in war.
Al Jazeera will make HWPL special documentary to report in over 140 countries.
This business agreement was signed in September 18th. We know that beacuse IGIHE reported on October 7th 2016.
HOW?
Cooperative relationship between HWPL and Al Jazeera started in Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW) at March 14th 2016 in Seoul.
After Al Jazeera are deeply moved by Lee’s devoted peace activities, Al Jazeera has continued to interact with HWPL.
The purpose of this memorandum is to lead ‘World Peace’. How? Two organizations worked together to rapidly deliver peace education and culture of peace to everyone, including women, youth, religious leaders.
What is DPCW?
Do you know ‘2nd Annual Commemoration of the WARP(World Alliance of Religions Peace) Summit’? Here in ‘Advocacy Forum for the DPCW’ They understand the role of each layer and discuss the action plan to present ‘DPCW’ to the United Nations. So that it can be established by international law.
Lee says “The Declaration that we drafted is a new legal framework that can bring about the cessation of war and world peace. Prime ministers and chief justices together with the National Assembly of each nation must acknowledge the value and principles of the DPCW and propel and support the development process of the DPCW. All of us who are moving forward to the creation of the new era of peace have to work together to complete our common goal of peace. This will be eternally recorded in history as the work of light to the world.”
“Civil society has to participate with governments in the codification and progressive development of international law. Indeed, CSO represent the conscience of Humankind and their voices are essential to ensure progress in the action taken by States within the United Nations. The DPCW provides positive elements to foster the dialogue and reconciliation among religions. Religious leaders should continue their work against the fundamentalism and the political instrumentalization of some religions. Women, youth and political leaders from around the world, are invited to join their voices to achieve peace and cessation of war as a binding rule of all States.”
2014 WARP(World Alliance of Religions Peace Summit) is assessed at the greatest peaceful event of all time. This event participate with 30 countries head of state, 50 ministerial personnel, 680 religious leaders in 120 countries and 600 youth activists in 150 countries .
After that, HWPL have events to mark every year. In this ‘2nd Annual Commemoration of the WARP Summit’ people can feel authenticity of peace movement and they think it is systematical and emotional events.

You’re feelings are really really important.
Isn’titbeautiful? This charter is really beautiful. But the reality is?
I want to ask you first. Did you know UN has that purpose?
I want to ask people who work in UN. Did you know UN has that purpose?
I want to ask people who lead UN. Did you know UN has that purpose?
Is it a hollow crys? Is it Only remains through words?
Would ‘PEACE’ touch your mind?
If you had seen a war, you must long forpeace.
If you are a victim, you must long for peace.
If your people has died, you must long for peace.
We need to press on a little bit more.
“Everything is lost in war. Everything is gained with peace” – Pope Francis
He is a member of Britain’s legendary group ‘Beatles’. John Lennon and Paul McCartney are assessed “They wrote the most popular music in rock ‘ n ‘ roll history.” the Beatles received a MBE(Memberof the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire) in 1965. This is exceptional for a pop at the time. John Lennon returned a MBE medal. John Lennon was later to return this medal with the meaning of criticism in the Vietnam war.
This is again emerging as an issue. Why?
A draft letter sent to Lennon’s queen has been found. A connoisseur of the draft this letter is up to 60,000 pounds.
How?
The man found this draft in albums that he purchased at 10 pounds in 20 years ago. The price rose 60 times. HAHAHA many friends will go to Secondhand store.
It is full text.
To. Her Majesty The Queen
I am returning this MBE in protest against Britain’s involvement in the Nigeria-Biafra thing, against our support of America in Vietnam and against Cold Turkey Slipping down the charts.
John Lennon of Bag
Lennon’s values
We can say John Lennon is greater than the Beatles at some point. The reason why John Lennon is highly regarded is his strong values for social movement.
John Lennon’s most famous song is rightly the 「 imagine 」. This song is telling us to imagine a peaceful world without state and religion.
John Lennon think Gandhian nonviolence is the only way to transform society.
The Norwegian Nobel Committee has decided to award the Nobel Peace Prize for 2016 to Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos for his resolute efforts to bring the country’s more than 50-year-long civil war to an end.
This War has cost the lives of at least 220,000 Colombians and displaced close to six million people.
