Response to "Medical Students' Letter of Solidarity with Gaza"

Recently the Lancet published a very anti-Israel letter from medical students up in Boston. The following letter is in response to that pubication's publishing of the letter.

I'm republishing that letter here today to stand for MY SIGNATURE to it, even though I am not an MD. If you support it's message please leave a comment and your name or your online name and send others who support it's message to this particular post to sign in the comments section as well. Thank you, Lauren

Response to "Medical Students' Letter of Solidarity with Gaza"

http://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?key=pvjAv_nQaRxr4hwAD5RXoQw

1/14/2009

In a recently drafted letter, medical students in Boston implicate Israel in perpetrating a “disproportionate assault” that underlies the current humanitarian disaster in Gaza. While these doubtlessly well-intended individuals seek the moral high ground in calling for “an immediate cessation of hostilities,” they unfortunately ignore the realities of the situation. As fellow medical students, we would be utterly remiss if we did not attempt to provide a clearer picture of the reality in Gaza and address some of the troubling points of our colleagues in their “Medical Students' Letter of Solidarity with Gaza.” We believe that the invocation of an alleged “moral voice” in the face of a complex political situation without a full understanding of the facts is irresponsible and unprofessional.

A brief chronology of the latest saga of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is crucial to a proper appreciation of the issues involved in the current war. In August 2005, after five years of fighting in the Second Intifada with no resolution in sight, Israel unilaterally withdrew all of its soldiers and citizens from the Gaza strip in hopes of fostering a lasting peace. Since the Israeli withdrawal, however, Hamas, an internationally recognized terrorist organization funded by Iran, has fired over 6,000 deadly rockets from Gaza targeting Israeli civilians. It is against these war crimes, the indiscriminate targeting of innocent civilians, that the Israeli military has been forced to respond. As President-elect Obama asserted in a campaign visit to Israel in July 2008, "If somebody was sending rockets into my house where my two daughters sleep at night, I would do everything to stop that, and would expect Israel to do the same thing." After years of restraint and after exhausting all diplomatic avenues, it is this very principle of defending its civilians, one of the foundational tenets of a democratic nation, which has driven Israel to take up arms against Hamas.

There is no question that the loss of Palestinian life in Gaza is terribly tragic and that every effort should be made to avoid civilian casualties and to provide medical aid and supplies to those suffering. While no party is blameless for the tragic Palestinian death toll, the stark contrast between Israel's and Hamas' treatment of the people in Gaza must be unequivocally asserted. Israel's defense of its own citizens has gone hand in hand with extraordinary efforts to protect the civilians of Gaza. Israel distributes leaflets, sends voicemails and text messages, and uses radio and TV announcements to warn Gazan civilians to clear areas of imminent attacks. Israel seeks to minimize civilian casualties through surgical strikes on military objectives, and frequently aborts key missions due to concerns for civilian casualties. Moreover, since the beginning of the war, Israel has transported thousands of pounds of food and medical supplies to ease the Gazans’ plight.

Unfortunately, Israel's efforts to minimize harm to the civilians of Gaza have been confounded by Hamas which consistently places civilians in the line of fire. Hamas, in clear violation of international law, gathers women and children around military targets to use them as human shields. This terrorist regime endangers the people of Gaza by using civilian homes, schools, mosques and hospitals as launching grounds for rockets fired at Israeli civilians and prides itself on the number of its own people martyred to the destruction of Israel. It preys on the moral conscience of the democratic world, which places a premium on innocent lives, knowing that Israel seeks to avoid killing the very same Palestinian civilians whom Hamas militants hide behind and deem dispensable. It is these abominable tactics of Hamas that leads to the "disproportionate" number of Palestinian civilian casualties and which should evoke international condemnation and outrage.

We recognize the hardships and painful losses incurred by both sides of this conflict, but we also know that simplistic solutions based on distorted facts are not the answer. Blind calls for an “immediate cessation of hostilities” outside the context of a viable and sustainable security are short-sighted. While this may seem to be an attractive and “humanitarian” solution in the short term, it will not alleviate the plight of Palestinians who suffer under the policies of the Hamas regime nor bring safety to the civilians of Israel who currently live in terror of Hamas rockets.

