Gaza

With the new year (both 1430 and 2009), it seems that the current aggression of the Israeli state against the Palestinian civilians helps us grasp several concepts such as, resistance in the digital age, terrorism, Arab struggle, etc.

First, let's just summarize what happened,

The [Israeli] air strikes that began Saturday, in which Palestinians claim at least 280 people have been killed...

Copied from here.

Now a quick visit to Oxford dictionary, we read,

terrorist
noun a person who uses violence and intimidation in the pursuit of political aims.
DERIVATIVES terrorism noun

What does this make of Israeli government and army and all their supporters? Yep, you got it right.

Well, it seems they also find pleasure being terrorists.

Now, what are the Arab countries doing?
As for the Arab Kings and Princes and Whores (isn't that the English for عاهل?) they are also seeking more pleasure in serving their masters.

On the other hand, what are the Arab crowds doing?
The usual inefficient methods, protests and similar ineffective techniques that proved to be of no use. As for the Arab youth who can use the Internet, they can protest in more modern ways as well such as joining facebook groups with names like "Free Gaza", "Peace of Gaza", stuff of that sort... This is the birth of digital resistance my friends, if we get 1000 user to join "Free Gaza" facebook group, Israel will succumb.
