It seems that history is always on some playback machine. When maybe it took humanity a few millennia to repeat their insanity, technology now helps us relive our madness within the same generation.
You have heard a lot lately about the Gaza region in the middle east, but do you really understand what the area is used for? I will be honest and tell you that I did not fully understand the logistics and politics that Gaza exists within.
The following article was posted in AlterNet and it goes into clarifying the realities of the war being fought in Gaza. The future of humanity is grim because the mighty and powerful will continue to steal land and resources as they desire and the poor will react to the aggression.
It was only 60 years ago that the world experienced the shoah in Europe that was sponsored by the German government. Is there a sense of irony or is it destiny that the relocated Germans who are running the government of Israel have put another shoah in place? Wash, rinse and repeat.

good articles. somebody’s gotta do it in the US media, even if it’s a blog instead of a lamestream media outlet.
I don’t understand folk who have conditional condemnation of a civilians massacre, dependent on the demographic group of said civilians.
what’s the similarities between
Colombine killers
VA Tech killer
Ehud Barak/Israel military
1 all mass murderes of civilian children
—
what’s differs between them?
2 Ehud Barak/Israeli military after killing a UN school filled with nothin but school children & neutral UN officials, were the only ones without the decency to suicide themselves after committing such an atrocity

OK maybe I’m exaggerating a little, but not really.
Dallas you hit the nail on the head with this one. I’m not sure who it was who said, “That which we hate, we become” but that is exactly what is happening with the Israelies they have become the oppressor that they hated. That is what hatred does, it allows you to murder civilians and children with no remorse because you think that you are superior.
I am ashamed at this country for continuing to supply $ and arms to Israel!
I agree Dallas.
Thank you for this my dude.
respect to all of you for your words thoughts and sharing your ideas. Now we must find a way to slow the money that feeds the war machine…………………….pray for peace, work for peace and think of a way to speak truth to power….engage your friends and family, write to the blatant cowards in Congress and demand that our money not be spent to fuel madness….it is slow but we can stop it…at least I hope it is not too late……what you sow is what you’ll reap…….and the most basic of Universal Laws …………..what goes around………………………comes around…..Peace, Ernie
The kids who witness these things would have to be saints to not grow up and hate those responsible. It will take a lot to stop the cycle.
Violence begets violence. That why man will be cursed with war for a loooooooooong effin time. Maybe when we evolve to the point that we grow big ass heads and can communicate telepathically will this shit end, but so far, we seem to be riding that war shit until the wheels fall off.
no words for this.
I never thought I’d live to see some shit like this in my life time. I’m so naive.
This post should win an award, but better if it has an effect on what’s happening. Top-notch melding of words and photos.
You could call me Anti-Semite all you want, Jews are the devil in the flesh.

I am a Hebrew, an asiatic man, a Semitic man. If you want to throw some white under the bus, or some Blacks, or some Hindudes then you need to sharpen your sword before you cut the wrong person.
Jews are cool with us. Jewish, not so much. I tell all my friends that are Jews to claim it and don’t be ashamed of it. The color royal is true blue when the light is shined upon it while teal or aqua are only blue-ish.
What do I seek to be when the light is shined upon me.
Royal and true, not a facsimile.
