How many centuries of hardship had I been through
Only after death, obsession of life drops off like a leaf
With no relationship and with no heart,
I stand ashen, formless
Time became irrelevant
And someday the formlessness will disintegrate like dirt
And when I disappear from the world's memory,
Only then will I rise as intractable wind and become free?

'...Through its information resources, IS urged its followers to commit terrorist acts in places where they lived. This caused an upsurge in violence in Europe: a wave of terror swept through France, Belgium, Germany, the UK, and other countries. In Russia, the North Caucasus became a point of tension....'

Islam is the most happening religion on Earth in 2024 AD whether we want to admit it or not that is as undeniable as Christian God that cannot be wiped off like dust that piles back up hanging around at the empty Church pews -- its priests as ineffective as medicine that has expired from its shelf-life...

Being the youngest religion may have certain advanced features: it is the only religion that does not 'worship' 'graven image':

Not only that, Muslim region may be the wealthiest of all the religious regions if we really looked at it from that perspective -- due to its natural resources: Oil...

Islam has noble ideal called 'Zakat':

However, Muslims are also victims of human nature... (from here no paragraph separation...)
Buddhism does not qualify as a religion if we are to designate the existence of God as prerequisite for a religion to be... Nonetheless, Buddhism teaches humans to discover their TRUE NATURE -- which is beastly, domineering and freakishly selfish... Humans cannot escape from this triple human condition -- even if they go in and out of the House of God regularly -- that is the problem...
The triple nature of God (whose image, 'we', thus Humans = God) can be traced back to the age-old Hinduism's three-headed God: The Creator, the Preserver and the Destroyer... We can also trace the lofty status of a 'Teacher' in India -- 'Guru' in Hinduism: Mukdananda was willing to die if his Guru, Yogananda, so demanded: GoTo FB_Page: [Salman Rushdie] (born in India) -- you will find information about Yogananda there... The concept of 'COMPLETE SUBMISSION' also migrated to Islamdom...

While Muslim governments don't spend money rehabilitating the Losers of the Society (human condition: Selfishness), their Priests/Teachers indoctrinate them to channel their anger and frustration to play politics -- via 'terrorism' -- against foreign governments...
If they rebel against their own government, they will get their heads chopped off...
There is a saying that has become fashionable in America:
'If you can't beat 'em, join 'em' -- which Christian Priests adopted faithfully...
https://freakonomics.com/2009/11/quotes-uncovered-who-first-said-if-you-cant-beat-em/#:~:text=The%20earliest%20citation%20given%2C%20in,'s%20%E2%80%9Cfavorite%20sayings.%E2%80%9D
Now we get into the TRUE EVIL:
The West -- to bypass the cumbersome route of 'correcting' the Muslim terrorism -- chose to benefit from them by re-routing the terrorism (with MONEY) to their own political game...
In other words, while Islam gave birth to terrorism, the West fertilized them and the combination of both has become a CANCER that rots Earth as a whole...
So, while Christian Priests busy themselves with dusting their empty pews and while Muslim Priests brainwash their adherents to embrace bomb as their TRUE GOD, Buddhist Priests preach to become one with 'emptiness'...
Is Earth having CRISIS?
Well, Chinese character CRISIS supposedly also mean OPPORTUNITY...

What 'opportunity' can we knead out of current Earth's 'crisis'?
We could correct our 'collective ill' by adopting Black_Hawk's teaching: 'SHARE WHAT COMES FROM THE EARTH' which should apply to all natural resources...
However, we could start our remedial experiment with [Crimea] question:

I hereby propose we make AI with 'graven image' from 'Black_Hawk' and make that Robot the next [American President]...
.
Why 'graven image'?
If we don't forgive our blemishes, who will?
.
As bad as [Party Politics] is [Personality Politics]...
.
One person (the Chosen One) cannot come up with 'Correct Solution' for every problem -- humanly not possible...
.
Therefore, regardless the Party one belongs to, each solution (the best option) per problem should be broadcast via the borrowed mouth of the [Robot President] -- the Best President...
.
There is another reason for opting [Robot President]:
Environmental concern:
The so-called 'SUMMITS' require the world leaders flying to a specific location from all over the world every occasion -- polluting the air that cannot afford the smog generated from the airplane:
Utmost irresponsible act...
.
Besides, when the world leaders gather they shake hands -- believing physical contact builds 'special personal relationship'...
Nothing could be truer than such ill-gotten notion...
.
As the diverse problems come up, they are bound to find each other at the opposite spectrum...
When the necessity pushes them to argue, the breaking of the 'special bond' that had formed when they shook hand shape-change into feeling of 'betrayal' if not worse...
.
Human beings are emotional animals, the feeling of 'betrayal' could transpire into crime -- easily...
.
Never having met and never having shook someone's hand is much 'safer' for both ends:
IMHO
