Today I want to pay tributes to all Italian BlackWomen and all my friends for extending their prayers to the people of tribal areas, who are at the moment living in great terror and fear. The situation is still tense as the fighting is going in and around Bajaur Agency, tribal areas situated on Pak-Afghan border. I have been hearing the cries of innocent people mostly women and children who are being killed in this mad war on terrorism. My wife Fatima is contact with me on phone. Yesterday I have tried to move to Bajaur Agency, but I was unable to do so as all the roads leading to Bajaur Agency remained closed due to curfew in the areas. The Pakistani forces have launched an operation in Dir district. What is happening and who is doing this? No one knows. We are still needing your prayers. My wife and my children are in danger. I am danger. The whole peace is in danger. Thank you very much for your prayers.
According to newspaper report, At least 30 to 40 militants have been killed as security forces operation speed up in district Dir.
Commander FC Brigadier Amalzada Khatak while talking to Geo News said search operation is underway in the area and situation is completely under control.

It truly is important to use language that is beautiful and loving. Dr Emoto's work is amazing and demonstates so clearly the effects that words and sounds have on water. Thank you for sharing about this here.
With love, gratitude and blessings

We all have to look at our language in use and to become cosciente about it's use! Yes,Antonia, I know Dr. Masaru Emoto and the effect of language on the water!
The sound is so important in creativity...
We need to come back to look the originin of every word, to contact the real energy and meaning of every word and to choose peaceful and thrue word!
We have to exercise us and to begin to use a real peaceful language!

I am very happy to read about the reflection on language. Since I became aware of the vibration single words have ( Dr. Masaru Emoto !!!) I started to watch MY language and that of the media. It can be quite shocking !

CONVOCATORIA DE MUJERES DE NEGRO DE MADRID
26 AVRIL 2009 Plaza Mayor a la 12 de la tarda

A reflection on language
We, the Mujeres de Negro (Spanish Black Women), feminists, pacifists,
antimilitaristic, we believe that it is very important reflect on language in our activism.
Our language is not neutral: it is influenced by our personal environment, historical, cultural and social and influences in turn on these environments.

We analyze and put into question the language that because we received was a mirror of patriarchal structures that for centuries have ignored us
women, we were nominated, or did so on the basis of their interests and intentions.
We know and feel that we do not include us, and that not all we are ALL.
If we have long been without problems, teachers, subordinate, boss, employees, and we can also be medical, musicians, President, Judges ...

We do not want to be women combatants or women who take the weapons, nor women "de bandera"(= of flag). We are activists, not militants. We are people working for peace, not the rest of the warrior. We are attentive to language bellicose as what you use in football, in other forms of pastime, and even in some festivals and traditions popular, where you exalt violence and confrontation. There seem an example of lack of respect and democratic aggression and the insults used by so many s Political / and in their debates, even in Parliament.

About changing the language? Who invents new words? The Academy? Intellectuals? I / the poets? Women of home? Whoever speaks, everybody talking and do it.
All languages change and evolve continuously and many reasons, among them the new historical and social.
The Royal Academy accepts new words in his Dictionary, and when we open the computer, sunk by seismo an avalanche of English terms, which are imposed on rapid change.
Sure the Academy and the more conservative sectors of society and continue to show male violence and a contempt garbled towards creation, analysis and
proposals of feminism and pacifism. Its main argument is the ridicule insults.
Femminicidio (killed women), Sorolla (sisterhood), nonviolence, lesbofobia (=against lesbiam woman) not are still in the dictionary, but we say these words.
Do not believe the lie that the gender men include women, as we do not accept that armies are peacekeepers.

We, the Mujeres de Negro, we want to put the disorder patriarchal discourse with our language subjective♀ subversive ♀ nonviolent ♀ inclusive ♀ plural ♀ creative 
- we want to banish the terms offensive and discriminate against people for their gender, race, origin or sexual option. We do not want the politically correct, but a language that innovator not reproduce the prejudices of all time;
- asking the Administration to promote be the first to use a non-sexist language, not that this issue would be considered low important;
- want to learn how to appoint a world without violence, without wars and militarism.
