Yacoubian Building

Sometime ago I got to watch the great screwed up movie of Yacoubian Building and I can’t manage but ask one question. What the fuck does the author, director and all the actors in this movie aim at?

So apparently everyone who read this book went crazy about it, the great book, the great story, the what the fuck were they all talking about? This is simply a porno in disguise. Apparently the great Egyptian movie should not be allowed for people above 50 and not above 18, apparently this is not a movie to be shot in Egypt, apparently this is everything against customs and traditions. Let’s see.

First of all this movie is the kind of movie that tells the viewer that the Egyptian community is a community of horny, drunken idiots who care about stuff of minor importance, idiots, sex addicts, something that does not hold true, and something that people in other Arab countries seem to think of Egypt all the time cause the Egyptian media and what it injects in the minds of those people. I have never seen the media of a community working so hard on tainting the image of that community except for the Egyptian media and the idiots in Egypt he applaud for no apparent reason whatsoever.

I will not ruin the despicable, joke of a movie for you but I will just say in the loudest voice I have: I fucking object to this….

Memories – The Motion Picture

Welcome to my Hollywood, welcome to a place where a script I write now turns you into a movie star with lots of fans and shit loads of green. Do you remember Cuba Gooding Jr. in ‘Jerry Maguire’? Remember that scene where Cuba Gooding Jr. yells “Show me the green”? Now if you imagine the following scenes in your head the way they are meant to be imagined you are gonna know that they are no less good for a motion picture than ‘Jerry Maguire’ or maybe even ‘The Godfather’ and ‘Once Upon A Time In America’, these being my two favorites of all times.


The following movie is classified under the genres of Romance, Thrillers, War and Horror if you care to know in advance.


Unfortunately we have tried to modify the following motion picture from its original version in order that it fits your TV screen but failed since modifying it in that sense would actually lead to having no movie at hand.


This movie is rated ‘R’ for extreme Gore and Violence and both partial and full nudity of men, women and children.


Segment ‘1’: Home Is Where My Kids Play Around:


Credits:


You are Yourself
She (He) is Your Wife (Husband)
He is Your Four Years Old Son
She is your 16 years old Daughter
A Second He is your 20 years old Son
A Second She is your eldest Daughter (23 years old)


Segment Scenario:


You have come home after a long day of work, you are exhausted but the looks and smiles of your kids are making your day feel much better, in fact a lot better. As you walk in you shout in your usual joyful tone, ‘Honey I am home’ and your wife answers back as she walk towards you, ‘And I have been waiting for you the whole day’. She gives you a peck when your eldest daughter walks in and smiles seeing his two parents so in love after 24 years of marriage with their ups and downs. The ups were great, who would ever hate the ups and well the downs, they all ended in victory of love and faith in this relationship that yielded these four fruits and apples of your eyes.


Allow me to introduce the rest of the cast to you; you wouldn’t care to know who the actors and actresses are as much as you would care to know what roles they play in the magnificent motion picture and remember you have got to do your best in this role, you are the lead and if you do well, we have great chances with the rest.


Your 23 years old daughter is your first born; born one year after your marriage to your wife she brought a great joy to your life. Well you are now 50 and seems like you have got married quite young but you have never regretted it for a second or did you? I don’t think so, if I say you are happy then you stick to the Screen Play. I am the writer and I am the director here. Well your eldest daughter is getting married in a few days and you are very sad she is leaving of course, you will miss your first born around. You have a Steve Martin, father of the bride kind of feeling. Well, hope your wife is a Diane Keaton, a Young Diane Keaton.


Your second born was a boy, he is 20 years old and almost graduated from the university and you know he is gonna make you proud when he graduates to become the doctor he always wanted to be and you well always wished he would be too.


Your third is a daughter in High School, she gets great grades every single year and you know she is gonna make it great this year and she is gonna make it through to join the faculty of Engineering and graduate a telecommunication engineer, like she dreams.


Finally, a four years old son is just starting his naughty days, you know those days in which you love him when he is asleep and you keep kissing his cheeks and feel a little bit like kicking him when he is awake but at the end of the day he is your son you can’t put him on sale, plus no one is gonna buy and you know it…


You all gather at the dinner table, you are living the Steve Martin role, you could never imagine someone is gonna take away your daughter but you have to understand and you are starting to and suddenly out of no where you all hear a weird sound outside your house. And as you walk towards the door a few armed bandits rush in and they open fire at everyone including yourself. You all fall down.


