Hamas / Fatah at war: Humanitarian Crisis: Amnesty international: Gaza War 2009
Civil War in Palestine - Peace in Israel
It seems that the war between Israel and Palestine has taken a new turn. According to latest reports, Civil War might just be around the corner, which hopefully might provide some respite for Israel.
Hamas and Fatah forces engaged in armed clashes again on Monday as an explosive device was detonated in the northern Gaza strip, next to the residence of a Fatah operative, though no one was injured, Israel Radio reported.
Clashes were renewed on Sunday, when Hamas activists shot a Palestinian Preventative Security Service officer in Gaza, and a Hamas operative was shot and seriously wounded by Fatah operatives.
PALESTINIAN police today fought gunbattles in Gaza City with a rival Hamas-led security force set up by the Islamist government in defiance of President Mahmoud Abbas.
I am always careful when referring to Islamic Terrorism, to call it 'Politically motivated fundamentalist Islamic Terrorism'.
I do this for a reason, because the terrorism is not truly a religious terrorism, and nor does it reflect the majority attitudes of Islamic people. It is in fact, a political war. Those anti-semitic idiot PC guilt ridden middle class bleeding hearts who constantly blame Israel and the USA for Islamic Terrorism, should start connecting with reality and take note. The violence between Palestine and Israel is not the popular uprising of a down trodden people, but a violence instigated by politically driven war mongers who care not a whit for their people's condition or situation.
If the leadership factions in Palestine cared at all for 'their people' and for Islam, they would be working together to better the life conditions of the people. Instead, because of Hamas' anti-semitic (and anti USA) lust for power, the Palestinian factions have begun to turn on each other. Nothing makes it clearer than that the prime motivation is one of 'power'.
We have been led astray by irresponsible journalism and a plethora of political agendas, into believing that 'we' are to blame for the violence of the poor and downtrodden. Nothing could be further from the truth. As statistics show, more Muslims have been killed by Muslims in their quest for power, than any of us have been killed by Muslims. Those seeking power care naught for human life, Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Palestinian, Iraqi, Israeli or American.
It's time we stopped listening to those terrorists in our own midst, whose desire is to destroy our own cultures, as they seek the same kind of power that Hamas and their kin seek.
Well as everyone who reads the news knows, Hamas is still in control of Gaza, the people are suffering while blaming Israel. Egypt has it's own problems with Gazan residents breaking through the border fence and injuring Egyptian security forces. Egypt says it will not tolerate this behaviour and wants Israel to take over the border crossings again.
Egypt looking for four terrorists Egyptian security forces were looking for four Palestinians on Saturday who slipped into the country from the Gaza Strip the previous day and were suspected of planning suicide attacks against resorts in the Sinai Peninsula, a local security official said.
The search follows the arrests of 15 Palestinians over the past few days who were caught carrying weapons and explosives in the town of el-Arish, located some 35 kilometers from the border, and other remote parts of the Sinai desert.
The border breach came several days after Israel had imposed a complete blockade on Gaza, with Egyptian backing, in response to a rocket barrage from Gaza on the western Negev.
Re: Fort Hood Massacre I invite readers to think about the educators of our "politically correct" or non-judgmental media, because the core of the problem consists not in cowardly or obfuscating journalists but rather the universities that educated them.
We boast of these universities, even though they produce so many moral idiots. I mean men and women stultified by the academic doctrine of moral or cultural relativism. Because it is this doctrine that prompts "politically correct" fools to hire Muslims to serve on US military bases.
The social engineering of society, to accommodate 'ideological agendas' which sound so great, usually fall victim to 'The Law of Unintended Consequences'.
But when the 'rights' of ideologues, social engineers and political activists start impinging on our personal and traditional identity; which is to say, 'our national culture', then it is time to sit back and say 'enough!
We really do need to pay more attention to how our own minds operate, and how we are both consciously and subconsciously effected by Media Propaganda.
It's very easy to 'take sides' in an issue, and it is very easy to be persuaded of a cause, but at the end of the day, unless it is our specific purpose to blind ourselves to the truth, it is encumbent upon us to do our best to look at every situation from as many persepectives as possible...to make sure that we are not 'obsessive and compulsive' in our political and social judgements.
Is it possible that we and our kids are living in a state of 'stupor', controlled by external forces that seek to mould us to their wills? Does the media and do the Universities engineer what we think? Do they try to cast a spell over our minds and our thoughts?
Humankind (I'm afraid to write 'mankind') loves and admires charasmatic speakers and leaders, and naturally we expect students to 'look up to' their teachers. What happens when those leaders and teachers are not worthy of honour, or are teaching that which is contrary to our own (family/ social/ cultural or traditional) culture?
Political Correctness is ultimately a game where the one who is speaking is free to speak, and anyone who speaks against him/her is in the wrong, unless of course what you are saying, has the support of the majority of the 'socio-political' elites. In truth, Free Speech is a Myth