The Norwegian Nobel Committee said the award should also be seen as a tribute to the Colombian people who, despite great hardships and abuses, have not given up hope of a just peace, and to all the parties who have contributed to the peace process. This tribute is paid, not least, to the representatives of the countless victims of the civil war.(www.nobelprize.org)
In addition originally, He is a hardliner on the rebels. 2006 to 2009, while serving as defense minister He dealt a series of blows against the FARC guerrilla group, including the rescue of Fernando Araújo Perdomo, the death of FARC Secretariat member Raul Reyes in a 2 March 2008. So he attain eminence among their own people. However after he became president, He averted his eyes on how to end the civil war fundamentally. The BBC said “A Hawk turned into A Dove”
Colombian Civil War
Despite abundant underground resources such as iron ore, oil, natural gas, Colombia displaced millions of people who end up as refugees and is branded the biggest drug market. Why? Colombia take the long civil war.
Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) began as a peasant uprising in 1964. What was the will of the people who started FARC?
Anyway this War has cost the lives of at least 220,000 Colombians and displaced close to six million people.
220,000 Colombians were died
6,000,000 people were displaced
Colombian Civil War is one of the most prolonged civil war in recent history and It is only armed conflict in the Americas.
PEACE Is Started!!!
By the mediation of CubanPresident Raul Castro, Rodrigo Londono and Santos pledge to a peace agreement in 2016-09-26.
Pen used in their signature is made from real bullet shell used is civil war. In pen grip “The bullet record our past. Education is our future.” is written in Spanish.
After signing a peace agreement consisting of 297, President Santos give white dove badge to Londono. White dove badge is used for years on Santos’s clothes. The Londono locate it into the chest and smiled. The two shook handswith each other.
Why peace agreement is rejected?
Their rejection is because of detail contents of a peace treaty.
War crimes like drug trafficking and kidnapping of civilians in the FARC areexemptedfromobligation. And It ensures the legitimate political participation.
They who lost a family or whose family were taken hostage in FARC are against what is negotiated. Because It is too generous to rebels.
Yes! 49.78% No! 50.21%
But voterturnout was 37%. Dissenting votesis 57,000 more than vote yes.
President Santos said “We dedicate this award to people suffering from civil war and millions of victims” and “We go a little bit and We get very close to peace.” Santos held a national dialogue for the restoration of peace after the vote.
So, I find a similar situation.
Colombia civil war for 52 years220,000 died
Mindanao civil war for 40 years140,000 died
It is really similar. At the same time, I have many questions.
Why Mindanao’s peace agreement is not rejected? What is the difference? How did they use escape clauses?What is the difference?
Now MILF : Moro Islamic Liberation Front.
This 2nd Peace memorial is set up in the inside of MILF at 2016.It is amazing!!!!!!
1st Peace memorial is set up in 2014. Why? By mediation of HWPL, 40 years of Catholic and Muslim religious war was over.
After 2 years, 10,000 people are in line to greet the HWPL. I was deeply moved by the news.
“Lee, brought a powerful message that adds to the power to achieve peace that we hope and desire. It means HWPL and MILF are partner for peace.” – MILF chairman of Al-Hajj Murad Ebrahim
Whatistobedoneabout Colombia civil war?
I think they need more comfort. Wehavemanydifferentemotionssuchashappiness, anger, sadness, and annoyance.
So Respect and communication is needed. It looked like easy but It is really hard.
Finally I think Colombia need to learn ‘how HWPL achieve peace in Mindanao’.
Who are you supposed to root for? ‘Who will win the Nobel peace prize?’ is a name of article that The Guardian writes. The Guardian choose 5 nominees. Aren’t you curious? Let’s see list.
Syrian White Helmets
Angela Merkel
Pope Francis
Greek islanders
Juan Manuel Santos and Timochenko
Syrian White Helmets
There has been no more dangerous place in the world to be a first responder for most of that time. Their motto throughout Syria’s withering conflict has been “to save one life is to save all of humanity”
Angela Merkel
In his speech to the UN refugee summit in New York in September, Barack Obama thanked Merkel and the Germans for their efforts in dealing with the refugee crisis.
Pope Francis
There are many liberals who argue that the pope’s compassion for the poor and his environmental credentials are outweighed by his unbending support for traditional Catholic teaching on abortion and birth control.
