Somewhere someone died and i just wanted to make him alive again, make him real, because tomorrow no one might remember him and of the fate that awaits many like him.
so disrespectful to our dignity. to think we are all from the same race aswell... this has really upset me.
Footage like that can be seen on some of the news feeds that go by satellite. The regular news networks in the U.S. shield us from much of that type of footage by spoon feeding us soap opera 'news' about pretty white girls who are missing, but you can find it if you look hard enough, especially on some of the Mideastern news networks and some of the European networks (Euronews). .
I dont know the context in which the pictures were taken, we are not sure that the guy didnt have a explosives on him, or who he was . also I know how clever the palestinians and isrealis are at media manipulation, a three page thread of images of suicide bombers, their victims, children being encouraged to become suicide bombers, ect ect http://www.faithfreedom.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=13967&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0 a thread with some debunked images that appear to be isreali cruelty but were in fact not ,they are at the bottom of the page. http://www.fomi.nu/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1627&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=120
That was very interesting.. i doubt jack33 will be as interesting. I am always a bit sceptical to respond to threads were the initial person has only one post.. seems a 'hidden agenda' is likely.
it would be interesting to hear his opinion on suicide bombing , or the family of 11 shites killed in iraq today because they lived in a sunni neighbourhood they all had their throats cut . now you would think that they need to be remembered too, being shot is quick, having your throat cut is pretty slow in fact your taught to do it slow so the person feels more pain.
two interesting storys to come out of palestine one hamas have said that they intend to re-introduce the al-jeziya tax on non muslims , this was a special tax that non muslim have to pay and was part of a system of discrimination and apartied called dhimmitude that all non muslims who lived under islamic states had to put up with . the other story involves calls by hamas to conquer spain , in traditional islamic theology any land at any time conquered by muslims or where there was a islamic state is forever muslim land and you have a obligation to re-conquer it . this makes it more likely that these countrys will be attacked apart from the general command to make the world muslim and fight pagans ect ect . the story about the introduction of apartied discrimination by hamas is here in a story about the flight of christians from place like bethlehem http://www.chiesa.espressonline.it/dettaglio.jsp?id=44202&eng=y "It is a fear that took shape after the electoral victory of Hamas, not only in Bethlehem’s municipal elections, but also in those of other cities of Cisjordan: Nablus, Jenin, Qalqilya. A new style can already be seen in the municipalities where Hamas is installed: Christian women employed there, who are accustomed to shaking everybody’s hand, are held at a distance by the newly elected, for whom physical contact violates Islamic principles. The general plan of Hamas also includes the imposition of a special tax, called al-jeziya, upon all of the non-Muslim residents in the Palestinian territories. This tax revives the one applied through all of Islamic history to the dhimmi, the second-class Jewish and Christian citizens. In an interview with Karby Legget, published in the December 23-26 edition of “The Wall Street Journal,” Masalmeh, the leader of the Hamas contingent at the municipal council of Bethlehem, confirmed: “We in Hamas intend to implement this tax someday. We say it openly – we welcome everyone to Palestine but only if they agree to live under our rules.” the story on the conquest of spain is here http://www.frontpagemag.com/Articles/ReadArticle.asp?ID=20726 Ive seen simular calls in lots of places people who support groups like the palestinians or hamas need to look in detail at what they support also they need to look behind the spin lies and flim flam. really they should read some books on dhimmitude, not just from the muslim perspective the perspective of the person who is oppressing and discriminating, but from the perspective of the victims of dhimmitude . The Decline of Eastern Christianity Under Islam: From Jihad to Dhimmitude Bar Ye'or, The Myth of Islamic Tolerance: How Islamic Law Treats Non-Muslims Robert Spencer (Editor), Andrew G. Bostom The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (and the Crusades) Robert Spencer Islam and Dhimmitude: Where Civilizations Collide Bat Ye'or all these are good books to read and to encourage local Libraries to have in stock , there is a ebook of the politically incorrect guide to islam and the crusades about if you can find it . there are lots more books written often at great danger to the author , but those books should give you a idea what dhimmitude was and is .
