Condemn the Murderers!


I'm compelled to write about my disgust about the crime that's being committed against the Palestinians. The world is watching Israel committing murders after murders and yet the silence is deafening!

We are being fed with live news coverage and shown how the Palestinians have suffered and pained. Lives are destroyed, people killed and maimed by 'smart' weapons. These are murders committed in broad daylight; by a push of a button and voila! Enjoy the fireworks!

What is the UN doing? What is our Government doing? The NGOs or anybody can send in as many memorandum as they want but as a Nation, our Government MUST make a stand and condemn this crime against humanity. The US; being the Satan's State main ally must get its lapdog to stop raining missiles on the Gaza immediately. The US is not doing its image any good for its continual support for the Regime. It's a safe bet to say that US is the most hatred country in the world. Good Luck Obama!

There are people calling for a boycott on US made produce and currency. For me, that's not the answer. It'll actually do more harm than good. Just think about it. We can stop drinking Coke; it's unhealthy anyway, stop wearing Timberlands and Nikes. We can go without McDonald's and KFC. But have we ever thought about our own economy and the jobs that might be loss? How many Nikes and Timberlands are made in the States? F&N can close shop but what about the people working there? McD and KFC can pack-up and go but what about the waiters and waitresses? These are Malaysians and looking at the bleak econ, a boycott will be a very bad idea.

So, a boycott is not the answer. It'll not pain the US but ourselves. What the world needs now is a united front to condemn the Israelis' air strikes and also the Hamas to do its part. We need everyone to come to their senses. Killing, suicide bombing and maiming is never going to work. The world has enough suffering to deal with already.

Please work together. We owe it to our future generations. Be fair to them!
