Points of divergence from a non Arab/Jew - The Gaza conflict.

General Contents

I'm not siding for the Palestinians and neither the Israelis' cause. I don't personally know the reality in which today these people are living in, and besides I do not have a very good knowledge of the true history of that part of the world.


For me, it's very hard to come up with a personal opinion on the Israelis/Palestinians conflict, and because of what I know which I learned from history's books and news medias, that could easily been manipulated by politics' agendas, to give us the recipients, a partial truth of what is really going on in that part of the world.

What I do have here are some questions:

I know that the Jews were exiled from Palestine (what is now Israel) and scattered worldwide after a series of historic events, and that they, the Jewish people lost their native land for nearly two millennium!

Israel is a nation which was created by the Jews when they took forcibly the lands belonging to the indigenous people.

After WWII, many Jews from different nationality's backgrounds (because of the feelings of guilt from some European nations regarding the Jewish's Holocaust) were allowed to resettle in Palestine. Afterward, the Jewish settlers claimed a pretentious “divine right” on the Palestinian land, and after sequential steps the Jews declared the Jewish "Nation" of Israel in 1948.

Now, it's well known that in ancient times the Jews inhabited Palestine, but in my humble opinion the lost their natural rights once they were expelled from Palestine, for over two thousand years. They can't pretend after two millennium to go back and because of some, "divine right" ask their land to be returned. Could they?

When the Jewish settlers went back in Palestine, didn't they know that already were people living in it, or they thought that Palestine was a deserted land just waiting to be taken?

They say (the Jews) that the Palestinians have no right to that land, because they are not the original inhabitants, but frankly after two thousand years they have all the rights to be called the owners of that land. In short: the Jewish people after so many years lost the ownership of that land, and doesn't count any fanciful divine right. Am I wrong?

Unfortunately for the Palestinians, it is too late to recriminate on the creation of the Jewish state. The Palestinians have to deal with it, not with bombs but dialog, because the Israel nation isn't going to vanish, it is here to stay!

Even though I must confess, I do have an other terrible thought on the Jews real intentions regarding the Palestinians' fate, and it is the justification they are seeking to erase the Palestinian people from earth's face when they are declaring terrorists most of the Palestinian fighters.




Today according to some news medias, the action taken by the Israeli military in response to the rocket attacks inside the Israeli's borders by the Hamas movement as been too disproportioned. Even in this recent Israeli-Palestine's crisis is very hard for me to give a personal opinion! In one hand, I do believe that Israel has the right to defend itself, but in the other hand (as some news medias have reported) I do believe Israel has overstepped that right.

Some time, I do get the impression that to some news medias it's more important to report and emphasize the few Jewish casualties of this war than the thousands of Palestinian casualties.

Of course, I can be completely wrong in any of the above thoughts...My are personal opinions of the current Middle East crisis, and they don't pretend to be anything else.

In conclusion, will this Middle East's mess ever stop?

I'm sure about one thing in all this Middle East's mess, and it is that this Palestinian/Israeli's war has been going on for over fifty years, and sadly it will continue for an other fifty years. The real victims of this prolonged Israeli-Palestine's war are the innocents of both side, and with them in the end I will side.

Islam's contributions to the human inheritance

Islam

I've been intrigued by a comparison that I have read in different articles and blogs' commentaries, regarding the Jews harvesting a big chunk of Nobel Prize awards, in spite of them being a very small percentage of the entire world population, when actually only a handful of Arabs scientists and intellectuals, had the honor to be awarded of the Nobel Prize.

In fact, between 1901 and 2007, more than 750 Nobel Prizes were handed out, of all these awards at least 162 have been given to Jews, and only 6 Muslims had the pleasure to be awarded of the Nobel Prize! That's a very meager contribution from the Arab societies, rendered to humanity's development and evolution.

Of course, a controversial question arises from most of us when reading those reports on: why a small population of about 13.5 Jews scattered all over the world with only a 5.3 million Jews actually living in Israel, managed to accomplished so many awards, when they are compared with the much bigger Arab populations of 1.4 billion Muslims, a proportion of 20% of World's entire population, that's a very big disparity. Don't you think so?

Anyway, the culprit of this lack of great minds in the Arab's populations, resides merely on a faulty social system based on a endemic disease, and such disease is named "Islam".

Populations under Islam have contributed almost nothing to mankind, for the mere fact that this (so called) religion has hampered any movement of ideas and efforts for a better educational system inside the Arab's societies.

Islam only creates societies under despotisms, and in return those despotic regimes choke economic and scientific progress, and in the same time giving more suffering to their own people from deplorable levels of illiteracy and miseducation.

Islam doesn't allow to unleash the potentialities from a big slice of humanity, because of its inheritance of obfuscating the hearts and minds of women and men under its shadow. Islam is an unprogressive force which impacts in many negatives ways by creating only unfavorable conditions, when it's tampering inside many lives. Therefore, Islam is in reality a dark force which is limiting Muslims to free their own ability in the fields of creativeness. Consequently, a few talented people can escape from Islam's malignant influence.

These disproportions between Arabs and Jews can't be be reduced?

