Hello my friends!

""I wish children didn't die. I wish they would be temporarily elevated to the skies until the war ends. Then they would return home safe, and when their parents would ask them: "where were you?", they would say: "we were playing in the clouds".

Palestinian writer and politician Ghassan Kanafani

I've always been fascinated by the fact that many people around the world seem to become more bitterly inflamed over the Palestinian-Israeli conflict than they do over most domestic issue of their own nation, or any other foreign issue around the world (including others that are deeply tragic). This enduring conflict must have some profound symbolic significance.

Once the Israeli incursion into Gaza ends there will presumably be some steps toward diplomacy. Biden cannot run the country, run for reelection and oversee a new Mideast peace process. He should appoint a pair of high-level envoys for the post: Bill and Hillary Clinton. Dispatching the Clintons would show Biden’s commitment to a resolution, offer the former first couple a final mission that could be the capstone of their public lives and help channel their talents in more constructive ways than letting them chew over polling data and rage about Trump.

Israeli airstrike kills journalists – media

Israeli airstrike kills journalists – media https://www.rt.com/news/606442-israel-lebanon-strike-journalists/

Nothing new... Israeli murder 3 journalists in Cold Blood, in Lebanon.

Israeli War Crimes, everyday, has sanitized us all, watching war crimes..one after another.. everyday for over a year. So today, many decent people just put down their heads in total shame.. because all that has shown.. just how powerless we are in the face of total Evil.. Washington and Israel are the Evil that we must endure and finally defeat.

But we need big the Superpowers, The Russian Federation and China, and all the allied countries that side with these two. And there are many in Africa, Asia, Latin America...just waiting for the Russian Federation and the People's Republic of China..to say: GO!!!

If we don't act against this total Evil...we are all next .. as these gangsters will be breaking down your own front door.. irrespective of where you live..west, east, south, north.

That's why we, the people of the world, must unite now.. AND FIGHT BACK WITH THE SAME GUNNING FORCE THAT EVIL USES.

Just like the Bolsheviks did.

Republicans' Stand Regarding Palestinians

That doesn't seem to follow the bible's teaching. Pretty harsh & uncaring.

U.S. College Protests; Fareed Zakaria Gets Too Clever!

Fareed, I normally agree with most of your views. Here, however, you’re completely off the mark mate. This is much more than a mere social issue; it’s a valid, relevant and critical issue that’s being ignored and undermined by political wrangling that is costing real lives day-in-day-out. To frame it as a social/community issue is a disservice to the cause and frankly with all due respect,…

From the river to the sea, #Palestine will be free

"Dreams of Tomorrow" by legendary Palestinian painter Ismail Shammout. It is considered one of his last works.

It features the corpse of a Palestinian woman, in the shape of the map of Palestine, with red needlework on her dress representing the Dome of the Rock in #Jerusalem and spelling the words "love, good, patience, tomorrow…" and names of Palestinian cities "#Nablus, #Jaffa, #Jerusalem, #Nazareth…"

There are certain parties in the Middle East who have to finally decide whether they love their own people more than they hate Israel.
