This isn't a prediction - but I just thought it important to show news when good things happen. If my post isn't appropriate - wrong section - let me know - feel free to move - delete.

"Stockholm is our city, a city we are proud of, where we like to be. Fear shall not reign. Terror cannot win," Stockholm mayor Karin Wanngard said.
"Instead, we shall think of the kindness and openness that characterises our city. That is what we're going to build on," she said, praising a city "characterised by openness and tolerance".
"And if we do that, then terrorism will have lost."
The opening of minds.
Their fearlessness is inspiring!
Thanks for the post!
As for whether this post is appropriate for the Category Positive Predictions, yes, it is, in fact I was going to post something in this section on the Swedish reaction to terrorism in Stockholm. So thank-you! The Swedish reaction is where we'd like our world to be going, and where I believe we will be going when this reign of darkness is over. A 12th century Tibetan prophecy said that in the future, two barbaric powers would battle each other and send the world towards self destruction. It the world could be saved, it would be by what they called the bodhisattvas, which means heart warriors. These would consist of millions of people who would use love, not war or hate or vengeance to save the world. A friend who lives just outside of Stockholm told me today that the Swedish display of love and flowers was breathtaking. The people had laid flowers all over the city, including on top and inside police cars.
I feel there are two good things that happened in the US last week. One: Bill OReilly was fired from Fox News. His negative energy is a type that I see in talk radio where essentially anger, self righteousness is repeated so much, it brainwashes his viewers and this gave him a sense of power and infallibiolity- he could hardly contain it and he expressed this energy in his predation of women. Another is that Coulter was stopped from speaking at Berkeley. Although I favor free speech, I feel her lecture would be used to incite and could have occasioned another protest that would have been infiltrated and served as a pretense for a federal crackdown, perhaps also involving ICE agents detaining non-white people. She is a bomb thrower and truly has nothing of value to add to the conversation as her entire persona is fabricated and designed to stir controversy to sell her books.
Also the truth about a lie irt the USS Vinson armada not actually headed toward Korea was made public. I do feel bad for the ship because her crew's deployment was then extended another month.

He is in the US Navy, currently deployed. Know that this energy is present there too. Here is an excerpt which is what made me think of it:
My son was on liberty in port yesterday and luckily I was able to spend time chatting with him. I will share some of what he said (conversation-- I took my comments out):
