"If an Arab and a Jew can look at one another and see the Akashic lineage and see the one family, there is hope. If they can see that their differences no longer require that they kill one another, then there is a beginning of a change in history. And that's what is happening now. All of humanity, no matter what the spiritual belief, has been guilty of falling into the historic trap of separating instead of unifying. Now it's starting to change. There's a shift happening."


“ … Here is another one. A change in what Human nature will allow for government. "Careful, Kryon, don't talk about politics. You'll get in trouble." I won't get in trouble. I'm going to tell you to watch for leadership that cares about you. "You mean politics is going to change?" It already has. It's beginning. Watch for it. You're going to see a total phase-out of old energy dictatorships eventually. The potential is that you're going to see that before 2013.

They're going to fall over, you know, because the energy of the population will not sustain an old energy leader ..."

Official: Series of blasts kill 20 in Tanzania

CNN News, By Faith Karimi, February 17, 2011

Shock waves could be felt in neighborhoods more than six miles
away from the airport in Dar es Salaam on Wednesday night
.

STORY HIGHLIGHTS
  • Official says she "does not think" the explosions are terror related
  • Two years ago, blasts at a nearby arms depot left 29 dead
  • About 200 others are wounded in the blasts at an army base
  • The chain of explosions lights up the night sky late Wednesday

(CNN) -- A series of fiery blasts killed 20 people and injured dozens more at a military camp in Tanzania, authorities said early Thursday.

At least 184 others were wounded in the blasts at an army base in the main city of Dar es Salaam, said Nyancheghe Nanai, assistant director of disaster management.

Several arms and ammunition depots at the Gongola Mboto army base were destroyed, authorities said.

Residents panicked as the chain of explosions overnight Wednesday sent orange plumes into the sky. The explosions rattled neighborhoods, leveled nearby homes and forced the closure of the main international airport.

RELATED TOPICS

An evacuation center for the displaced has been set up at a nearby stadium, according to Nanai.

Nanai declined to discuss the cause of the blasts, but said she "does not think" they are terror-related.

"That's not my place to speculate, I'm not an expert on that, they (military) will address it when they are ready," she said.

Two years ago, blasts at a nearby arms depot left 29 dead from rocket and artillery fire, Nanai said.

Those blasts were not terror-related, she said.