A couple of days later you wake up wrapped in a lot of whatever medical bullshit and having glucose and blood injected into you through those hanging thingies with bags of whatever your body needs and you ask about your wife and kids…


The last you remember is seeing them all bleeding after they have all been shot. And now you get the news, they are all dead, they were dead at gun point, why do they call it gun point, why wouldn’t they call it fucking death point?


Segment ‘2’: TV Time:


Credits:


You are Yourself
Also starring other characters on your 61” TV


Segment Scenario:


You have just finished watching your favorite hockey team win a match. You loved it, your team rocks mate. But what after watching that match, you are now suffering the never ending boredom of having free time, and you know not how to invest such extra time.


You start switching channels, nice thing you have done there, organized TV channels, you know it is exactly like organized crime, you know, the Music Channels, the Entertainment Channels, the Sports Channels, The Porn – Hmm, Grr, Entertainment Channels again I mean, and then some Scientific and Educational Channels and then finally the News Channels.


You go through them all and you settle at the news… That hot weather chick is looking nice today, great teddies, lovely miniskirt, you wish you could see her in a two piece swimming suit (wonder why they still call it that though, it is called a bikini anyways) and well you wish you would be dating her right now, don’t you?


You switch to another news channel and there it is, a local news channel where you hear a news reporter say, “Today in an unusual turn of political events, the X-fucking country had named our civilization a civilization of terrorists and has given our government a period of one month within which the government should give in and give up all our nation’s resources or else they shall be invading our lands and they shall be attacking severely”.


What the hell do these people want? You start thinking of what you jus heard on TV, all you do in your life is work, hangout with friends, watch hockey teams and occasionally have a girlfriend who dumps you usually only on the second date. Your father was nothing different than you are except that he was stuck with a date for life with your mother, kind of a fate thingy that he couldn’t ever get out of.


You keep wondering through the night how life will be when the invasion comes. You are scared to death I have to say and anyone can see it in your eyes. You try to sleep and you succeed not because you are peaceful and trouble-less (Call that a word) but because you need to sleep cause you know sometime soon, the sound of a war right in your home will make you lose sleep and probably forever.


Segment ‘3’: The Wedding:


Credits:


You are Yourself
She (He) is Your Bride (Groom)
He is Your Father
Another She is Your Mother
They are your Brothers and Sisters
Another Group are your Friends


Segment Scenario:


Imagine it is your wedding day, you just said I do, and you are walking down the aisle so happy along with your bride. You are moving around with her. She looks at you with that smile that tells you, that you are gonna be happy ever after with her and that nothing can ever change that. You keep moving around the place and people keep congratulating you. Everyone is celebrating your biggest victory; making a life for yourself that hopefully shall last until death do you part…


You keep moving around and she walks up to you and whispers in your ears, “I love you,” and you feel the world is dancing in joy for your joy, you feel like kissing her but you are just so embarrassed to be all kissing and shit as if you are a horny bastard but you then remember that not kissing her right at that moment is not that much of a problem cause you are just starting a life time of kissing. You look at her like you are telling her tonight will be a crazy night full of kissing, maybe not just kissing, but more…


All that is happening, when suddenly you hear the sound of planes covering over the sound of the music in your wedding and then you hear bombing somewhere close. Everyone starts to panic and you run around to grab your parents and family after you agree with the wife you just married to meet you at the exit after she has found her family members amidst all that panic…


You run around and suddenly the bombs hit the place and everything falls apart and you manage somehow to escape the fate and run out of the place. You fall unconscious on the ground and when you come back from your unintended sleep you find your family, your bride’s family and your bride dead… Your bride has lost her wedding dress, she is nude, and the wedding dress has been partially burnt and partially torn apart by the bombing…


Your family members have been burnt down into ashes like they are some kind of tobacco or something, and well the lucky ones are your friends who have been disfigured where they stood in you wedding You sit there and you cry in pain, you have lost the family that was and the family that would have been. You look up at the sky and wish you were dead. And that’s where your staring role ends.

