Come on People

Tell me are you bored today? Well, I am. Yes, I am BORED. Do you know why? No, I am not bored because of the weather or because hubby is not home today or because all the shopping malls are closed, no, not at all. I am BORED of wannabes, I am BORED of yet another face in the crowd, I am BORED of another voice to make it noisier.

The nonstop indiscrimination on the Palestinians needs no introduction any more, the world is very much aware of the past, present and future situation there. If all the politicians of the world put together could not stop the injustice, if Ban Ki-moon’s voice just goes bouncing on the wall, what makes people think that demonstrations, flyers, emails etc could make a difference?

The stage of the UN is not much different as compared to all the stages in Hollywood, you see the heads of the countries talking and talking and talking, but it is just empty talks. Children and women are still being killed mercilessly in Palestine, families continuously falling apart, their future full of vengeance. Pencils and pens are being replaced with daggers, guns and stone. Do you think more talk, more demonstrations will make any difference? Do you?

My suggestion would be look within you, around you and inside you. Change, help and prayer should start within your inner self, your hands should reach to the needy in your country, your voice should be heard by your own people. Please stop being another face in the crowd, stop wasting your precious time in trying to make change when you don’t even know what the change you are trying to change is. Come on people, come on.

It makes me sick seeing faces like Angelina Jolie being pictured with children in Afghanistan, Madonna in Africa and many more publicity hungry seekers doing their so called goodwill to the needy. They claimed they have done so much that every media will broadcast their journey, how is it then that the Afghan children are still living in hell, how is it then that the African kids are still Aids ridden? Come on people, stop bullshitting.

Instead of organizing road shows, and making another comedy of your own speech (like when the DPM talks in public and sounded like as though the terminator is farting from his throat), go organize a mercy flight to fly all the injured children and women in Palestine to be hospitalized in our hospitals and be nursed back to good health. Give them a home till they are safe to go back to their land.

Come on people, I could go on writing but you know what? I am BORED!!!!
