Many, many groups are already praying and doing meditations for peace. I agree with peels that a direct call for help might be in order here. It can't hurt to try! If our Confederation friends decide that direct involvement is an infringement of free will to those who aren't calling, then no harm done. The call won't have been wasted because, in that case, they will surely help us indirectly.
But what if they are standing by, ready to assist, if enough people called? Why not try? I think the key is that we need to be careful to not fall into the "Lord please save me" trap, like those awaiting the return of Jesus, or spaceships to rescue them.
The Law of One is about the resolution of paradoxes. It may seem paradoxical to simultaneously take responsibility for our own karmic mess, and call for help...It may seem paradoxical to call for help, while not expecting to be 'rescued.'
I think it is possible to call for help, without a "I'm a victim please rescue me" mentality. If we call for help with an attitude of, Hey this has gone far enough. Let's all work together...that means all of us on Earth as well as our Confederation friends....to end this insanity" then the call might be seen not as a shirking of responsibility, but of a unifying for a common cause.
