Palestinians celebrating the death of innocent civilians. Maybe Israel isn't the only party who we should be yelling at? |

GAZA - About 10,000 Palestinians handed out sweets, sang songs and chanted anti-Israeli slogans as they marched through Gaza city on Wednesday to celebrate the bombing that killed seven people at Jerusalem's Hebrew University.
The rally was organised by the Islamic movement Hamas, which said it carried out the attack to avenge an Israeli air strike on Gaza last week that killed its military commander Salah Shehada and 14 others, including nine children. |

I will yell at anyone who supports violence. I will yell at Palestinians who support suicide bombings against the Israeli people. I will yell at Israelis who support a bloody war of occupation against the Palestinian people. I will yell at white Americans who support racial profiling and defend the police when they commit acts of brutality against innocent African-Americans. I will yell at Americans who support torture of Arabs and "asymmetrical warfare" with "acceptable collateral damage" under the guise of a war on "terror". I will yell at the Matt Hales and Slobodan Milosevics and Taliban mullahs who condone violence against people on the basis of ethnicity and gender. I will yell until my voice is hoarse, until I have yelled at everyone who accepts violence and turns their back on the victims, victims who cannot yell like I can because they are dead or injured or cowed by fear. I will yell my refusal to participate in the bloodshed and hatred.
When I'm done yelling, I will notice that I'm surrounded by other people yelling. The people who believe in violence will all be yelling at each other, each blaming the other for the violence they claim to abhor. "Wait," I will yell, "that is not my yell. That is a different yell. A cynical, hypocritical, self-serving yell. A yell of self-righteousness, not a yell for justice."
I'll pray that someone can tell the difference. And I'll wish that none of us had ever started yelling, that we had instead decided to talk to each other and listen, and try to understand. |

Stop funding Israel.
The Palestinian people are far more oppressed than Israel it seems? what is the argument?
Yell at the USA.
or Dance on the Tables everywhere , do something, anything
but do stop the USA from destroying Humanity.
The Earth is becoming angry , if it can possess anger or it can be perceived in the violence of it storms or is it scientific perfection that controls us with no room for greed and fear of a God that exists in all of us, or doesnt.
