goodbye and don't come back

Goodbye Condoleezza and don’t come back

Go back Condoleezza to Washington, sit with your retarded boss and tell him what you saw in Lebanon and tell him that nobody here is interested in your New Middle East because it is adulterated merchandise. Your new Middle East began with a bloody war in Iraq killing hundreds of thousands of Iraqi people, destroying the country and robbing its oil and provoking a civil war. Your new Middle East arrived to the poor Gaza strip where you forced a siege on the Palestinian people because it dares to choose its leadership. And you incited your wild bulldog to kill more Palestinians in pretext of fighting terrorism. And now you incited this dog to attack Lebanon. You provided him with the most lethal weapon, with clever bombs, with mass destruction weapons. And you gave it the time to do what ever it wants. So it destroyed houses, bridges, villages, actually everything which moves and not moves, killing children, women, and old people again in pretext of fighting terrorism. Now this bulldog asks for another 2 weeks to destroy more places and kill more people, would you give him?
Is this what you call democracy? Do you do that to crown Olmert to be the king of the new Middle East? But he is even more retarded than your boss, how will he manage? Do you think your agents in the Arab world can help him? But you see that these tactics didn’t work in Iraq so why do you think it will work in Gaza and Beirut? And when will you destroy Damascus and force it to join the New Middle East as well?
No Condi, don’t come back here because we prefer our lousy old Middle East

The massacre of Qana

The massacre of Qana
The misery of humanism and the downfall of ethics

After seeing the terrible and shocking photos of children who were massacred today in Qana by Israel, one can ask this legitimate question: are those who committed this crime human beings? And if yes, then what’s the essence of humanity?

This is not the first massacre in human history, and for sure won’t be the last one. 10 years ago, in the same place, the Nobel price “for peace” winner Shimon Peres led a massacre killing more than 100 children and civilians. Since the establishment of the state of Israel our region knew many massacres to mention some of them only: Deir Yasin, Kofr Qasem, Sabra and Shatella, Jenin.
To be honest, many massacres happened in other places and other times. Therefore I raise the first question in a different way: are we as human beings human? Do we really belong to our race?
Israeli politicians, militaries, writers, thinkers, artists declare shamelessly and arrogantly in every occasion that the Israeli state and army are the most ethical in the world. Even more than that, they often claim that they are the only ethical while the entire world suffers from double morals. They talk about the purity of the army weapons.
Big philosophers from Socrates, Plato and Aristotle to the modern philosophers spent their whole life trying to define what ethics mean and contain, what’s right and wrong behavior, what’s justice. And they couldn’t give us a satisfying answer, while the smallest politician in Israel knows all the answers for these questions.
Who wants to look for racist quotations of Israeli leaders will find plenty of them, but he won’t be able to explain how these quotations go in harmony with ethics. When one dehumanizes his enemy then he legalizes his killing. Israel does this with Palestinians, Lebanese and other Arabs, and in lesser degree to the rest of the world. One Israeli said: they are cockroaches; other leader said they are snakes, and another said that they are genially distorted, and another said that God regrets that he created them. No need to say that it’s not a crime to kill cockroaches. Israel uprooted the Palestinian people and destroyed its villages in 48 for his own good. It occupied the rest of Palestine in 1967 also for its own good, since the Israeli occupation is civil sized and merciful. It’s impudent and ingratitude from the Palestinians to resist this occupation. Now, the modern definition that they are terrorists, that means it’s legal to kill them.
The same ethical principles are applied now in Lebanon, in pretext of fighting Hezbollah, Israel is destroying all of Lebanon. And why it’s doing that? For the sake of their own good, to liberate them from Hezbollah. There are no civilians in Lebanon. There are terrorists and supporters of terrorists and they are legitimate targets for killing. The only ones who can continue to live are those who collaborate with Israel. In this war there’s no difference between fighters, and non fighters, between men and children and women, all of them are kosher food for the Israeli missiles and bombs. One minister said: the destruction is not enough and the using of fire is not enough we have to delete complete villages from the map. Another Rabbi said: we’ve to kill them all, terrorists, civilians, women, and children.
Unfortunately, not only some leaders who think and talk like that but 81% of the population. All of them want to see more destruction, more fire, and more killings. The Israeli TV didn’t show the pictures of the murdered children under the rubble. The prime minister said that he needs 2 more weeks to finish the job, in other words to kill more people and destroy more villages.
The Israeli leaders, together with the American administration and their allies in Europe and in the Arab world are responsible for these war crimes. But we, human beings, are responsible for defending and saving the human face of humanity.

