Canon
Naysayers strain at gnats and swallow camels to ignore the simplest truths. "Every man, and every body of men on earth possesses the right of self-government. They receive it with their being from the hand of nature." Thus an official United States Government document: a 1790 Opinion by its very first Secretary of State, one Thomas Jefferson.

Let the peoples of Earth decide whether Jefferson was right - or Putin.

Dekanawida, the Buddha, Mozi, Krsna, Muhammad, Moses - among others - all agree charity and compassion rule. Another said: "Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me." Let the peoples of Earth decide whether Christ and the others were right - or Putin.

How else then even begin unlocking the kingdom of heaven in our hearts?

Muscovy, precious Rus' Velikaya! Irreplaceable millions among you struggled for a planet without exploitation, want, or ignorance anywhere; that Stalin crashed in a ditch does nothing to tarnish their heroism - or the basic principles they fought and died for. In 1915, a great Great Russian, V.I. Lenin, proposed "A United States of the World." And indeed: how many more millions anywhere need to die in wars about - what?

Let the peoples of Earth decide whether Lenin was right - or Putin.

Leninism - promise of freedom, democracy and peace for the whole planet - is in you yet, Rossiya. Let Stalinism and Putinism rot; start again from first principles and build firmer foundations this time. Help finish the job your forebears started and do the world proud.

Communion
Peoples of Earth, sing of Kyiv a new song. Sing the lives and dignity of her children - and of all humankind's. Sing the least among us anywhere and everywhere self-government's God-given right.

Sing Kyiv Capital of the United States of the World, with all due haste.

Then give the glory Above; and put away childish things: put away hatred among nations, peoples, cultures, languages, religions, skin colors, gender identities, wealth differences, political opinions, and whatever. Put away hatred altogether from your hearts and live through love. Is it not so written?