Every person should rightly be pained by the death and suffering of innocent people wherever they may be. Nonetheless, espousing moral indignation in the face of a skewed and one-sided picture of an immensely complex situation simply delays finding appropriate solutions. How can a letter that calls for humanitarianism and civilian protection point to Israel’s “brutal attacks” while ignoring the countless Israeli efforts to protect Gazan civilians? Why was it deemed irrelevant to mention the significant role of Hamas in the number of Palestinian civilian deaths? It pains us that some would attempt to value the lives and security of one people over the lives and security of another, and to express solidarity with some innocents while ignoring others. As medical students committed to the sanctity and preservation of human life, we too express our grave concern for the protection of innocents and hope for a speedy but viable resolution so that both Palestinians and Israelis can live in peace and safety.

I'm Tired

Dear God,

I'm tired of a world like this. We are a peace loving people and yet we never get a peaceful rest from the fear of being slaughtered.

I'm tired of living in a world that allows even one Muslim to execute the Nazi salute and shout, "We want to kill all the Jews, all the Jews should be slain, they have no right to exist!" Without being challenged by the rest of the world strongly and denouncing those that speak this way. This was said in Denmark this week god. In my lifetime. After growing up hearing "never again"...again it is happening.

The world is mad.

I'm tired of living in a world where millions of people continue to justify a culture of people who take their own children and use them as human shields simply to gain support against a race of people they wish to wipe into extinction.

I'm tired of living in a world where the media refuses to report the daily missle attacks against my people day in and day out for years and years and years but is all too happy to report when my people are forced to act in defense against those who are attacking us, and when we have no choice but to accept that some civilians will be killed in defending ourselves from the stockpile of missles that are being shipped in by Iran and through secret tunnels from Egypt just so that an entire race of people can carry out their call to wipe out another entire race of people, my people.

I'm tired god.

Dear god where are the people of the world who will stand for us and stand with us for peace?

Dear god please make them stop forcing us to kill their children.

Dear god, I just want my life back. I want my birthright to live peacefully and for as long as my body will allow, to carry out my passions and to experience love, to bring children into this world and to continue to share friendships and relationships with all people of all cultures and religions in peace.

Children Are Human Shields



What is the responsibility of a government? To protect it's citizens, no? To shield their children and citizens from harm or to use them as shields from harm?

Hamas From An Arabs YouTube Video - Watch And Learn

Sometimes when it's so much a part of your life...you lose the ability to such intense clarity that it takes someone else's words and newer eye to communicate more clearly your thoughts.

The other day I posted a video showing a hate and rage filled racist protest in favor of Palestinians and Hamas. That protest was in Florida on December 30, 2008! I sent that video privately to many of my blog readers as well as making the post. Babs wrote me back and with her permission I'd like to show you her words which are so eloquent.

"Politics aren't my thing, but inhumanity is more than politics, and this stuff is still going on today! We have 'The National Front' here in the UK, who want all Jews, Homosexuals and goodness knows who else, put to death! Thankfully they will NEVER get into power, however hard they recruit!

I can't imagine how it must feel for you to hear that. It made me want to face her and force her to really think about what she was shouting out. I wanted to take her back in time and make her watch 'the ovens' at work, then have to live with the nightmares for the rest of her life!" (what I know about National Front is what I knew from the 70's and may be out of date now.)

Watch this Arab speak about Hamas below.

Sorry to burst the lefts bubble with their blame America for everything big bad and greedy...but their time is hopefully coming to an end along this time. This BIG company in India.

Satyam Scandal Shocks IT Sector

While waiting for my bagel and coffee I saw the front page of the Wall Street Journel on Thursday with that headline. Turns out this company is an outsourcing company.

I HATE outsourcing. I've always hated outsourcing. It's another chip in the destruction of the American worker, sending jobs of hard working people to India or another country so that they can pay those non-native English speakers 50 cents an hour to annoy the living shit out of me (and you) by speaking some crazy ass non-understanding English sentences until WE get so frustrated by the call that we give up and hang up.