لماذا ترفض كوندوليزا رايس وقف اطلاق النار الفوري؟

لماذا ترفض كوندوليزا رايس وقف إطلاق النار الفوري؟

لقد اصبح واضحا للجميع أن الحرب على لبنان هي حرب إسرائيلية – امريكية. إسرائيل تقدم الجنود وتقوم بالعمليات العسكرية المباشرة بينما تقوم الولايات المتحدة بتزويدها بالمال والسلاح والدعم السياسي. هذا التعاون وتوزيع الادوار ليس جديدا فقد طبق في العراق وكافة مناطق الشرق الاوسط من اجل التوصل الى الشرق الاوسط الجديد من منظور امريكي اسرائيلي. السؤال الذي يحيرني هو حماس كونديليسا رايس المنقطع النظير لعرقلة كل قرار لوقف اطلاق النار وإعطاء الوقت الذي تحتاجه اسرائيل لإكمال جرائمها في لبنان. ولم استطيع تبرير هذا الحماس من منطلق الانسجام مع موقف الولايات المتحدة الامريكية المؤيد الى ابعد الحدود للعدوان حتى تحقيق اهدافه السياسية الا وهو القضاء على المقاومة وفرض التسوية الامريكية – الاسرائيلية على لبنان ومن ثم على باقي دول المنطقة.
ان حماس كوندوليزا رايس الزائد لمواصلة الحرب وإفشال كل امكانية لوقف النار يصدر عن خبايا حالكة في شخصيتها. بالرغم من اني لست طبيبا او محللا نفسيا الا انني اعرض نظريتي هذه على الخبراء لكي يبتوا بها.
لقد تميزت الحرب الاخير في لبنان بهمجيتها وتدميرها لكل شيء من بنى تحتية وبيوت وقثل بدون تمييز. وقد تناولت وسائل الاعلام العالمية ان نسبة الاطفال الذين قتلوا في هذه الحرب تتجاوز ثلث القتلى. فإذا سلمنا انه لحد الآن قد قتل حوالي 600 شخص فهذا يعني ان عدد الاطفال يصل الى حوالي 200 طفل. وهذا الرقم المخيف يثير مشاعر الامومة في صدور كل الامهات مهما كان مكان سكناهن ومهما كان موقعهن في الحياة. والسؤال هنا: اليس من المعقول بما ان أحشاء كوندوليزا رايس لم تحمل ابدا طفلا ولم تنجب اية حياة الى هذا العالم، وبالتالي فهي مجردة من عاطفة الامومة وما تحمله من حنان، يلعب دورا حاسما في موقف كوندوليزا اللا انساني من الحرب؟ مما لا شك فيه انها رأت كما رأينا جميعا صور الاطفال الذين قتلوا من خلال القصف الاسرائيلي الوحشي ورأت صور الاطفال الذين ما زالو تحت الردم، وقبل ذلك رأت قتل الاطفال الفلسطينيين في غزة حيث قتل في شهر حوالي 40 طفلا موثقين بالاسم والصورة. ومع ذلك فإن تعابير وجهها تبقى باردة وكأنها مصنوعة من البلاستيك، وكأنها ممثلة في فلم هوليوودي في دور إمرأة اصطناعية. وكما يقول المثل: فاقد الشيء لا يعطيه. وحرمان كوندوليزا من عاطفة الامومة الى يجعلها المرأة المثالية للدفع عن مواصلة هذه الحرب وقتل المزيد من الاطفال؟
وقد تكون عقدتها أكبر واعمق من ذلك. ربما مثلا بسبب فشلها في اقامة علاقات شخصية واقامة عائلة قد دفعها الى الحقد على الحياة بشكل عام وعلى الرجال بشكل خاص، واذا صحت الحكاية التي تقول بإن احدى هذه العلاقات الفاشلة كانت مع رجل من أصل ايراني فقد يكون احد اسباب كراهيتها للمنطقة هو نوع من الانتقام من هذا الرجل. وقد يكون هناك عامل إضافي لحقدها: وهو شعورها بالنقص أمام رئيسها وزملائها البيض في الادارة الامريكية بسبب انتمائها للأصل الاسود. وهذه العقدة نعرفها نحن هنا عند العديد من اليهود الشرقيين الذين يبالغون بكرههم للعرب كتعبير عن الشعور بالنقص ازاء الطبقة الاشكنازية الحاكمة.
اذا كانت هذه النظرية معقولة فأنا انصح كوندوليزا ان تعرض نفسها على أحد الاختصاصيين وحتما ستجد هناك من يساعدها ويعيد بعض الحياة لابتسامتها الصفراء الباهتة وقد يدخل بعض الحنان الى صدرها. لتفكر مثلا في ان تتبنى طفلا من المناطق المنكوبة بسبب السياسة الامريكية. ولكي تتخلص من عقدة النقص ما عليها الاان تراجع سيرة الكثيرين من السود اللذين ناضلوا من أجل الحرية والعدالة من أمثال مارتن لوثر كينغ، مالكوم أكس، نلسون مانديلا وآخرون.

