"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 ..."

Captured Ugandan rebel chief to face charges at ICC

Ugandan Lord's Resistance Army chief Dominic Ongwen will be transferred to the International Criminal Court, Washington has confirmed. Ongwen was seized by US forces in the Central African Republic last week.

Ongwen, who was in the custody of US special forces after surrendering last week, will be turned over to the African Union Regional Task Force and then transferred to the Hague, State Department deputy spokeswoman Marie Harf announced Tuesday.

"The United States understands that the governments of Central African Republic and Uganda have consulted and are in agreement that Ongwen will be transferred to ICC to face justice for his alleged crimes," Harf said.

Ongwen will face charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity.

The Lord's Resistance Army has been blamed for the slaughter of over 100,000 people and the kidnapping of more than 60,000 children during a campaign across five central African nations that went on for over three decades.

A former child soldier himself, Ongwen was a senior aide to LRA leader and warlord Joseph Kony. A Pentagon spokesman had earlier said Ongwen had been turned over to US forces by a "third party."

The Ugandan army said it had been decided that Ongwen would be sent to the ICC to face charges, ending speculation that Kampala might seek to put him on trial in its own court.