The End

Now since I believe that every movie should have a message to deliver and a lesson to teach what do you think the lesson learnt from this Segment of our movie should be?
- Should it be something like ‘Never invite too many people to your fucking wedding because it is harder to escape if it gets fucking bombed’?
I think this would be a funny one, so if we are gonna use it we need to add the Comedy Genre to this movie’s categories.
- Should it be if someone slaps you, turn your other fucking cheek to him?
That would be so fucking stupid and ignorant I guess cause if someone slaps me I slap back and I slap hard, and if he slaps again then it would seem like he didn’t learn and I would fuck his life up for as long as he lives.
- Should it be never let your rights go, and never be weak to allow someone to attack you all of a sudden and take you by surprise on your wedding day or any other day for all that matter?
I guess that could be the one, or one of many.
- Should it be “Imagine yourself in place of the people who lose their families everyday in places like Lebanon and then you will fucking know what I am talking about and you will feel their pain and you will start becoming more human and understanding that countries like the terrorizing & inhumane Israel and its supporting United States Government are nothing but pigs who just eat filth and love to feed and live on that kind of filth and nothing more?”
I guess that is another lesson good enough.


I think the last two morals should slide into the screen as morals for our movie and then the credits for this segment should come down signifying the end of a Segment and well the end of the entire movie.


Well I am sorry, but you will never star in this movie, and you will not see the green and you will never get rich. Some movie association has stopped us from shooting this movie as a result of its content. No, it wasn’t the gore, and no, not the intense war sequences, and no, not the nudity, and no, nothing of what you think led to their stopping us from shooting the movie. This movie has not been shot because they need us silenced; because they need to feed us their bullshit and they need to have us hypnotized at all times only believing them and only listening to their lies. This is the fundamental reason.


Yeah I have written a screenplay and yeah I have lost time getting it all ready and yeah, it means a lot to me to have this work but I knew I would fail, and also who else in this world gives a rat’s ass about my movie?

And I know I promised you a great role, I promised you fame, but if governments promise you peace and fail and if they promise you democracy and lie, and if they convince you that things that never existed actually existed and things that never happened actually happened and if they convince you that the culprits in every crime are the people who resemble the enemy of the real culprits and if they convince you that Nazis are Victims and that black is white, will you blame me for not giving you your lead role and your movie… Blame me if you want to, I already gave up on you all since long ago…


(Note: The movie you just watched and/or starred in is based on true events and incidents in countries you may have visited or not, resided in or not, in countries and with humans you may or may not care about. Please be advised that whatever the end of this movie seemed like, this shall never be the end, no one shall lose his/her rights forever. Those people who had been building up the hatred of those they attack shall suffer the fury of their victims and the rage shall be uncontainable and the day shall come when every drop of blood of a woman or old person and every tear of a child or mother shall be paid for in full and in equivalents).

Outraged

Suddenly I am outraged, I am watching the news on TV and reading the news headlines and checking out the pictures and I am really outraged… I thought I couldn’t be more angry and pissed at everything all around, at the world, at Israel’s attacks that cannot be described as terrorist attacks because apparently they have exceeded that… And I manage to do nothing but wonder, what is the benefit of all this, what is the end of the greed and the pointless losses of innocent lives just because some government wants to extend its plots and lands?

The attacks on the Venezuelan president’s opinion and point of view are more outraging than anything else. Just because the man gave an honest opinion he has been attacked all over the world and obviously over the Internet… How dare he call the Israeli actions, actions of Nazis, you know he should call the muslims terrorists and maybe throw a few curses at Islam to spice his speech up but call the Israeli government Nazis, how dare he? Well he dared and despite the attack on his opinion is the more apparent everywhere I tend to find that the Venezuelans and indeed the South Americans support his opinions and believe in the man big time regardless of what many others and countries try to do by calling him a destroyer of the Venezuelan peace and economy…

To those people out there who believe Chavez has crossed a line through what they call “OUTRAGEOUS COMMENTS”, prove first that all that is happening in Lebanon now is not more bloody than the killing of Jews by Hitler in the Holocaust and I would believe it… Just don’t insult my intelligence by stupid reasons cause I am no more in a place where I can buy the bullshit I may have bought maybe a couple of years ago…….

What keeps hitting me most is that it keeps coming from out there on the other side and other end of the world, it just keeps coming from the Venezuelan president who is far away who would actually have more peace of mind if standing against the Lebanese and with the least care to what’s happening over there, but well, HONORABLE MEN STILL EXIST SOMEWHERE ON THE SURFACE OF THIS PLANET.

