DONA NOBIS PACEM - GRANT US PEACE

Since I started blogging in 2006, I participated in this peace movement created by Mimi Lenox. (Peace blog here) Each year there are more and more participants. People cry out for peace. But nobody listens and I get the impression that there is less and less peace in the world. And for what ? For business, for petrol and religion in the name of God /Allah (God in arabic) I am sure that whatever religion you belong too or not, all these wars are certainly not in the name of God, but rather an insult to God/Allah.

Weekend report below.

DONA NOBIS PACEM - BLOG FOR PEACE

Dona Nobis Pacem means "Grant us Peace" in Latin.

Wars in the name of Religion have always been a good excuse for men to distroy each other ! No matter to whatever religion they belong ! They asked God in French, German, English, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian etc to let them win the war and fought against each other ! Poor God / Allah  ! He must be quiet confused !

Not all people know that Allah is the word for God in Arabic, the word means simply "the God." It is used mainly by Muslims, Arab Christians, and often, albeit not exclusively, by Arabic-speakers, Indonesian, Malaysian and Maltese Christians, Mizrahi Jews and Sikhs. (source : Wikipedia)

Religion wars started already with the Crusades, in 11th, 12th, and 13th-century religiously sanctioned military campaigns waged by much of Christian Europe against Muslim Persia and Middle East.

List of major religious wars

The figures below include the deaths of civilians from diseases, famine, etc., as well as deaths of soldiers in battle and possible massacres and genocide.
