I Like Truth, and Actions


This picture is simple. It was taken by coincident by my friend named Muhammad Ibrahim during a rally for Palestine in UK. A very powerful statement with a background to match. I find it a great shot, and Reuters think so too. This picture was featured in Reuters website. That is quite a satisfaction huh for the photographer :) Congrats Momad!

Heard this somewhere, related to the current Palestine massacre (it is a massacre, Dr Finkelstein said it), some people said this "Israel have the right to defend itself; so the bombing is unavoidable and it is a pursuit of self-defense".

But we ask them back, "So, Palestinians have the right to die?". I believe we have an answer to that question. The solution to the occupation was long proposed by PLO back in the 70s - if I'm not mistaken - but Israel government was too stubborn to accept it, and allow this issue to prolong for all we know.

The world is against this occupation, only America and Israel is pro of it. Lets just hope Obama who promises change, hope bla bla bla in his campaign will keep his words on that and provide a better world for the Palestinians. The good thing is, the whole world is now aware of the situation in Gaza and I know they are with us. Let us all hold on to what we know is true. "Truth alone will endure, all the rest will be swept away before the tide of time." (Mahatma Gandhi)

Yes, it is our time to spread out out little voices because they all count. And that is why I'm writing this to you.

now the army which invaded Gaza are given law protection from their country... Ini laa keadilan kat dunia nih..

Kalau dunia masih tak bertindak kat negara jahanam tuh.. memang bodoh laa diorang ni semua.

I just hope people won't forget about this. Like every other events in this world. People will just forget.