And to prove that the greed and murder never ends, Israel approved on wednesday what news websites and news channels called “wider offensives in lebanon” and which I would love to call “expansion of the murder plot and terrorist attacks”…

I have heard and read opinions about how the “Victimized Israel” (LOL – Sorry this kind of bullshit gets me all tickled and full of laughter) is just defending itself against those who hate it and hate Israelis. Well, if Israel is hated by some people it is not cause people just wake up in the morning planning to hate it but because of its actions and well I as a human being know some people hate me, it is human nature, love exists and hate exists at two ends of a continuum of liking people and well the question is, should I go on murdering people who hate me at work and people who may not like me much in some places I go to? What kind of fucking logic is that? Well Victimized My ASS…

I mentioned this once and I will mention it again:

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
من اجل ذلك كتبنا على بني اسرائيل انه من قتل نفسا بغير نفس او فساد في الارض فكأنما قتل الناس جميعا ومن احياها فكأنما احيا الناس جميعا
صدق الله العظيم

And Well, finally a few messages I wanna send out here:

Thanks Mr. Hugo Chavez for having the guts to say what I discovered that a lot of people think, Musims and Christians, Arabs and Non-Arabs, apparently through browsing the Internet I discoeverd today that this is the opinion of even some people in the USA too… So thanks for doing the work that others had no courage to do…

Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah, I bow in respect… Don’t let your land go, don’t let go of a principle, this is your honour and pride you are defending…

And well I will end it with this:

ياايها الذين امنوا اذا لقيتم فئة فاثبتوا واذكروا الله كثيرا لعلكم تفلحون
‏واطيعوا الله ورسوله ولاتنازعوا فتفشلوا وتذهب ريحكم واصبروا ان الله مع الصابرين

ياايها الذين امنوا استعينوا بالصبر والصلاة ان الله مع الصابرين‏
ولاتقولوا لمن يقتل في سبيل الله اموات بل احياء ولكن لاتشعرون
ولنبلونكم بشئ من الخوف والجوع ونقص من الاموال والانفس والثمرات وبشرالصابرين

‏الذين اذا اصابتهم مصيبة قالوا انا لله وانا اليه راجعون‏اولئك عليهم صلوات من ربهم ورحمة واولئك هم المهتدون

The Major, The Minor

Looking at a map of the world, counting the countries, counting the existing governments I cannot do anything but wonder as to how everyone is just watching. People have become sort of programmed to say ‘YES’ and applaud to every fraudelent attempt to fuck up safety and peace, and I am not talking about world peace and shit, cause that my friends does not exist…

I am talking about the peace of mind that regardless of what governments do and what dictators decide some people wish to keep… A living room, a couple of bed room, a loving wife (husband), respectful well-bred children and a secure job. Apparently this is what lots of people need and wish for, what some have and are thankful for and apparently wars, political gains and economic bullshit is not what they care for…

May 1948 – Jews invade Israel and along with a few bullshiters all over the world decide to deny the Palestinians their simplest right, freedom.

June 1967 – Israel invades Egypt and succeeds for a while before getting kicked the hell out of there in October 1973.

July 2006 – Israel invades Lebanon and decided to play its very same old game… The role of the bloddy vampire who feeds on the blood of others. Well I thought vampires only existed in ‘Interview with the Vampire and the like’.

October 2001 – The USA invades Afghanistan after a whole story has been prepared explaining to the American public how muslims are terrorists and how Islam is the devil’s religion and how the cause for 911 was the Afghani Government.

March 2003 – The USA invades Iraq after wiping out the idea of Aghanistan being behind the events of 911 and throwing the blame at the Saddam Hussein. And well, the invasion also occured after convincing the American Public that this will save the Iraqi poeple from the merciless rule of a blood thirsty president.

A few questions that come to my mind as soon as I remember these events:

1. Weren’t a lot of Iraqis killed in the US attacks and I mean a lot of innocent women and kids holding no weapons?

2. If the US government gave a shit about Iraqis and their welfare wouldn’t it be logical that they shouldn’t have actually made it harder for them to find nutritional material in the pre-war years?

3. Why don’t we see that much advancement in Afghanistan or Iraq in the post-liberation eras?

4. Why is Iraq about to fall into a graveyard of civil war casualties and would that have ever happened during Saddam’s reign?

5. Why does the US government try to make every muslim hate the guts of their country?

6. Why does the US government try to point to everything Islamic as a source of terror and chaos?

7. Is the US government telling the truth about the events of 911?

8. Was Israel behind 911 just to screw up the arabs and muslims the same way as in their Susanah Operation in 1954 in Egyot against American Offices?

9. Is Israel to be trusted with peace?

10. Should we cry when we hear about what Germany did to the Jewish Families (Current Israelis) when today the Israelis do the same?

11. Is Hezbollah even the reason why Israel started its invasion?

12. Should we be ‘Pro-USA’ and ‘Pro-Israel’ and if we become so should we just forget what and who we were and be ‘Pro-Everything They Do’?