Now I don't see it on the online article but in print they mentioned that sitting on their board was a Harvard Business graduate. And even though Price WaterhouseCoopers was supposedly independently auditing this firm ,millions of fake dollars were recorded as income from this company.

I've never been a fan of those who taut their Ivy League degrees. OH wonderous of wonders our next President is a Harvard graduate. WHOOOPED DEE DO! From my experience all Harvard grad means is the intelligence to concock large schemes that the average man can't keep up with to expose, hidden by flowerly scholarly sounding language and often with doublespeak, making the average man feel inferior just enough so that he doesn't question what is going on.

And let's just say that a certain blogger knows first-hand how easy it is to write a paper for a Harvard student and let that student turn it in as if it were his own. echem echem!

The only difference between these Harvard grads and the rest of us is that they by way of the school's reputation and good name acquire more power and status giving them the ability to pull off these financial frauds such as the one by this Indian company.

No Pants Free Drink- TONIGHT - True Husband Material

I'm being egged on by Tiffany to go here: http://tinyurl.com/nybarfly tonight.
Here's the story:
Get a free drink at SideBAR for not wearing pants. Underwear not optional.
No shirt, no shoes, no service. No pants? No problem. Your first drink is on the house!
SideBAR has one of the more interesting drink deals in recent memory. This Saturday the 10th, they promise a free first round to anyone that shows up pant-less. The deal starts at 5:30, and is in celebration of Improv Everywhere’s annual No Pants Subway Ride. Better hurry, it may be your one chance to drunkenly drop trou without being hauled away by the police.
They say you can tell a lot about someone by what they drink, but SideBAR makes the adage even better. That guy’s drinking beer and wearing smiley face boxers? He’s a cool dude. The chick wearing American Apparel briefs and sipping on a Sidecar? Boy, is she worth knowing. The 34 year old, morbidly obese gentleman wearing a woman’s thong? Who cares what the fuck he’s drinking, just stay away.
SideBAR is located at 118 East 15th Street. Your dignity is located back at your apartment, with your pants.

Thanks for looking out for the welfare of this single gal...

I tried really hard to get Tiffany to get a babysitter but alas she balked...hmmmm

Iranians Stuck In Limbo- Camp Ashraf

I came across this group back in November when walking to the United Nations during my lunch hour. They handed me some literature but I must admit I misplaced it.













There's been a few short news reports about their situation. Here's what I understand their situation to be. Somehow they supported the overthrow of the Shah of Iran. But what I do not understand is why they were not accepted by the next government who actually did overthrow the Shah. They fled to Iraq and were given safe haven by Sadaam Hussien in a small area of his country.



















The basics make sense to me. These people were against the Iranian government. Sadaam was against Iran. He sheltered them. Now that there is a new governement that is more friendly to Iran they are being told that their safe haven status is up and will be returned to Iran. Sounds like a death sentence to me.








I really do not understand this situation past the very basics but I think it warrents a better look. I'm wondering if Matt of Matt-Speak might have better knowledge on this subject. He is after all one darn smart cookie?








Here are some photos of a small protest they had across the street from the United Nations.

YouTube Removed Another Pro Israel Video

What could POSSIBLY be the reason to remove the video I posted on Monday for all of you to see? Why would YouTube take it down. Just another example of their bias against Israel. While they let the gazzilions of racist hateful propoganda of the Islamic terrorist stay posted they remove a video that is a list of the facts and timeline of Israel. The music was canned music so it could not be for copyright infringement.

SHAME ON YOUTUBE.

I wonder who owns YouTube. Is it a terrorist sympathizer? Is it someone who is Islamic? Hmmm

I mean really don't I have a right to know this? In the papers whenever someone is Jewish they most certainly make a point to tell us. So I want to know who is controlling the removal or approval of content on YouTube and why it is so clearly biased.

In the meantime I'm searching for that video from another source. And I know the timeline as well and will write it out for you if need be. However a picture is worth a thousand words!