Of course, they can.

In favor of the Arabs, I want to reference to a story which I learned a few days ago, while I was watching a TV- PBS/NOVA program.
This program was telling about the story of a young lady, who was capable to achieve her own dreams, despite her own background. Luckily for her, her family moved to the United Stated when she was only two years old.
By night she's a rocker. By day, she's a Harvard geneticist tracking the evolution of the human genome.

Pardis C. Sabeti
Born December 25, 1975 in Iran.

We came to the United States from Iran just before the Iranian Revolution in 1978, when I was two. There was a lot of political turmoil and we had to leave quickly. My parents had to start over, learn a new language, and just get going. There's a sense of resilience that my mom and dad gave me that I love. It's this idea that no matter what happens to you, you keep going. As long as I have a heartbeat, I'm fine.

Haven't her family decided to take this hard step, I don't believe she could have become what she is today. Thanks to a free society, she could elevated her spirit and mind for better prospectives, rather than letting her own creativeness been left to rotten by an archaic sets of religion's misinterpretations, created for the sake of humanity's conduct.

If her family had not taken that step of leaving from Iran, in all the possibilities I see her today, been dressed in a more traditional Islamic fashion while she is attending a more diminished role inside her family, and not a possible Nobel Prize. For sure, if the story above would had not happened, the world today would have one less bright mind, but one more devoted and submitted Muslim woman. One more miss, for the Arabs' proud!?!

I'm not asking for Islam to be totally abolished, I guess, that's something which can't be done! But, at least to reform itself for a more progressive future if Islam really wish any good, for the portion of humanity under its grip.

Ominous winds of war coming from Iran.

Nuclear sites' agenda:

• operative sites
• sites in construction
• sites in projects

Many have questioned the real intents of Iran's proudly inclination for nuclear energy. Iran doesn't really needs nuclear reactors. Simple put, it has enough oil to supply all of its needs, for many years to come. Why then, its eagerness for nuclear energy? The answer at first look is very simple. Iran wants to accomplish nuclear power status to...(that's the real concern of many peaceful nations) to engage in a nuclear warfare against ...guess who? Of course, its much hated nemesis, "Israel".


From the current President of the Islamic Republic of Iran, "Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's statements" in which he expressly declares the total and imminent destruction of Israel. Hes insane declarations on Israel destruction, been repeated as a litany on any interview he gets. In one of his recent interviews held in Rome, (in the occasion of the FAO's summit for the global food crisis) the Iranian president has repeated once more his vehement concepts for a total annihilation of the Israeli nation:

Israel will disappear from the world's geography. The disappearance of the Zionist regime would be good for every nation of the world, a regime which makes suffer peoples, not only the Palestinian, but even the European, and the United States people. Sixty millions people died during world war II. For what reason, only a small part of these dead people is always been remembered.

(he's referring to the Jewish's holocaust)

I want just to say that this black box of the Zionist regime would finally been opened. What I have said regarding the Zionist regime, was mostly the announcement of a news, or in truth, I say, I announce that this regime is on its way out. There will be, its own demolition.

(I've integrally translated the Iranian president's interview with an Italian news media. I tried to be the most accurate possible, during this translation.)

"Is he crazy?" That's my personal reaction, after listening to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's interview. He doesn't gives the impression of a looney gay, at least that's the feeling I'm getting when I'm observing his interview. But then, we'll never know for sure who he is really behind that facade.


The prompt reactions that were coming from Israel towards Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's anti-semitic remarks, were not overdue:

you

(referring to Iran)

will vanish before us, if you won't stop with your nuclear programs.

This is a promise, that expressly Israel makes to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, while it's making evident allusion to its nuclear arsenal.


On the same note... Barack Obama during his candidacy to the United States' Presidency said:

I'm ready to defend Israel status as a sovereign state. Regarding Iran, I will do anything possible to impede Iran to get its hands on any possible nuclear capacities.

Today, Iran leads and sustain the radical wing of the Muslim world, if Iran would ever become a nuclear power, it would become in the same time leader of one of the most extreme and dangerous Islamic front of all time. Thereafter, a radical Iranian nation will set aside the moderated Islamic front, and in the end it will threaten not only Israel, but all the Western nations. As we all know, the radical Islamists are not just anti-Zionist, but anti-Westerners as well.

If a nuclear attack on Israel soil would ever happen, it wouldn't be without consequences for Iran itself? Not doubt about it. There will be outcomes for Iran too. Thinking of the consequences: the magnitude of damages would be of an immense tragedy on a vast scale. Common sense tells us, that this event it's too unrealistic and would never happen. Would it? In reality, concerns regarding the situation on that part of the world, are very worrisome.

The Iranian president should curb his fierce words, not knowing where those same words will bring not only the Israeli nation, but the entire Iranian nation as well. If he does not ceases with his insane words now, he is condemning to a certain catastrophe the all world. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's lunacy is bringing many nations to the edges of a nuclear war. Iranian people should wake up now, before it's too late. The destruction of the Israeli nation will come with a very high price to pay, not only Israel will suffer the outcomes, but Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's poisoning words are condemning as well, the nation of Iran.
