Ease off Iraq; maintain Israeli peace process

Take military action against Iraq only as part of an international effort.
End the economic embargo against Iraq.
Continue to lead the peace process between Israel and the Palestine Authority.
Hagelin would “establish a ‘prevention wing’ within the military-a group whose primary purpose would be to prevent the outbreak of war and to preserve and strengthen national and international peace.”

Ground troops out of Kosovo

The US should not maintain ground troops in the Kosovo province.
Hagelin would “establish peace-creating groups in key areas of the world to help dissolve social stress and prevent the outbreak of armed hostility and war.”

“Coherence-creation” via meditation would reduce stress

We propose the immediate deployment in Yugoslavia of a “coherence-creating” group--approximately 7000 experts in Transcendental Meditation. Such a group would reduce stress and tension in the Kosovo region and create a coherent and harmonious environment throughout Yugoslavia that would compel Milosevic to adopt a peaceful solution. This “coherence-creating” strategy has been successfully employed many times to reduce international conflict, crime, and violence. Source: Announcement in The Washington Post , Apr 7, 1999
