Why do we allow Suicide Bombers to be created on this planet we call our home?

Ninja left a comment on my blog in regards to Indigenous Australians and their substandard health.  He said, “Everybody is born equal - I believe that. It is what happens the next day that sets up the pattern for the child's life ahead.”

Ninja’s statement is so true.  I posted this video yesterday but I am posting it again today to make my point.  Watch this video and see how distressed the children are.  See how angry the girl in the green jumper is and she has every right to be angry.  How can she and other children growing up under these circumstances not grow up hateful and resentful.  How can peace occur with so many emotionally and physically wounded children growing up into adults that maybe full of revenge for how they and their family were treated by their oppressors.

A respected psychologist has completed a study on 1000 Palestinian children and found that many of these Palestinian children no longer have a will to live.  As they were so dehumanized and so affected by seeing their father’s in particular beaten by Israeli defense forces.  The psychological condition is one of the dimensions of the Palestinian/Israeli conflict that is not widely understood.  -  reference

If these children no longer have a will to live then they have nothing to loose if they do become suicide bombers or violent aggressors.  This must be stopped not with violence but with love and understanding and by giving these children something hopeful and promising to live for.

There is only one way to give these children hope and that is to stop the violence and move towards peace and that will never happen as long as the US feeds Israel massive funding.  Israel has the ability to stop the violence but it won’t. The only country that currently has the ability to change this situation is America and it can do that by placing suitable pressure on Israel . At present America is not placing the pressure it needs to on Israel, the only way to get America to put enough pressure on Israel is by educating all of those in the Western world what is really happening in Palestine and then the Western world and the American citizens placing pressure on the American government.

In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends. - Martin Luther King Jnr - US black civil rights leader & clergyman (1929 - 1968)

One way to educate people in the Western world is through the release of the movie Occupation 101.  But due to lack of funds the makers are unable to release the movie for public screening and DVD distribution; it is possible to make donations towards the release of the documentary at their website.

Another way to educate people is just tell people and show people the footage that is freely available at the Occupation 101 website or at YouTube by doing a search for Occupation 101. 

But whatever you chose to do, I hope that you will take note of the footage that you have seen and start to put pressure on governments around the world so that this situation can be halted.  Many of the issues in the Middle East are related to the occupation of Palestine by Israel.

Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter. - Martin Luther King Jnr - US black civil rights leader & clergyman (1929 - 1968)

I am not saying that the Jewish population should be thrown out of the area but ways must be made so that Palestinians can live safely, comfortably and in harmony alongside the Israeli population.  As it stands now due to the ill treatment of the Palestinian community, that will never be possible and there will NEVER be peace in the Middle East.

Now before I am accused as being anti-Semitic, I am not.  But I am not pro-Zionism at the cost of all other peoples.

He that would make his own liberty secure must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself. - Thomas Paine. patriot & political philosopher (1737 - 1809).
