Remembering the Gaza War
December 27th, 2008 Israel launched Operation Cast Lead which came to be known as the Gaza War.
Back in 2008 I knew next to nothing about Palestine, all I remember is my mother telling me and my siblings to pray for the people of Gaza because they were under a brutal attack and the images on the news were horrifying. So I prayed for these people that I didn’t know and went on with my day and...

Seriously. At least she does her research and spreads information instead of no-caption sensational pictures or melodramatic statements about Palestine that have no substance. She’s doing more good than any of you self-proclaimed die-hard “pro-Palestinians” which is a title you don’t deserve because you harm the cause with all your lies.
If you have an issue with what she...

An old post of mine-
Seriously, all previous documentry/book recommendations; they can wait. You can see those, read those later. THIS. Holy shit- this everyone needs to see NOW. The documentry is about children living in Gaza and how Operation Cast Lead, the Gaza war (2008-09) in which 1400 Palestinians (300-400 kids) died, affected them. Forget sides, zionism, and all political biases, ...

18th December, 2011
Years of rioting against Palestinians, uprooting of trees, vandalism, arson, destruction, dispossession, theft, rocks and axes didn’t cause a ripple, but one rock to the head of a deputy brigade commander made all the difference.
If I could, I’d send a modest bouquet of flowers as a gesture of thanks for the work of the rioters - the ones who infiltrated the ...
Okay I’ll stop live blogging my dad’s project appraisal :$
#boringblogisboring
But honestly this company was funny, who the fuck wakes up one day and thinks “LET’S START A PIPE MANUFACTURING COMPANY …even though I know nothing about pipes” and then hires senior management who also know nothing about the industry… #FAIL
I don’t get why they don’t just chuck this company- if a normal private citizen was this much trouble to a bank, actually scratch that, an individual that could potentially act like this wouldn’t be given a loan in the first place -_-“
Only 46% of the pipes this company makes are actually usable. The sadder part is that this is just one of the four types they were supposed to make and they can’t even get past the first.
“The project suffered due to Senior Management’s lack of experience in the Ductile Cast Iron Pipe Industry…”
WHAT ARE YOU PEOPLE DOING, WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS, YOU DON’T KNOW...
