"About seventy years ago, World War Ⅱ was over, but seventy years later, people still kill each other in civil wars in some countries. Seventy years later, great nations still fight each other in some places in order to take the initiative in the world, not making a effort together to bring them to an end. Seventy years later, we are still spending a lot of money on war expenditures.
Now is the time to make a effort to bring civil wars to an end. Now is the time that great nations should deal with difficult problems together without referring to their self‐interests. Now is the time to spend a lot of money promoting our peace and happiness.
We can never be satisfied as long as there are wars in the world. We can never be satisfied as long as we are killing each other. We can never be satisfied as long as enormous amounts of money is being spent on war expenditures.
I have a dream that one day there will be no war in the world. I have a dream that one day we all will get along without hating each other. I have a dream that one day tons of money will not be spent on war expenditures, but rather on our peace and happiness.
Let this thought spread around you. Let this thought spread from where you live. Let this thought spread from you to the rest of the world.
When this happens, and when we allow this thought, the world will undoubtedly be a better place to live."
If Martin Luther king Jr were alive now, he might say it this way.

Hello, Soheila. What dream do you have?
I have a dream ...
Hi, Dara. Thank you for your comment. I agree with you. I hear that Russia is trying new weapons in Syria. They seem to be using Syria as a laboratory for their new weapons. It is terrible.
Kunichiea Tam, as long as there is a war we will never taste peace or tranquility. The inventors of weapons want to sell their products. From where shall they get their incomes, or let me say, how can they make their companies and their fortunes? Martin wanted the truth to come to anyone. Thanks Tam for sharing.
Hello, Rose. Thank you for sharing your great thought. I agree with you.
Every single word is just the truth!!! Bravo!!!
People should stop prejudice, envy, arguing and hate. People should share what our earth gives us. Lack of water and food will be a big challenge for the whole mankind in the future...we should care for and try to find solutions for those problems. THAT should be a common task and duty. There is enough to do for everyone.
We should protect our earth and all the creatures on it, and not destroy ourselves.
The majority of humans doesn't want wars. No one wants to die before his time is over by his age...and it isn' in our human roots to kill someone.
Unfortunately, there are rulers and businessmen who earn with wars. They don't have any interests in peace. As long as they use the earth as a testing ground for their weapons and war equipment and the people incite against each other, as long wars never will stop.
Violence generated new violence, hatred new hatred. It's like a circle, no one knows the exit.
Wars are like chains of prisons. They must be broken to free and to save the mankind.