Do You REALLY Want To Know The Truth?



If you truly desire to understand what is happening right now...take the time to watch this video.

My Experience With Chat Boards

Well I tried one. I really did and I had fun for the most part at first.

A bloggy friend of mine invited me in and that in itself was exciting. But that feeling wore off pretty darn fast.

If there's one lesson I know I need to learn that I haven't so far is to wait wait wait before jumping in.

This is the ONE place I've made the BIGGEST mistakes in my life and which always get me in hot water.

I'm not sure what it is that makes me keep stepping in doodoo when it comes to this particular thing. Believe it or not I think it's the naivite in me. I know what is in my heart and I jump in thinking I am just participating with the rest. But I forget to wait and watch and see how people behave first before I know if they are safe and stable people.

In the last year of my blogging I've "met" and made some awesome friends. Those of you who come around every day accept me and my hot topics and feelings even if you disagree. That's called respect. You never challenge my right to my views, you accept them. I've gotten used to that.

I always seem to forget how emotional people are and that they aren't run by logic. I don't know why I forget I, just know that I do. I forget that people will lie and stick together even when they are completely aware that this is happening just because they do not like someone else or their views.

I'm not even going to claim I don't get emotional sometimes too. Hell I am human.

But one thing I am not is stupid. I know when people are full of shit. I know when people are lying to my face. And those that know me understand why and how I know this.

I'm not into being anyone's punching bag. Why spend time with people that are so caught up in anger and negativity within and amongst themselves and have tried to drag me into their history and make me a target.

I've learned to stay with the positive people.

You can always find those who will find fault with you. That will never ever stop happening for as long as you are alive. The key is to find those that love you and respect you for all your views and feelings and surround yourself with their love.

Here at my blog I've found some of the most amazing people and you've really given me a gift I bet you never realized you gave me. Thank you all for that. I look forward to another fun and amazing year writing here and reading your comments and all your blogs and thoughts too.

Mosab Hassan Yousef

The following is a transcript of an interview with Mosab Hassan Yousef


"There is no chance. Is there any chance for fire to co-exist with the water? There is no chance. Hamas can play politics for 10 years, 15 years; but ask any one of Hamas' leaders, 'Okay, what's going to happen after that? Are you just going to live and co-exist with Israel forever?' The answer is going to be no ... unless they want to do something against the Koran. But it's their ideology and they can't just say 'We're not going to do it.' So there is no chance."



JONATHAN HUNT: Why, after 25 years, did you change?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: I believe that all those walls that Islam built for the last 1,400 years are not existing (sic) anymore. They don't recognize this. They built those walls and made people ignorant because they're afraid. They didn't want people to discuss anything about the reality of Islam, about the big questions of Islam and they asked their followers, the Muslims, 'Don't ask about those certain questions.'


Renouncing Islam Son of Hamas Leader Speaks Out But now, people have media. If the father closes the door for his daughter not to leave the house, she's going to go behind her computer and travel the world. So people easily can get information, knowledge, searching (sic) engines, so it's very, very available for everybody to study about Islam, about other religions. Not from the Islam point of view, but from other points of view.

So for the next 25 years this is for sure going to make huge change in the Muslim and the Arab world.

JONATHAN HUNT: You speak from a unique perspective, a man who grew up not just in an Islamic family but as part of an organization seen by many people around the world as an extreme force in Islam: Hamas. What is the reality of Islam? You say people don't see the reality; What is the reality of Islam?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: There are two facts that Muslims don't understand ... I'd say about more than 95 percent of Muslims don't understand their own religion. It came with a much stronger language than the language that they speak so they don't understand it ... they rely only on religious people to get their knowledge about this religion.

Second, they don't understand anything about other religions. Christian communities live between Muslims and they're minority and they (would) rather not to go speak out and tell people about Jesus because it's dangerous for them.

So, all their ideas about other religions on earth are from Islamic perspectives. So those two realities, most people don't understand.

If people, if Muslims, start to understand their religion — first of all, their religion — and see how awful stuff is in there, they'll start to figure out, this can't (be) ... because most religious people focus on certain points of Islam. They have many points that they are very embarrassed to talk about.

