"A single death is a tragedy; a million deaths is a statistic." Joseph Stalin

"In the arts of life, man invents nothing;
but in the arts of death, he outdoes Nature herself,
and produces by chemistry and machinery all the slaughter of plague,
pestilence, and famine."
George Bernard Shaw

" Rachel Corrie, American killed by an Israeli army bulldozer, Tom Handel; British shot to the head by an Israeli sniper, James Miller; British shot by the Israeli army. If foreigners are dying like this in Gaza, what happens to the one million Palestinians who live there."  This is how the documentary "Investigation" by Journeyman begins.
This documentary is filmed by a British crew for over 40 days. They lived and filmed daily events you will not see in leading stream media. Palestinian civil casualty is a fact deliberately omitted from the U.S. news.
The Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip are under siege by the Israeli Army.
The Jewish People were victimized during WWII by the Nazi Germans, and since 1948, Israel has been crushing the  Palestinian refugees in the Gaza Strip. Children born during this conflict don't know what freedom feels like; they live under Israeli control like Jewish people lived under Roman rule in AD.
Palestinian people do not reflect the reality of what children, men, and women of Palestine, particularly those in the Gaza strip, had and will endure under Israel's single agenda to take over the Gaza strip. The Israeli Army, with the support of the United States, has at its disposal the latest technology and advanced weaponry. The Palestinian fight back with archaic and homemade weapons. Gaza is a giant prison, a camp where people are dehumanized. The same Nazi propaganda is used to degrade the Palestinian; it is so effective that when we think terrorists, we believe every Palestinian is a terrorist, a heartless coward, and a murderer.
Watching this program helped me understand the resentment of the Palestinian towards the U.S.  How can we accept this unfazed and support this injustice. With every innocent Palestinian civilian dying, dozen are rising and calling for "jihad," their only thoughts are revenge for the death of their mothers, sisters, and brothers. Revenge against those who abandoned them for more extensive paychecks and because of their greed. Payback for the daily humiliation of a father iin front of his son, revenge against the one responsible for your child helplessly lying in a hospital bed covered in blood from an Israeli bomb. Unfortunately, these feelings will throw young Palestinians into the arms of radical terrorists.

 Why would Israel be such a tyrant? And Why would the U.S. willingly and knowingly stand with Israel? Is our government really a hostage to the wealth of the Jewish American lobbyist. Are millions of  Palestinians expendable.? ...Please watch this 10 min documentary, and take a moment to leave a comment.

 Life in Gaza is a constant gauntlet of Israeli sniper fire, military rockets, and army bulldozers. No one is safe. In light of the escalating tensions, we're bringing back one of our most moving documentaries, a hard-hitting expose of life in the occupied territories. We speak to the children caught in the crossfire and discover the cost of Israel's targeted assassination policy.

2012 Mayan Calendar 'Doomsday' Date Might Be Wrong

 This article should get some of us more rational regarding the big hype about 2012, Planet X, and Doomsday... being reasonable is the hardest thing to do when overcome with extreme feelings of fear, despair, or even rapture. So open your mind to the idea that it could all be a spook, and we will all laugh about it on December 22, 2012. Otherwise, would you want to be the one to clean up the mess that Doomsday will leave behind? Would you want to survive Doomsday? Leave your comment: The Mayans Never Predicted the Doomsday Before continuing, it's worth emphasizing that this mesoamerican calendar (used by several cultures -- including the Maya -- in Central and South America before European colonization) does not predict an apocalypse. It never did, despite what the movie "2012" told us . The Mayan civilization existed from 250-900 A.D. in the current geographical location of southern Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, El Salvador,  and some of Honduras. Archaeologists...

Martin Luther King and equal rights, what have we done since?

Would you have the courage to enter a segregated dinner, sit at the counter, and order? Would you volunteer to be a freedom rider and travel to the South to test the new laws and face angry mobs? Would you march and be ready to die facing an open bigot City Hall and police department? What have we done with the rights handed to us? Would you die for your beliefs like 37 -years-old NAACP field secretary Medgar Evers , murdered outside his Mississippi home, or like the 3 young students ( James E. Chaney, 21; Andrew Goodman, 21; and Michael Schwerner , 24 ) who had been working to register black voters in Mississippi . We are under the impression that slavery and segregation have been abolished.  Is it? Today's Urban Cities are the new social and economic face of segregation. It is another way to separate those who have from those who have not. The new slavery is the hopelessness of the urban youth, the separation between poor urban public education and everywhere else.  What...
