An Eye for an Eye, Will Make the World Totally Blind

My Palestinian friends started posting their faces half covered with their palms, on Insta. I asked Raed why and he shared a photo of a journalist who lost his left eye, assaulted by the Israeli army, in the ongoing Israeli oppression in Gaza.


Israeli killing innocent people is like watching the sun rise everyday. They do it without any remorse or conscience. They do it like how we do our daily chores. They just kill. They taunt the Palestinians in Gaza and West bank. They bomb Arabs in Syria. They do it freely because no one actually questions them. They do it because even the United States rallies behind them. They call others `savages' because to them anyone who is not from their faith are not human beings. 

Who are these Israelis? I actually did research online to see who Israelis are. Where did they get their mindset to kill at will? There is one commentary online which says Israeli nation is a fiction. Probably, because they exist only because of the Holy Land they occupy. Else, may be there would never be such a nation to begin with. The debate today, here is not to deliberate whether Israel is a nation or not. The question is why kill innocent people under the name of attacking Hamas hideouts? Why taunt civilians who protest for their right to live? When did any Israeli had to protest to be entitled to his own right to a life? Or any American? Or any Caucasisan? Because the whites probably think they are the lords of this world, so do the Israelis. 

Tun Mahathir said it right - The Arabs will retaliate as long as their attacked. Correct. Forget the Arabs, any race will retaliate as long as they are attacked. Some will retaliate in passive resistance, some in active resistance. This is the order in the lowest loka in creation. Human being oppress each other, like savages. So, Israelis are also savages, right?

In the latest bombing in Gaza, ceasefire prevailed for a short while when Hamas and the Jihadis agreed to stop any rocket attack, then again, think about it. Why did they launch the rocket fire in the first place? Because Israel attacked a Jihadi leader who was sleeping at home. 

In olden days in India, kings do go to war. And the rule of war was to never stab a person from the back. In fact, every family that sends a male member to war would go to the blood and body strewn war field to check how its representative male died - stabbed in the chest or the back. If the body is found to have injuries to the front, the body will be brought home for final rites. On the other hand, if death was due to injuries sustained in the back, any part of the back, that body will not be brought back. Families assume those who had died with wounds in the back to be cowards killed as they flee the war. And any soldier who attacks from behind would also be incarcerated. There was honour in war and killing then. You do not attack an unarmed man. A sleeping man would not be armed, so be a man and kill him on level playing field. The Israelis could not, so they killed a sleeping man. Likewise, an journalist is also unarmed, so why make him blind? For what purpose take his left eye? Did that make any Israeli God? Or Superior being? If shot in the head, be it an Arab or American or Chinese or Israeli would certainly die. That is how the mechanics is. So, why kill others? Why become the only terrorist nation in the world - Israel? Why take away something that you can't recreate, Israel - like life, eye sight, limbs etc? Didn't anyone tell you that if you attack, you will be attacked and no one wins - an eye for an eye makes the entire world blind and before you expect others to stop, you stop first. No one wants to live in a blind world, neither would you!

Ain't Goodbye, Dad!

Image
My dad passed away and I got thrown out of the family. Yeap, that happened.  On 2nd November, dad was admitted to a hospital about 150 kilometres away. Suddenly, a family Whatsapp group was created, I was added (!) and updates were made on his condition. It was pretty much assumed that he was dying and probably that hospitalization could be his last. I was deliberating to visit him because my car was not in the condition to travel far. Then, the news came that my sister who lives in the US was flying down. I figured I needed to visit him, in case that was his last hospitalization. And my Gaza muscle man said he can drive me to Malacca. Claudia, yeah, that's my car, did not have aircon then, it was under repair the preceding 18 months. So, it was a very hot 150 kilometres drive to Malacca and thank God Raed did not speed and could withstand the afternoon heat. I discovered later that the car was in no condition to speed. Dad was sleeping when I reached the hospital. The rest w

Living with the Virus - A New Beginning or Revisiting Olden Way of Life?

Image
The Facebook was swathed with memes about learning to live with the corona virus. One meme said it is like getting married, first you try to reign in your wife but after numerous attempts, you just learn to live with her and her ways - adapt. The same is said about the virus. A vaccine or even cure seems very far away, countries are trying to contain the spread - some going into lock down, others have started living with it from the beginning - Sweden. Sweden did not shut down its economy and ask people to stay home. No, life goes on as usual. Number of deaths was third highest in the world during the last count. But the economy did not shut down probably because someone had the foresight that humans on planet earth will have to learn to live with the virus until some kind of vaccine or drug is found. That's precisely what the Indian government has advised it's citizens - learn to live with the virus.  Though now a Muslim, I was a Hindu once. Hindu - does not relate to any reli

Success...The Father Who Made Winners, What's Your Excuse?

Image
Mention Gaza and one would imagine ruins littered in a city which would have thrived at one time in history. Governed by Hamas, it is a land 140 square miles (363 square kilometeres) wide along the Mediterranean Sea, northeast of the Sinai Peninsula. Embargoed by Egypt and the United States, controlled by Israel, import of goods including medicines are very limited. Basically, life there is a game of survival.  In this land which the war had torn apart, lives a man of steel who had made his three sons winners, in their own right. Yes, Dr Azir Shinpary, an expert in Physical Education and former President of the Palestinian Weightlifting Federation, had spent four years of his life in New Delhi, before returning to Gaza and rising into a renowned weightlifter, which eventually brought him to presidency of the federation . And in his course of life, has also moulded his elder son, Raed Shinpary into the first place winner of the Palestinian Bodybuilding Championship in 2016.