13. Who’s next?

14. When is Egypt’s turn in this fucking plan?

15. Will I have to see my family dead someday by the weapons of those some fellow country men applaud for?

And finally the question that bugs me the most: Is Peace Still An Option? Is It Possible?

And well the answer is no. I want back every child who was martyred in these wars before I could accept peace. I want them back or I wouldn’t accept peace, I want them back or all the bullshit treaties written on paper between governments are just pure crap to me and another source of our weakness and another sign of our inability to defend our lives.

I guess it is pretty obvious by now why governments are either bloody or not caring for the average Joe, the citizens of their countries:

Apparently these governments majored in Economics and/or Political Sciences and minored in Ethics….

And when it comes to Ethics they should have known more and read more, or that’s at least what I guess they need to do….

Why are we amazed

Why do I see this surprise when Israel kills children in Lebanon like it is the first time? They happen to do the same everyday in Palestine, and even if we consider Palestine an actual enemy to Israel and if we assume that Israel is just protecting its ass (Although not a convincing reason for the killing of children), they happened to do the same in Egypt in April 1970….

This is just a reminder that Israel is no city of angels aiming at peace.

مجزرة بحر البقر

تاريخ المجزرة : 8 ابريل 1970

المجزرة :استشهاد 30 تلميذا مصريا بالمرحلة الابتدائية

الشهداء : تلاميذ مدرسة بحر البقر في محافظة الشرقية

القاتل : اسرائيل

الوسيلة طائرات الفانتوم الامريكية الصنع

Title: Bahr-El Baqar Massacre.

Date: April 8th, 1970.

The Massacre: The martyrdom of 30 Egyptian Students (Primary School Students).

The Martyrs: Students of Bahr El-Baqar School in Al Sharqeya Governorate.

The Murderer: Israel.

The Method: Phantoms (Made in USA)

If anyone thinks Israel aims at peace then guess again cause the aim was always to hit where it hurts regardless of any moral issues. To make peace, you need to have ethics and integrity, you need to have principle and if you lack it you can never go through with peace even if you claim to want it….

Israel is marching deeply into Lebanon and the world stands still… And the Arab World watches on TV…. How weak and pitiful….

This was just a reminder that we never learn from History although it keeps repeating itself… It is just that we never listen…

GENUINE PEACE OR PEACE ON PAPER?

Qana II – How To Become A Monster?

I heard the news about Qana last night. I got to read over other blogs and over various websites reflecting the news. The Zionists have exceeded their limits. If killing people needed a credit card, I guess it would be safe to say that the Israeli army have maxed-out theirs.

I woke up this morning to read the news again, but this time in the local news papers here and it felt more real. It felt more painful than it felt last night. 57 were brutally murdered yesterday during the Israeli attack on Qana out of whom 32 (approximately 56%) were children. If Israel was a serial killer it would have had more heart.

Israeli Rabbis Claim: the Torah allows the assassination of women and children in Gaza and Lebanon….

The council of rabbis in occupied West Bank invited Israeli government to order the killing of the civilians in Lebanon and Gaza, referring to the Torah which they claim allows the killing of children and women during wartime. According to Saudi newspaper “Al Riyadh” of Tuesday 18/7/2006, the seventh Israeli channel referred to the statement issued by the meeting of the rabbis’ council saying that every person who feels sorry for the Lebanese and children from Gaza is a person that looks at the Israeli children in a savage way. The statement asked the Israeli government to order the killing of the Lebanese and Palestinian civilians since they are allies of the enemy.

This is what morals represent to Israel, a liability and a reducer of morale. This is Israel in its real unholy war, dressed in its blood stained dress.

Wake up Arabs. Make a move not for the sake of religion, not for the sake of God. Make a move for the sake of justice and for the sake of your very own morals that don’t anymore seem important to you or anyone else, your blood is being wasted. We want the murderers brought down or our children back….

Wake up Arabs…. They are murdering your children… And if you think they want peace then I’ll agree but afterall I will have to tell you this Genuine Peace is not it, it is Peace On Paper that they want…..

The Susanah Operation

Are we even sure that the culprit is always an Arab Muslim Terrorist? Could some bombings be just plans to implicate those Arabs, those with the religion some countries try to prove as a terrorist religion although it invites to peace and although the word they use for “Hello” is “Peace”?

Did anyone ever hear of the Lavone affairs. Can we even be sure that the hotels in different cities of Egypt are bombed by Muslims, even Egyptains.

