Breastfeeding is not Obscene

So, it is as silly as it is.
I was online, and I saw that a friend of mine joined this event Mothers International Lactation Campaign M.I.L.C.. I was curious, thus I looked it up. I was surprised when I read about what was it about.

Apparently, FB thinks that posting breastfeeding pictures are obscene, and not suitable for many users.. . How silly, right? I have seen couple of things on different occasions that, I think are very obscene, yet you never see or hear FB making a big deal of them, terminating people' accounts, and deleting their posts. Unlike these dirty pictures that need to be terminated, breastfeeding pictures are beautiful, and nothing is absence about them. How sick of people to think dirty of a breastfeeding. There is nothing sexual about it. It is a beautiful, nurturing, and normal! Didn't their mothers tell them that?

I think that all FB' defending statements regarding the issue are very hypocritical. They need to start taking such action and attitude toward other things but breastfeeding - derogatory pictures, and groups that promotes nothing but absence material and values.

Obviously, what good values represent differ greatly these days, in a sad way.. .

All Roads Lead To Rome?

Since I couldn't get creative to brainstorm for my upcoming paper, I have decided to get creative blogging. Nothing big this time- assuming you read my previous post.
So, there has been this interesting quote/statment that I kept on hearing/seeing on different occasions: "I believe all roads lead to Rome (or wherever, you choose"

Humm, first time I heard it, I couldn't help but this: yeea nO!
I didn't really give it much thoughts. I don't even know if I should. But seeing it more than once had me thinking: Do all roads lead to Rome?!
I honestly tend to think not so.. . However, I do think that it may get you close..!
I like the first part, but I don't know about the second one: ( or where ever, you choose)

So any road would have two ends? But I do feel like the statement sound a bit paradox to me! I bet that I am making sound like a dilemma.
Perhaps I need more clarification on it.However,I am certain that this may relate to faith and spirituality... .

Any thoughts? All roads are good?

A War For The Better/ The Effect of War

Most of us heard about the so called the "war for the better" Israel started on Gaza. I think that the media that I am following may be drastically different from the one most Americans follow. I watch uncensored media. A media that doesn't only censor bloody scenes, but one that doesn't censor the truth.
What is happening in Gaza is absolutely horrific and ghastly. It makes me so angry. No one is doing much about it. Israel is bombing the hell out of poor civilians. Powerless children,woman and families are being bombarded by rocks everyday. I am simply amazed. People preach about humanity and equality and a better world, and then this happens? Everybody is just watching! People are just shaking hands. Dire genocides are happening EVERYday in Gaza. Children have been losing their mothers,fathers, and siblings. Babies are dying. And what ticks me off is that America is yet supporting Israel murdering all these innocents souls. Aren't those poor Palestinians human? Don't they have the right to live a decent war free life? Why is it that when a white child or an american child die, the whole world goes crazy, and when hundreds and hundreds of poor Arab kids die, no one cares, and no one barely hear about it?
I am chocked. Some people seriously have no idea what is going on out there!

I have been involved in many discussion about this, and it simply irritates me when people tell me that I am only looking at one side of the story. How Israelis have their own side of this whole never ending conflict. You know what, I do not care. Most people don't know how it feels like: to live home and have people coming in raping their rights, killing their family, and burring their heritage . It wasn't long time a go when the Italians where in my home, Libya. They exile hundreds, hundreds, and hundreds of people. Woman have been raped and people were being brutalized in every possible way. They excluded many people from going to school and getting education. How would you feel if this happened to you, your parents, you grandparent, or great grandparents? Memories of wars are horrific.If it was me, I would fight to the death. Fight for my right, my dignity, my home. Those poor Palestinians have been putting up with this since ever and ever. How could people blame those kids for throwing rocks?

Gaza war is doing nothing BUT continuing to fan the flames of antagonism and antipathy of Jews and Israels. And, then they label Muslims and Arabs as the terrorist? Have you seen the news?
Those Israels are so brutal, they didn't even allow the UN to provide humanitarian aid to the poor civilians. No Humanitarian crises, that is what Israel's foreign minister said. Apparently, according to her, when People have lost their homes, toddlers lost their families ;watched them dying direly, and have no appropriate medical care and power supply, it is NOT considered to be a humanitarian crises.

So, my friends, where is the humanity, peace, and equality for all that almost all governments are preaching about?
I understand that they would like to stop Hamas and captivate the heads of it, but seriously, do you just start miscellaneously bombing people to catch one person?
I am not siding for Palestinians just because I may share a lot with them. Well, that could be a factor, but, I have eyes, I have a brain. All I need is to think; to see the truth. Israel won't rest until they get rid of all Palestinians. It is not an attention of them to try to live peacefully with Palestinians. They are constantly pushing their buttons. They have their soldiers wandering around with their guns all over. Kids and woman are being called names, and having guns pointed at their faces. They are alienating them from all basic human rights. There are places in Palestine that merely have no power supply, water , and severely limited medical care.
Animals are being treated better than those Palestinians.

Just think; what if it has been your home? Your dad/Mam being mistreated and viciously have their homes,dignity, respect, and human rights taken away from them?...

Light a candle for those souls that had their blood shed away for the sake of a war for the better... .

What This Blog Is About

I have been meaning to start creating this blog for a while ago.
School has kept me quite busy. Anyway, I just started it and I am excited about it.
There are many topics and issues that I feel strongly about and have lots of interest to, and this blog is ought to be about them. I would like to share my experience and my view about different issues and topics, and at the same time, I am interested to know what YOU think about it and what is your view. Whether we agree or not is not the main goal - even though I got get really persuasive about my opinions, SOMEtimes!!- but it is to share and exchange perspectives and opinions.

Examples of such topics would be... prejudice, discrimination,culture, racial identity, education, nature VS nurture, psychology, and other global and socially controversial topics. I just HOPE that I could blog as much as I want!

I also feel strong about faith, spirituality, God, religion and similar topics. However, I won't include them in this blog. I have another blog where I am exclusively devoted to write about these topics. However, probably some of my posts will have emphasize of some of these aspects.

I am looking forward to write more and read your views :)
