CONFLICTING EMOTIONS.(#FreePalestine.)
Three travelers are having breakfast at the halfway home cafe.
"Ever since," Says the captain,"I take my coffee black.You know how it is,when you go black you don't go back!"
The soldier said,"Make it white,extra cream!"He winks at his comrade and proclaim,"When you go white,nothing else seem right."
Table no.3 at the corner call out,"Refill please.Straight Mocha!" He lifts up the mug,beckons the fellas and say."When you go brown,you get the crown!"
Haha!Yes i know.But that does not necessarily make them racial!It could be preference or even referential!
As a Christian,i pray for Israel.It is not really an obligation,its a chemistry.Like most people,i too certainly is in love with Israel!Not to mention the fact that,it is an added blessing on those who bless Israel.
However,it is also written,"He who has eyes,let him see and he who has ears,let him hear." I have both,its the reason why am able to discern right from wrong.So yes,am all united for a free Palestine!
Does that make me so wrong in being right?Or so right in being wrong?

Very interesting choice in making this a poem. The part that troubles me the most is outside forces have enabled both sides. Israel is one of the top nations in terms of selling weapons and it is no secret that groups like Hamas get weapons from at least 3 nations.

Where trouble is boiling,fire never lacks supply!But again,don't you think with superpowers being so pro-Israel,its only fair then that Hamas also get nourished by Kim or Flock of seagulls or whoever the sympathizers and allies?
I do not support war,war is never a solution,but then if it is a must,let it be a fair match.(Obviously far from fair and far from a match!...)Anyway...
Thank you Mr.Jazz and for dropping by!

So if we use that logic Hamas shoud build a nuclear bomb. The companies who manufacture weapons could care less about who uses their products. Both sides need a paradigm shift. As for superpowers I don't think Russia is aligned with Israel. Some people also make the argument that since the fall of the Berlin Wall and the elimination of the Warsaw Pact, there is only one superpower.
As you probably know Gandhi once said, "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind". Bigger and better weapons have a tendency to be used, therefore confirming fears about just how bad and evil the other side is.

Well,actually is not such a bad idea!How different would it be if Hamas was to build a nuclear bomb to the reckless violence,willingful killing and use of live ammunition by the Israel army?Wasn't it asked if the Palestinians had the means to attack,would they not do same or worse?Does that justify what Israel is doing?We have the means lets maim?No!
On the superpowers,to argue that there is only one superpower would be equivalent to claim that no superpower exists at all,because lets face it;what percentage of the US military resource is outside vs the troops in house?And as for the economy,shall we talk of deficit?Shall we talk of how much Uncle Sam owe Papa Chi?
Yes,Russia has been lashed,but even after all the wars it has fought,definitely is still a superpower!Well,not in the same state once was but it still got it!
Then there is China!Excellent economy!Military powerhouse!its Capitalistic aspect keep it more reserved but it cannot be ignored as a superpower.And also EU,it has a strong economy!Well,its army is all over Middle East but again,it counts...
Okey back to the point,on if Russia is aligned with Israel,allow me to quote one of my top critic(S)friend,a retired soldier,born Israel brought up in Russia and served in the Russian army,"Russia and Israel are mutual beneficiaries and allies when it comes to power,military and intelligence."
I agree,both of 'em need a radical change and in more than just thinking!
I think we need to start making less guns and make more hoes!
Peace Mr.Jazz!Have a good one!

I don't think our views are as different as it may seem. My basic premise is simply that the conflict has been made worse by the involvement of other nations, not better. One of the last things George Washington did was warn of the US getting involved in "foreign entanglements". Mind you Adams and Jefferson didn't pay Washington any mind!
I am also convinced that the leaders of both sides are inclined to keep the hostilities going. There can be no defense of the Apartheid like state imposed by Israel. Enough blame to go around.

Yea,and then there is the terror groups and organizations and individuals also taking advantage of the situation!It is sickening that,you know,there are people who actually benefit big time from blood shed and unrest!
I hope someday,some someday a solution will prevail,i hope both sides can somehow,miraculously or whatever it will take, defy olds and logic of the past and the present for the future!
Oh Mr.Jazz,Ahsante (thank you)for your time,for reading,reviewing and sharing you thoughts with me!
Looking forward to another moment like this!
Cheerrss!Lots of respect!

Lady Peninnah...Bless you girl Scripture tells us that Israel is God's special chosen...and her borders are clearly spelled out in the Holy Bible and so "If God be for us whom can be against us?" (Romans 8:31 - KJV)...we know who will win...Please be safe and well...thanks and take care...Jimbo