In 1954, Israeli agents working in Egypt planted bombs in several buildings, including a United States diplomatic facility, and left evidence behind implicating Arabs as the culprits. The ruse would have worked, had not one of the bombs detonated prematurely, allowing the Egyptians to capture and identify one of the bombers, which in turn led to the round up of an Israeli spy ring.

The story starting with the new Egyptian post-revolution government led by Jamal Abdul Naser trying to import weapons from the American Government in order to enhance the Egyptian army to be able to defend the country against any future attacks. That was a couple of years after Egypt’s independence from the British Occupation.

Quoted from: http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/lavon.html

Some of the spies were from Israel, while others were recruited from the local Jewish population. Israel responded to the scandal with claims in the media that there was no spy ring, that it was all a hoax perpetrated by “anti-Semites”. But as the public trial progressed, it was evident that Israel had indeed been behind the bombing. Eventually, Israeli’s Defense Minister Pinhas Lavon was brought down by the scandal, although it appears that he was himself the victim of a frame-up by the real authors of the bombing project, code named “Operation Susannah.”

It is therefore a fact that Israel has a prior history of setting off bombs with the intent to blame Arabs for them.

This is not the only example of a “False Flag” operation designed to trick the United States into attacking Israel’s enemies. According to Victor Ostrovsky, a Mossad defector now living in Canada, Ronald Reagan was tricked into bombing Libya by means of a radio transmitter smuggled into Tripoli by the Mossad, which broadcast messages designed to fool the United States into thinking Libya was about tolaunch a massive terror attack on the west. On the basis of this fake evidence, the US bombed Libya, killing Khadaffi’s daughter.

The Jews of Iraq is a story by a Jewish writer revealing yet another false flag operation where Israelis used bombs and planted the blame on Arabs.

More recently, Captain Ward Boston, who served as senior legal counsel for the Navy’s Court of Inquiry into the Israeli attack on US Liberty, has come forward to report that the Court of Inquiry was ORDERED to conclude that the attack was an accident by President Lyndon Johnson. In hindsight, given the use of unmarked aircraft and boats by Israel during the actual attack, it appears that Israel intended to sink the US ship and frame Egypt for the attack, tricking the US into the war against Egypt.

This website views a complete conclusion or let’s call it a proposed theory regarding what happens now and all activities that are addressed to Muslims as terrorist attacks.

Before I end this post, I will just add to the information I grabbed from this website what I actually know about “Operation Susanah”:

1. Israel refuses to disarm itself or reduce its military power while it tries its best to stop any country from advancing forward. And that’s basically why Israel worked on the bombing of American offices in Cairo and Alexandria.
2. Israel’s basic plan was to blame the Sussanah Opeartions on “Ikhwan Muslimeen” specially after they started having good relationships with the Egyptian Government.

It is pretty possible that history maybe repeating itself… Maybe arabs and muslims are not after all the source of terrorism… Maybe it is all a bigger scam… Maybe it is just a plan that started in 1947 in Palestine and extended to 1954, a plan of stabbing in the back just when you least expect it…

Beware before you form an opinion, beware before you point fingers.. Think bigger… Read history and then start assessing blame… Get enlightened before you all get led behind a couple of words we all heard today… Remember that everyone’s past is his/her identity…

And beware of not being fair while you judge without looking for a moment at the past, that is if fair’s what you want…

Tears Over Gotham City

Cruel days andEmpty nights…
I am losing my patience…
I am losing my powers…
I want my bat-mobile back…

They tell me it is being fixed at the mechanic’s but well I know they sold it for what I can only call a very cheap and unreasonable price. They sold it out to people who know nothing about the sentimental value my bat-mobile represents. The city of Gotham is falling in the hands of jokers, there are many of him now all aiming at one goal total destruction of goodness and morals. I hate to see people wait for me when I know i can’t help.. But I still wouldn’t confirm or admit that the jokers have won.

I ask and demand an answer given to me: What happened to all those people who turned into jokers? Why are they dressed in those suits of an inconsistent, inharmonious array of colors? Why do they have their faces painted in that disgusting way? Why did they give in to the enemy and allow him to feed on the misery and blood of their Gotham families and friends?

The sky is pouring tears over my head And amidst the bloodshed, no one knows that batman is now dead…

And the only question and the only worry that remains is: Where are they leading us to and what are they planning for you Gotham City?

Her last words were ‘Promise?’