The new Middle East

The new middle east

About 17 years ago when I was still living in Holland I tried to start my own company for translations and press services and I called it “the new orient” my feeling was and still that the Dutch people is fed with wrong or distorted information on the Arab East and suffer from many stereotypes about this region of the world and it’s people. But because I’m a bad business man and other reasons I stopped. A Dutch friend advised me, in view of the fact that I can cook delicious Palestinian food, to start a catering company and he promised me this time to succeed because Dutch people like foreign food. Again I called to this new company “the New Middle East”. But for the same reason it didn’t succeed.
Why I mention this introduction? I simply wanted to say that I personally thought about new Middle East long before Bush and Rice knew where the Middle East is located on the map. And I can say for sure that all those who emigrated from the Middle East to Europe or to other places dreamed about a new Middle East.
But the new Middle East which Bush and Rice talk about and which most people in the Middle East talk about it are completely two different things. We dreamed about Modern, prosperous calm peaceful Middle East while they talk about Middle East full of wars (qwait, Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine, Lebanon). We talked about free, united and independent Middle East. But the talk about a middle east under American-Israeli hegemony. We talked about rich and just Middle East where the population can enjoy this richness and have a better life. While they talked about Middle East as a source to get more profit for multi national oil and other companies. We talked about a clean middle east from corrupted leaders. While the adopted all corrupted leaders if they accept their hegemony. No one can be convinced here that Mubarak, king Abdullah of Jordan or Saudi is better than Asad or Saddam Hussein. If the last 2 accepted the American – Israeli hegemony probably they would continue to be friends of the USA until today.
Bush and Rice reject immediate cease fire because they want to build with Israel their new Middle East on the dead bodies of the children of Gaza and south Lebanon. They want to build their Middle East on the rubble of the destroyed homes of the people of Jenin, Nablus, Gaza, Rafah, Bent Jbail, Tyre, Beirut and other hundreds of towns and villages. Exactly as the Zionist movement built its monstrous state Israel on the rubble of more than 500 Palestinian villages in 1948.

Is it a film or a war

Is it a film or a war?

Until time ago, like many youth here, I liked to see the action films of Arnold Schwarzengger. To see how the invisible terminator kill all his enemies without being hurt. In that time I didn’t care about his political ideas and I didn’t pay much attention for the real aim beyond these stupid films, to confirm the supremacy of the “American hero” even when he entered politics and became California government, I didn’t take him too seriously and he continued to be just a movie star. Meanwhile his right wing character and policy became to be more and more obvious. And I felt again betrayed, I discovered that many of my favorite actors are very reactionary in politics, beginning with Frank Sinatra through Clint Eastwood ended with Schwarzengger. When I saw him few days ago in a demonstration to support Israel, it was too much. What this stupid guy things that the war is a Hollywood film? Did he learn from Israel all this brutality and fire force or did Israel learned from him? In pretext of the right of Israel to defend itself it killed so many innocent people and destroyed everything belong to the other side, exactly as Schwarzengger was doing in his films. But there’s one thing I would like to remind Israel and its ally from Hollywood: the war in Lebanon is not a movie. It’s a real war, the killings are real the blood is real. And I want to remind them in another thing: in this war the so called heroes can be hurt and suffer, and that the real heroes here are those guys who fight and defend their land and people

