To Americans with Love…

This is a link to a video clip about Palestinian Children. I got this link by email, and after watching it , it moved me!! Whenever I watch anything about those innocent children, it moves me to tears…I feel helpless and sorry for them and for all children all over the world who are suffering even as I am writing this post.

As an individual I feel that I cannot do much to help but to sympathies! I know that a lot others can and do help. With all the funding and projects by the United Nation, the foreign governments and non profit organizations that are geared towards helping out by providing education, medical and social funding, there is a huge deficit and unjust performance. Those children need to feel safe and secure, even in their own refugee camp that they call home!

What did the Arab nations do to help out those young ones, or their extended families? Providing money? Who ensures that this money is being used to help those children? Money does not solve all problems…there has to be an international and domestic aid to take care of these children in every way possible. Watch this video and live some of the horrors these kids are living! Life is just not fair at all !!

In case the link does not work out for you, here is the video clip web address, copy and paste to your own browser.

If Palestinians did that, this would make headlines in the U.S media.

Tove Johansson from Stockholm walked through the Tel Rumeida checkpoint with a small group of human rights workers (HRWs) to accompany Palestinian schoolchildren to their homes. They were confronted by about 100 Jewish extremists in small groups. They started chanting in Hebrew “We killed Jesus, we’ll kill you too!” — a refrain the settlers had been repeating to internationals in Tel Rumeida all day.

After about thirty seconds of waiting, a small group of very aggressive male Jewish extremists surrounded the international volunteers and began spitting at them, so much so that the internationals described it as “like rain.” Then men from the back of the crowd began jumping up and spitting, while others from the back and side of the crowd kicked the volunteers.

The soldiers, who were standing at the checkpoint just a few feet behind the HRWs, looked on as they were being attacked.

One settler then hit Tove on the left side of her face with an empty bottle, breaking it on her face and leaving her with a broken cheekbone. She immediately fell to the ground and the group of Jewish extremists who were watching began to clap, cheer, and chant. The soldiers, who had only watched until this point, then came forward and motioned at the settlers, in a manner which the internationals described as “ok… that’s enough guys.” [Source]

And then people wonder why the hell do some people bomb themselves just to kill a few other people. If Palestinians are denied the simplest rights such as the right to play football, can we expect them to love the tyrant who on the top of everything else deprived them from playing football?

This is not about a stupid football game, this is about depriving a nation from the little joy and pride they get from representing their country in international sports events. Add this to the endless list of Israel’s human rights violations, from genocide to home demolitions, assassination of freely elected political figures and violating children’s rights. And we still ask why would someone ever become a suicide bomber? hunger, absence of water and electricity, terrorizing sonic bombs, using people as human shields, murder, jail, torture…some prefer to die than live such a life.

This tumour called Israel will never heal if it continues to be an occupier.

Israeli travel restriction against Palestinians are no news, not only within Palestine, but also in and out of Palestine. Those who are traveling to represent Palestine in various cultural events are especially targeted with such restrictions as part of Israel’s efforts to deny and abolish Palestinian identity [More]