I am sitting here. I am cleaning my rifel’s tube and shining my knife. I know I will need them although I am not sure I still know how to use them. But I know I was born to defend my life and the lives of those I love and I am sure I still have it in me. I leave this place I am staying in since they released me from prison and I get on the back of my horse and head back home, the home that must have changed a lot since the enemy burnt it down years ago in a battle that have been based on lies and deception.

And as I cross the valleys the memories race by. I remember how the elders of our little village called for a meeting that morning, how I was sent to negotiate the enemy for the lives of my people, how I had a beautiful wife and two kids… And then I remembered how it all ended up in war and ruins…

That morning I was in my bed minding my own business when my wife woke me up and asked me to head to the village council where I am to meet the elders of the city to discuss a very important issue. She knew not what that issue was all about, all she knew was a messenger dropped by and asked for my prompt response to an invitation by the elders to attend the council..

When I arrived there I was told by the village’s chief that we were to be attacked by the citizens of the surrounding villages. They told me that it was our turn. For years they have taken over lands and taken away rights that they were not entitled to and today it was our turn. I was told by the elders that they are raising an army and I was told that we wanted peace, all we wanted was peace and our freedom.

I was then asked to go to the elders of those people, there is one in every village and I could talk to any one of them but if I wanted to do it best and get our peace I had to go to the eldest figure they had. It was a duty I owed to my family, my people and to home. I left with no weapons, I went to preach a message of peace.

When I arrived at my destination they have already known I was coming… They were waiting for me to arrive and they were kind I have to be honest. They gave me food and wine. And they treated me with great respect. But that respect ended when a conversation started. I spoke to the eldest man of these people.

I told him that I come in peace and he implied that would mean that we would give in our village without resistance. I asked if there was any particular reason we should give in and he asked me, “Didn’t you say you came for peace?”

Me: “I came for peace and our freedom.”

Him: “Then you have to submit to our armies. We too come in peace, we don’t want the blood shed.”

Me: “There will be no blood shed if we agree to peace and peace to us is you leaving us alone and we reciprocating.”

Him: “Peace will be there when we remove the threats to our community.”

Me: “And you call us threats?”

Him: “You are, you don’t like us and you would always be a threat and unless we guarantee our safety, we will always be subject to your wild attacks.”

Me: “But we are not even that strong, we don’t have the power you have, how would you be threatened by a weaker community of peaceful people. And don’t you tell me we don’t like you because we are not forced to, you are a bunch of cons, pirates you may say, who came along and took over the lives of innocent people and then claimed that their lands and lives belonged to them. Why would we like you?”

Him: “You admit it that you hate us, to us it is a threat and to that the only peace I could offer is not shedding blood if your people give up.”

This argument kept going on for hours, I was determined to achieve what I was sent to achieve but I couldn’t. Those people were out of order and they wanted everything and I saw it since the first moment.

As I was leaving on my way back home the head of their army looked at me and said in an ordering tone: “Tell your people to submit to us or war it shall be.”

All I did was reply: “I will see you in the battle field.”

As I left I knew they gave orders to their armies to move. We didn’t rest on my way back, not me, not my horse. And when I arrived I told them what I have heard and they were as dignified as I was to give in to those people. They would never accept that option. For war we prepared and that was how it all really started, that is what got me here.

It was not a war for any hidden political reasons. We did not go for it for more land or for denying anyone their freedom. All we did was march out to meet an enemy and defend our land, defend our identity, defend what we stand for, defend our families, our food and our lives…

The battle was not fair, they had ten times the military power we had. The town was burnt down. My wife and kids were killed and those who escaped were a minor group…

Today I am going back home to see the ruins of what I once called my own cottage. Today I seek to remember how simple life was cause it is not that simple anymore.

As I arrive there I see many houses have been rebuilt, but that’s not what makes the place different. What makes the place different is that the people I know are no more there, the people I know have died and the few left are fugitives away from their own land.

I know one day I will see them again in the battle field and I know I am gonna fight them and I know some people think it is an old story. A story of twenty years. My home is not there anymore but I remember where exactly it was and I am gonna come back and I am gonna make my wife and kids proud of me in their graves…. And let them call me a criminal… I am just in it for the truth… I am just in it for the honour I swore to keep for life…

And for my lost Identity…..

Where are our beliefs?

Still wanting to ask a question before I go ahead…. What parts of Religion do we believe in or do we take only what suits our beliefs and then throw the rest behind our backs?

Mech here is what I think:

I agree. Of course a statistic on some forum does not represent the Lebanese population. However, by the same criteria you, and I, criticize shlemazl’s answer, we should also criticize your own.

