Mr Meister: This issue is very complex but I will try to air my feelings.
I do not just look at one source, I always try to look at many things to get a perspective. I watched a video of Sir Gerald Kaufmann speaking to the British government and his words were strong and clear. This video is on globalresearch.ca, I think you should watch it.
There was an article in the Toronto Star, where the writer, who is Jewish was actually, I am going to say condemning those other Jewish voices that were speaking out against the violence, actually it was a sit in. So in my mind I think what right does the writer have to "control" the thoughts and feelings of another individual? Do you think it is right that a few have the right to oppress the voices of others? I mean we are all individuals, so I am asking you if I speak out against violence, then to have another group suppress my voice, do you think that is fair or reasonable?
What I think is happening is that a few, powerful people, want to set their agenda, they use propaganda, they even condemn their own kind. I watched a video where a gentleman in Israel, who was a retired miltary person, who was speaking out against the violence. The interviewer asked him the question, do you realize that your speaking out could get him labelled as a traitor. The gentleman replied yes, he knew but his views and feelings at the human loss were stronger then if he said nothing at all.
To be honest with you, these few, the power mongers, do not care who is in their way, it could you or me, anybody. People have to look through the propaganda, at really look at the issues.
Am I wrong for feeling the way I do? Think of it this way, in the main streasm media, there is a war on everything, war on drugs, war on the poor, war on the mentality disabled, war on those who have addictions, war, war, war. It never used to be these way. I do not watch TV anymore because of the messages that it sends.
I hate war, I hate violence, I hate weapons of mass destruction, I stand for peace.
Those from the grassroots can affect change