الانسان وليست آلة الحرب

الانسان وليست آلة الحرب

في نهاية المطاف، الانسان هو العنصر الحاسم في الحرب وليس السلاح. هذا ما قاله منذ وقت طويل ماو تسي تونغ في خضم نضاله الثوري ضد الاستعمار ومن اجل حرية وأستقلال الصين. وقد أثبتت جميع الثورات هذا المبدأ. الآلة الحربية مهما بلغت شراستها ومهما استعملته من اسلحة متطورة تستطيع أن تقتل وتدمر البنى التحتية وتحرق الارض ولكنها لا تستطيع لوحدها أن تحسم المعركة نهائيا، لأن هذا الحسم هو قرار إنساني. تستطيع الآلة الحربية أن تقتل المناضلين ولكنها لا تستطيع أن تفرض عليه الاستسلام. لكي يستسلم يجب على المناضل أن يتخذ قراره. ومن هنا تنبع أهمية وضرورة وجود مناضلين لا يساومون ولا يستسلمون وعندها وفي نهاية المطاف هم اللذين سيحسمون المعركة لصالحهم ولصالح قضيتهم أما الآلة الحربية فسيكون مصيرها أن تصبح خردة وترمى الى مزبلة التاريخ.
تحاول الآلة الحربية الاسرائيلية التي يكاد أن لا يكون لها مثيل في تاريخ البشرية بكل جبروتها أن تحسم معركة الصراع المصيري والوجودي بين الكيان الصهيوني وبين شعوب المنطقة وكانت في كل معاركها تستعمل اشرس أنواع الهدم والقتل والتدمير بواسطة كافة انواع الاسلحة الاكثر تطورا. فقد هدمت ودمرت وقتلت وحققت الانتصارات على مدى اكثر من نصف قرن، وفرضت الاستسلام على العديد من الانظمة ومن التنظيمات ومن القيادات ولكنها عجزت أن تخمد لهيب المقاومة المقدس الذي كان ينبعث دوما من تحت الانقاض والرماد ويتابع المسيرة في احلك الظروف و ,اصعبها وينتقل بالمعركة الى جولة أخرى. هذا النوع من المقاومة لا يموت أبدا إلا بعد أن يحقق النصر الاخير.
الحرب الاخيرة التي شنتها وما زالت تشنها اسرائيل ضد الشعبين الفلسطيني واللبناني مقترفة ابشع الجرائم في حق الانسانية سوف تفشل مرة اخرى في حسم المعركة لصالحها، وهذا ما يدفعها الى حالة من الجنون فترد بمزيد من الجرائم والتدمير. المقاومة الفلسطينية واللبنانية ما دامت متمسكة بحقها وما دام ايمانها بعدالة قضيها راسخ لا يتزعزع هي التي سوف تحسم المعركة في نهاية المطاف لصالحها وتحقق النصر.

stop the war in Lebanon

13 days of killing and destraction where not enough to fill the greedy of the Israeli war machine.hundreds of people were killed most of them are civilians, many of them are children. the infrastracture were destroyed almost completely: houses, bridges, factories, streets, etc.
this is not a war, this is an unhuman instinct of of revenge, destruction and hate. this is the American- Israeli school for modern war: the burned ground, the use of force and more force without any discrimination. what happens in Lebanon these days and continues to happenes is war crimes against humanity. the respnsible for these crimes are first of all the Israeli leaders and their war machine. but also the American administration which supports Israel militarally and politically. the European community and the Arab regimes are also active partners in these crimes. the war in Lebanon is a mark of disgrace for all humanity. nobody, if he wants to stay human, has the right to keep silent. this war must be stopped immediately and without any conditions. those who committed these crimes should be persecuted.