This, too, does not prove anything whatsoever. First, it’s a small sample just like shlemazl’s statistic. Second, these are Lebanese people in Dubai as you explained. How can we say that the opinions of 60 Lebanese in Dubai reflect, or even indicate, the position of the Lebanese as a whole?

What I know for sure dude is most of the Lebanese Muslims are Shi’a and they all support Hizbullah and even the Sunnah does too.. And hence we are talking about more than half the population and then some Christians do to so where are we now, did we count more than half Lebanon…. Well, that’s about it…

Nobody. Unfortunately, these are the rules of our world. If you have power, you can somewhat dictate what others do. I am sure this was the case with the Roman Empire, Greek, and even the Muslim Empire.

The Muslim empire had fairness in it… Every single non-muslim king mourned the death of men like Omar bin Abd El Azeez and every single non-muslim swore to the fairness of a man like Salah Ed-Din Al Ayoubi…. Bush is no this or that…..

Prove to me that this land belongs to the Palestinians! Why do you call it their and? Let’s be objective for a second and forget that the Palestinians might look like us more than the Jews do. That is how we can be fair… neutral. The thing is you can’t prove it’s a Palestinian land and you can’t prove it’s Israeli. However, Israel, I believe, is ready to give up some land for peace, but the Palestinians want the whole thing. I say let’s find a way to divide this land between the two.

Well Mech Crowds, I will not talk about history, about “Bani Israel” have always been a source of trouble even to Moses (PBUH)… I will not talk about how they now want to take portions of Medina because of historical bullshit but if you think they should then I am not the person you should be discussing this with either… And you wanna know where I get the rules I dictate from dude? From your religion… Read and believe and if you have an objection to what that religion says I think again I am not the one you should discuss it with… Cause simply I would then not know what kind of beliefs do you have… And I seriously wouldn’t want to know cause I am not planning on seeing an ugly picture… And if Israel comes and stays on our lands for fifty years will you ask me to find a way to divide it between both parties?

Now that I want an answer for cause if you will then this is just a useless conversation… And if you won’t then know this… Moses was born in Egypt, Bani Israel were basically in Egypt and that’s how the whole thing started so they will claim whatever they want later on and I will wanna see you responding to them then..

And dude, don’t talk to me about fair, go read some history and stop depending on the Israeli and American media as sources for your information… Read about the Israeli Palestinian conflict in history books… Read your Holy Book and then let’s discuss how it has no chance in hell to belong to Israel… If you could still assume that….

I don’t understand the question! If I’m right about what?

Again, right about what? When a group of people believe in something, it is no indication that that thing is true. This is not an argument for anything!
Of course, the Palestinians should work hard for peace, instead of suicide bombings against civilians.

Who ever accepts a wrong doing is himself some kind of sinner… Don’t you believe that “Alsaketo 3an el7aqi shaytanon akhras…” Let’s just not start defining civilians here cause it will be a dead end argument… And well I meant right about any political opinion you are giving here…

Why would Israel give land if it knows that the violence will continue no
matter what?

That depends if you view the terrorists as ‘muslims’ or not. Are the people bombing cafes, markets, and mosques in Iraq Muslims? The people bombing resorts in Egypt? The people bombing busses in Israel? The people that destroyed the WTC? If you think so, you can have this discussion with someone else, not me.

1500 years ago there were no muslims and 3000 years ago there were no jews but there were arabs then. I hate to bring the discussion back to what I can only describe as the dark ages..

Dude, I think some people are wrong I never said anything different yet I also think some have nothing else to do to prove a point and that’s why they go to extremes…. And that does not mean I support them but at least I give them an excuse… Don’t tell me you are so blinded to see the truth, don’t tell me you believe this Western shit man cause I hope not…

Again, same issue as before… I said very early on with my response to
Raven that this is the core of our difference.

So why is Israel there? Do you think Israel wants more land? That would not be a smart move and would bring more blood shed, and they know that. They want stability. Yes, they are just there for Hezbollah. Calling me brainwashed is not an argument.Ghandi did not get the British out of his land by terrorism.

If you believe Israel is there for any other reason than more land then you are just cheating yourself, they are there just for the same reason they were in Egypt over 30 years ago… Greed, Land, money, power, all that shot and if you think Israelis were that good believe me dude I would have applied for citizenship in the community of angels that you talk about here…

And Ghandi was not a muslim and India does not have a majority of Muslims… I hope I don’t have to explain this one further and that you get the hint…
