STOP BARBARIC AND WANTON MASSACRE OF PALESTINIANS IN GAZA!
I propose that the peoples of the world boycott Israeli products and stop all trade with Israel.
The peace loving people of the world must not just sympathize with the Palestinians but must take concrete action to bring the war criminal to justice.
Since the crime committed by Israel is supported and encouraged by the United States, Britain,and other major powers,it seems like nothing world can do to stop Israel intransigence.
How about to abandon the use of the US Dollar in international trade, and to stop buying United States' bonds? Such purchases have enabled the United States to grant substantial aid to Israel and to supply it with the weapons now being used against the people in Gaza and elsewhere, or how about to simply attack and bomb US and Israel? (THAT's IMPOSSIBLE HUH...??)
CEASEFIRE by Israel for 10 days huh.. THEN What happen next?? CAN we just see this drama again and again....??? tired of this already...Just wait for what He will give u in return,Israel!

We will not go down
Terror vs Error
As a human who has a head and a soul and lives in the wild world,I can't just hide my overwhelming feelings of terribly unsatisfied mixed with anger, sad and horrified by conditions that had been going on in Palestine. Now Over 1000 Palestinians have been killed,almost half of it are children and women.
What kind of the world we are living in? oppression, killing everywhere done by those people who have the sickness in their heart, full of hatred and inhumanity. The innocent and powerless people keep suffering from the injustice and cruelty of that bloody hands.
When a Palestinian gunman kills three Israeli soldiers for the sake of his life and land, then they(US media and their allies) claiming that Palestinian is TERROR, and when the tanks of Israeli troops kill hundreds even more of Palestinian civilians, then they say 'IT WAS A MISTAKE and ERROR'. What an absurd lame word game they are trying to play!
Again least we can do is keep praying for our brothers and sisters over there and I believe that miracles will get the error out of the truth,
PEACE from ME..
A blinding flash of white light
Lit up the sky over Gaza tonight
People running for cover
Not knowing whether they're dead or alive
They came with their tanks and planes
With ravaging fiery flames
And nothing remains
Just a voice rising up in the smoky haze
We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight
Women and children alike
Murdered and massacred night after night
While the so-called leaders of countries afar
Debated on who's wrong or right
But their powerless words were in vain
And the bombs fell down like acid rain
But through the tears and the blood and the pain
You can still hear that voice through a smoky haze
We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight

Look!
Oh if a tree could wander, 
and move with foot and wings,
it would not suffer the axe blows,
it would not suffer the axe blows,
and not the pain of saws.
For would the sun not wander,
away in every night,
how could at every morning,
the world be lighted up?
And if the ocean's water,
would not rise to the sky,
How would the plants be quickened,
by streams and gentle rain?
The drop that left its homeland,
the sea and then returned,
It found an oyster waiting,
and grew into a pearl.
Did Yusuf not leave his father,
in grief, tears and despair,
did he not by such a journey,
gain kingdom and fortune wide?
Did not the Prophet travel,
to far Medina, friends?
and there he found a new kingdom,
and ruled a hundred lands.
You lack a foot to travel?
then journey into yourself!
and like a mine of rubies
receive the sunbeams, print!
Out of yourself? such a journey
will lead you to yourself
It leads to transformation
of dust into pure gold.
-Rumi

IF YOU DON'T TRAVEL
I always marvel
Whenever I travel
Because if you don't travel
and extensively explore
How can you open those awaiting doors?
Mysteries always lie waiting to be unraveled
I travel with my eyes
Watching those silently cry
Asking themselves the question why
Someone left them without saying goodbye
I travel with my thoughts
Abundant knowledge I have found and sought
I travel with my pen
To write about children, women and men
I travel with my voice
Speaking sensibly refusing to induce confusing noise
I travel with my hope
Believing something new will spring into my horoscope
Whether in Africa or whether in Europe
There is always room, there is always scope
I travel to many places
Mix with different culture and races
Identify tribes by their faces
Everyone I always embrace
I travel with or without money
So please listen to my testimony
Every experience is worth life journey
I travel with intensive faith
Lavishing love rather than being defensive with hate
Because if you don't travel
How can you grow?
How can you know,
What is beneath the dust and below the gravel?
A Palestinian girl wheels her bicycle past a destroyed house and car in the Brazil section of the Rafah refugee camp, southern Gaza Strip

Gaza Strip Crisis
Friends, we are all aware of the suffering our brothers and sisters in Palestine have endured over the last 60 years.
The situation has now escalated to crisis point, and over 400 have been killed, not to mention the thousands who have been injured both physically and mentally with the unjust torture they have witnessed.
To all Muslims out there, to unite, to stand together and pray for our brothers and sisters in Palestine. We cannot disregard the power of doa, and in times like this, when we feel we have little or no control, we can turn to The One who has All Control and Power.