Greek islanders
“What we saw was ordinary people, with no order from above, respecting tradition and acting out of sheer hospitality and solidarity. What they did shows the best of humanity in the simplest way.” Helena Smith
Fisherman Stratis Valiamos, 40 said, “People say ‘you’re a hero,’ but this isn’t heroism, it’s the normal thing to do”.
Juan Manuel Santos and Timochenko
The Colombian president, Juan Manuel Santos, and the leader of the Farc rebel group, Rodrigo Londoño, known as Timochenko, were considered leading contenders for the awards for signing a peace deal last month to end 52 years of war.
Who will win the Nobel Peace Prize 2016?
Nobel Peace Prize will be announced tomorrow. I’m throbbing 🙂
“Al” Gore is an American environmentalist and politician.
I first know him as a environmental activist. He is famous.
WHY?
Now you know? He deliver a talk to warn theworldaboutthedangersof globalwarming more than a thousand times!!!
The Nobel committee indicate that “Global warming is a serious risk that induce large scale migration and the fiercer competition for the planet’s resources to increase the risk of war and conflict “.
Gore and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Committee alert the world to these risks. So The Nobel committee give credit for Gore and Climate Change Committee.
Do you know ‘An Inconvenient Truth’?
It is a 2006 documentary film directed by Davis Guggenheim about former United States Vice President Al Gore‘s campaign. Italerts the public to an increasing “planetary emergency” due to global warming. The documentary was a critical and box-office success, winning two Academy Awards for Best Documentary Feature and Best Original Song.
Hmm.. I know Al gore is a controversialfigure. But I don’t want to say about this problem. I want to focus on “How hard he try to achieve PEACE“
The surprising thing is that Morepeople arebecominginterested inenvironmentalissues. So Al gore can win a Nobel Prize. Finally I would like to pay a standing ovation to his efforts. Beyondthat I cannotsaymore.
Judgment is your free. But Freedom carries responsibility.
“It takes time to connect the dots, I know that. But I also know that there can be a day of reckoning when you wish you had connected the dots more quickly.” – Al Gore
She is just only 17 years old in 2014. She is the youngest Nobel peace prize winner.
Why she is so influential?
On the afternoon of 9 October 2012, Yousafzai boarded her school bus in the northwest Pakistani district of Swat.
A gunman asked for her by name, then pointed a pistol at her and fired three shots. One bullet hit the left side of Yousafzai‘s forehead, travelled under her skin through the length of her face, and went into her shoulder.
DCIM100GOPRO
In the days immediately following the attack, she remained unconscious and in critical condition.(From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
But She recovered her health!!! It’s a miracle.
Her walk started at 11-12 years old. Yousafzai wrote a blog at that time to change the world.
The world was in an uproar over this assassination.
It is a opportunity for her to change the world.
The 2013, 2014 and 2015 issues of Time magazine featured Yousafzai as one of “The 100 Most Influential People in the World”
In July 2013, she spoke at the headquarters of the United Nations to call for worldwide access to education
In February 2014, she was nominated for the World Children’s Prize in Sweden.
Later in 2014, Yousafzai was announced as the co-recipient of the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize, along with Kailash Satyarthi(From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
For her “Nobel peace prizeis abeginning, notanend “
One little girl changes the world even now.
“One child, one teacher, one book, one pen can change the world.”
President Barack Obama speaks at Cairo University in Cairo, Thursday, June 4, 2009. In his speech, President Obama called for a ‘new beginning between the United States and Muslims’, declaring that ‘this cycle of suspicion and discord must end’. Official White House Photo by Chuck Kennedy
Field : arms control and disarmament, world organizing
The Nobel Committee lauded Obama for his “extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples”
He is 44th President of the United States of America.
Obama had emphasized dialogue and cooperation across national, ethnic, religious and political dividing lines.
Anyone can shout such things. But the reason why winners are great is that It is very difficult to do something more than words.
So I want to pay attention to his childhood story.
Do you know ‘Dreams From My Father‘?
It is his autobiography. He wrote it when the first black editor in chief of “Harvard Law Review”.
It is hard to summarize his youth. But his childhood is struggles as a young adult to reconcile social perceptions of his multiracial heritage.
The most important his concern was ‘who he was’.
I think there is a lot I can learn from him.
Now I know it’s up to me. 🙂
