Study War No More...
All conflict is not war related. There is a lifestyle that promotes a holistic nonviolent approach to every aspect of life relative to peace. The Institute for a New Humanity (INH) understands that peace is not the absence of conflict but more so our ability to handle conflict peaceably. The fundamental principles of being your brother's keeper and morality have been supplanted with greed and selfishness. Thus the manifestation of these polarizing behaviors have plunged humanity into a state of endless conflict. Inspired historical figures have sought the path of peace only to discover that the world was not ready for them. In reality, humanity has reached a breaking point where peace is the only option to secure the future. Hence, INH has dedicated itself to ending the assault on peace via adoption of universal justice.
These precepts were espoused by the late Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and then embodied in the Village of Peace established by his excellency Ben Ammi Ben Israel in Dimona Israel
The Paradox
An earnest review of the Twentieth Century reveals a stunning paradox; with internet, such inventions as the lightbulb, airplane, television, radio and internet this past century was by far the most creative in human history...simultaneously the most destructive. While we were astounded by every marvelous new invention created, we found ourselves simultaneously awestruck by man's innovative ability to destroy at previously unforeseen levels and with unimaginable ferocity.
Consider the following disturbing scientific developments:
- War reached an unprecedented scale and level of sophistication; in the Second World War alone, approximately 57 million people died, mainly due to massive improvements in weaponry.
- Notwithstanding phenomenal scientific • and medical advances, new "lifestyle" killers arose such as cancer, high blood pressure and strokes, that continue to kill in epidemic proportions.
- The richest 10% of people owned 85% of global assets in the year 2000. The bottom half of the world's population owned barely 1% of global wealth. The three richest people in the world have assets in the billions while over two billion people earn less than a dollar a day.
- Expanding industrialization enabled corporations to reap untold profits from industries that wantonly pollute the air, land and water, contributing to the deaths of millions annually.
- Agribusiness mastered the ability to produce and supply food products to global markets by land, sea and air, yet approximately 20 million people continue to die annually of starvation and malnutrition.

The Power of Non-Violence
The power and beauty of the philosophy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr is only partially identifiable through his speeches, writings and work. At the core of his mission is the God-inspired dream of the Beloved Community that he preached and taught, prayed and toiled for, sacrificed and ultimately gave his life for. Reflection upon the core message of Dr. King demands a deep, resounding introspection into our own values and beliefs and the world that produced them. Dr. King called for a true revolution of values - a principled, spirit driven way of relating to the value of people over things. His was a call to identify and recognize the sound of the pain and suffering of every man, woman and child as our own.
