For anyone in the USA(or worldwide)who cares about children(and there must be MILIONS),and INNOCENTS dying by political strategy or delibarate neglect,this short film,by a very 'raw-data', statistic-based,and WONDERFULLY brave American journalist is worth watching.
Listen very carefully to the "off the chart" statistics,and think about it HUMAN TERMS! What if these were YOUR(anyones)children?
Tell me,which would you rather have your child face?
A stone from a sling or a live M-16 bullet?
These Palestinians were merely passing by OR rightfully trying to protect their OWN HISTORICAL land.
You would have to see at least NINE more dead Palestinian children,BEFORE you see ONE dead Isreali child.That's the present ration,10 to 1,A LEAST !!
Of course,No children SHOULD be dying,from either side.
Shame on them all!
Again! Another Israeli version of David and Goliath.
A ten year old Palestinian boy with a stone against an Israeli occupier WITH LIVE AMMO!
Guess who gets KILLED,again?
Oh,yes! Olmert and LIVNI,your boys(and girls)ARE SO IMPRESSIVELY 'MACHO'!
Real 'role-models',that I must remind MY kids,and grandkids,NOT TO IMITATE!
"Woe",Olmert?
Kuntar may well be an "animal" but....
Wo!Wo! You can hold it RIGHT THERE cowboy!
Don't you git' too high and mighty with the world!
Have you taken a look at 'yerself'and your Governmental policies of 'humanity' and "democracy" lately man?
They are about as 'pretty' as OUR Governmental policies under the Bush regime,right now. And that 'aint' bragging!
It's not a 'pretty' refection OR image.
This is part of an article on AlJazeera/English web.
"Israeli condemnation
Ehud Olmert, Israel's prime minister, on Thursday labelled Kuntar an "animal" for the crimes he was convicted of carrying out.
"Woe betide the people who celebrate the release of a beastly man who bludgeoned the skull of a four-year-old toddler," he said in a statement.
But Mohamed al-Sayed Said from the Al-Ahram Centre for Strategic Studies in Cairo, said Olmert "should not take the moral high ground" with respect to what he sees as the "destructive effect" of the 2006 war.
"I don't think Olmert has any right to declare moral victory. While he may call Kuntar an animal, the war that he launched in 2006 resulted in the deaths of over 1,000 people," he told Al Jazeera."
You can STOP right there Monsieur 'Old-MART'!
When Olmert says,"woe betide the people....",DOES he realise that he is also addressing his own IOF/security forces too? Lebanese children? Yes!
But,does he CONVENIENTLY forget TOO, or EXPECT US to forget, that they also have a regular(daily or weekly)habit of filling Palestinian morgue refrigerators(if they are working ON POWER) with bludgeoned skulls,and bodies of "four year old"..Palestinian..."toddlers"?
Or ANY OTHER age,for that matter,take your pick HERR Ehud,they range from prematures,neonates,"toddlers",adolescents,teens UPWARDS!
Pick an age! Any age!
Well,he SHOULDN'T be able to forget,as any NORMAL person with a sane head,clean soul and GOOD conscience would NOT,because there are THOUSANDS of photos of the same children of God,on MANY websites for his 'LEISURELY PERUSAL'.
Thousands of Palestinian parents left with holes in their hearts as they mourn THEIR dead children.
Brothers and sisters mourn their siblings loss.
God Bless their TINY INNOCENT little souls!
Oh,and LEST WE FORGET,there are the maimed,injured,amputees,still bearing witness.
But Ehud,that's just routine ethnic cleansing to you,right?
Part of the job,for which YOU get paid,HANDSOMELY,right?
Not to mention the fact that for every ONE Israeli child killed,there are,(if the statistics haven't changed),TEN TO FIFTEEN Palestinian children MURDERED TOO!
I guess that's 'par' for the Israeli Zionist 'course',right?
That trendy phrase everyone likes nowadays,"Checks and Balances"(maybe NOT SO "BALANCED") ?
By his very words,and daily statistics of Israeli abuse of Palestinians, HERR OLMERT is hereby labelling his OWN people as child-murderers,and "ANIMALS"!
What? You may ask. Is that a CONFESSION of the soul,at last,Olmert?
Are you being 'man' enough,now,to admit what we ALREADY know?
That the Nazi Holocaust victims have become the NEW(60 years old)Holocaust perpetrators?
Or am I just seeing,what I ABHOR most here?
Blatant MURDER,HYPOCRISY,DENIAL and DOUBLE-STANDARDS yet again,'OLD-MART'!
If you are going to stand,and speak,on moral 'high-ground' Herr Olmert,you had better make sure,beforehand,that the State of Israels human,moral,ethical,spiritual 'resume' is clean.
Otherwise don't waste our time and intelligence!
