Then they’d really call for a ceasefire.<br /><br /> "'Were this to happen, the images from Gaza might be unpleasant – but victory would be swift, and the lives of our soldiers and civilians spared.'"TChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05915822857461178942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4445844569294316288.post-50951152245211692882012-11-18T13:53:02.144-08:002012-11-18T13:53:02.144-08:00Yes, someone is always looking away.Yes, someone is always looking away.TChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05915822857461178942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4445844569294316288.post-59768738706276055882012-11-18T13:48:17.965-08:002012-11-18T13:48:17.965-08:00Following your comment ..

The result is a dulling of the receptivity, the ability to feel compassion. In this bland state the general population of the West sits inert in a continual bombardment of politically generated pseudo-"information". Because in the West this assault repetitively produces and applies the same false "tit for tat" logic, it may be necessary to peer outside the edges of that box in order to get the slightest glimpse of what is really happening.TChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05915822857461178942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4445844569294316288.post-79252129243157836122012-11-18T13:26:28.335-08:002012-11-18T13:26:28.335-08:00Completely second WB.

Comes to my mind but ofcourse the innocence has been lost having seen so many bombs dropped all over and the commencement of every new operation being reported in the same vein as the beginning of the Olympic Games World Cups and what have you. adityahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16078144194220301083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4445844569294316288.post-10290082626350052372012-11-18T12:21:26.151-08:002012-11-18T12:21:26.151-08:00The "Overkill Syndrome" in all its g(l)o...The "Overkill Syndrome" in all its g(l)ory.vazambam (Vassilis Zambaras)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14515165428574974933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4445844569294316288.post-14528294499201818072012-11-18T11:28:56.887-08:002012-11-18T11:28:56.887-08:00Thank you friends, appreciate the interest in a su...Thank you friends, appreciate the interest in a subject upon which, in this country, it is widely considered socially inappropriate to comment.TChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05915822857461178942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4445844569294316288.post-90243807729653131492012-11-18T10:13:15.592-08:002012-11-18T10:13:15.592-08:00Filling up the tank at the station on the trip out...Filling up the tank at the station on the trip out.
