Sept 30, 2000, 11th Memory of Muhammad Al-Durrah Martyre

On the second day of the Second Intifada, amid widespread rioting throughout the Palestinian territories. Jamal Al-Durrah and his 12-year-old son, Muhammad, were filmed by Talal Abu Rahma, a Palestinian cameraman freelancing for France 2, as they sought cover behind a concrete cylinder after being caught in crossfire between Israeli soldiers and Palestinian security forces. The footage, which lasts just over a minute, shows the pair holding onto each other, the boy crying and the father waving, then a burst of gunfire and dust, after which the boy is seen slumped across his father’s legs.

 Muhammed Al-Durrah is 23 years old…in heaven… I am only one among a nation that will  never forget.. will never forgive.

Don't let others influence your thoughts!

I don't always believe what I hear on television or on the internet, some people would rather spread news as soon as they hear it, than check it first.. how dump is that! Other people just like to enforce their opinions on others; just 'cause they're really sure they're right, or maybe they're just bossy. What really gets to me in this matter, is when -talking in a controversial matter- they don't hear the other sides of the story and just decide that this opinion -which happens to be their own before the conversation even began- is the right one, *it's just like a jury that made their mind about the sentence before the trial even began* and when proven wrong, they refuse to admit that sometimes they are wrong!

But maybe they're just not mature enough to be driven into this kind of conversation.

(Gee)

I like the way she talks and doesn't allow him to comment, just look at him, seeing other interviews of his show, I can say that it's very provocative and he pushes to get the info he wants, classic behavior of a host. 

The way Egypt is heading is alarming the whole world. I hope it gets better and the people learn how to run a country after all the corruption that has been for -if I'm allowed to say- 3 decades.

That's really gross

An American mother went to a McDonald’s with her two 6 and 8 -year old children. She ordered two Happy Meals with chicken for the children and a hamburger with fries for herself. While they were eating, the 6-year old was more interested in the slide across the street than in the chicken nuggets which he didn’t even touch. So the mother decided she would eat them. Without actually watching what she was doing she was bringing a chicken biggest to her mouth, just when her 8-year old son yelled not to eat it. So she looked at the biggest to find that — despite the crust, it looked just like a chicken’s head.The manager offered them their meal for free and two more weeks of free meals. The mother pressed charges and 
demanded 100,000 dollars compensation.


In my perspective, $100,000 's a large amount of money, but again, he deserved it, I mean it's not like he doesn't know what goes around in the place that he runs.

1st day of Ramadan!

It's the 1st day of Ramadan after Mubarak left and I'm already excited, so far I can't sleep. Today all the family is gonna gather around in the family house to have the 1st iftar together. We're all used to doing that every year -like everyone else. It's 6 am and I coudn't be any more excited.


(Gee)
