The Art Of Liberation by the Palestinian Painter Said Eletab

"This is a painting of Yahya Sinwar the new Messiah of Palestine,they crucified him like Jesus Christ. If they killed him then every Palestinian is Yahya Sinwar until Palestine will be liberated." Said Eletab

The Europeans colonized
middle earth and Africa
as their God given right
America built on the labour
of African slaves
Indigenous killed
murdered, and slaughtered
then laughed at
some of you still live in this world
others though, through the eyes of history
have admitted
if not confessed, the evil deeds
now you see children burned alive
in hospital tents, on purpose
and for that
they are your new enemy

This breaks my heart, we as a people keep repeating history and in our ignorance, there is no negotiation or comprimise.

I have my view..I try also to allow scope.' to Accept I don't know all, I do know there is a Vested interest in causing wars.' I don't wish to Bore..Yet I see it serves to divide and blind the People.' And wrong is heaped upon wrong.' All blessings to all out there.'

The murder of innocent people because jerks happen to live in among them is this generations horror show, up front and personal.. and media white washed. Now the protests of the 60s make more sense to many eh?

Part 2 They hold 1000's upon 1000s of Palestinians for minor infractions with no recourse to lawyers, however 800 woman and children held for no reason at all, simply picked up of the streets to intimidate their people. Hamas wanted to exchange hostages for hostages. The IDF actually shot some of the concert goers on Oct 7th. The west dos not see all the news. :(

Part 1 Not sure what jerks you mean? Hamas under UN conventions has every right to defend its land, we send billions to Ukraine to defend the invasion on them, yet send 100x billions to Israel so it can invade Palestine, Before 1948 Israel did not exist. The humans rights abuses, committed by Israel documented by Israelis is horrendous, did you know on Oct 7th Israel was bulldozing down Palestinian homes in the west bank?

Arthur, the strategy of killing to bring peace makes no sense to me either. One would hope that all the people there will come to their senses and start talking to each other constructively. What we have now meets my definition of insanity.

Is not the people there, is Israel, is like saying during world war 2, I wish Europe would come to their senses, there is an aggressor and oppressor who doesn't even follow international rules of law, and USA Canada and UK seem to support this, very sad! Genocide is what it is. Thank you for commenting, many will not on a touchy issue!