JONATHAN HUNT: Such as?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: Such as Muhammad's wives. You will never go to a mosque and hear about anyone talking about Muhammad's wives, which is like more than 50 wives — and nobody knows (this), by the way. If you ask the majority of Muslims, they will not know this fact.

So they're embarrassed to talk about this, but they talk about the glory of Islam, they talk about the victory, the victories that Muhammad made. So, when people just like look at themselves and see they're defeated, they have ignorance, they're not educated, they're not leading the world as they're expected to do. They’re think they want to get back to that victory by doing the same, what Muhammad did, but disregarding (sic) the timing. They forget that this happened 1,400 years ago and it's not going to happen again.

JONATHAN HUNT: Do they want to destroy Christianity?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: Islam destroyed Christianity from the beginning and Muslims don't recognize that they stabbed Christianity (in) its heart when they said that Jesus wasn't killed on the cross. They think that they honor him in this way.

Basically, any Christians understand that this way, (but Muslims) tell Jesus, okay, we don't care, you didn't die for us. Someone sacrificed his life for you, (but) you tell him, okay, you didn't do it!

This is what Muslims are doing basically. But they don't understand that this is the most important part of Christianity: the cross!

So, they are ignorant, they don't know what they are doing and it explains what an evil idea it is behind this Islam.

JONATHAN HUNT: What specific event or events began to change your mind about Islam?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: Since I was a child I started to ask very difficult questions, even my family was telling me all the time, 'You're a very difficult person and we were having trouble answering your questions. Why are you asking so many questions?' This was from the beginning, to be honest with you.

But I felt that everybody — and my father was a good example for me because he was a very honest, humble person, very nice to my mother, to us, and raised us on the principle of forgiveness, okay? I thought that everybody in Islam was like this.

When I was 18 years old, and I was arrested by the Israelis and was in an Israeli jail under the Israeli administration, Hamas had control of its members inside the jail and I saw their torture; (they were) torturing people in a very, very bad way.

JONATHAN HUNT: Hamas members torturing other Hamas members?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: Hamas leaders! Hamas leaders that we see on TV now, and big leaders, responsible for torturing their own members. They didn't torture me, but that was a shock for me, to see them torturing people: putting needles under their nails, burning their bodies. And they killed lots of them.

JONATHAN HUNT: Why were they torturing people?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: Because they suspected that they had relations with the Israelis and (were) co-operating with the Israeli occupation against Hamas ... So hundreds of people were victims for this, and I was a witness for about a year for this torture. So that was a huge change in my life. I started to open my (eyes), but, the point (is) that I got that there are good Muslims and bad Muslims. Good Muslims, such as my father, and bad Muslims, like those Hamas members in the jail torturing people.

So that was the beginning of opening my eyes wide.

JONATHAN HUNT: You talk about the good Muslims, like your father, yet you still now renounce the faith of your father. Could you have not been a good Muslim?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: Now, here's the reality: after I studied Christianity — which I had a big misunderstanding about, because I studied about Christianity from Islam, which is, there is nothing true about Christianity when you study it from Islam, and that was the only source.

When I studied the Bible carefully verse by verse, I made sure that that was the book of God, the word of God for sure, so I started to see things in a different way, which was difficult for me, to say Islam is wrong.

Islam is my father. I grew up for (one) father — 22 years for that father — and another father came to me and told me, 'I'm sorry, I'm your father.' And I was like, 'What are you talking about? Like, I have my own father, and it's Islam!' And the father of Christianity told me, 'No, I'm your father. I was in jail, and this (Islam) is not your father.'

So basically this is what happened. It's not easy to believe this (Islam) is not your father anymore. So I had to study Islam again from a different point of view to figure out all the mistakes, the huge mistakes and its effects, not only on Muslims — (of) which I hated the values ... I didn't like all those traditions that make people's lives more difficult — but its effects also on humanity. On humanity! People killing each other (in) the name of God.

So definitely I started to figure out the problem is Islam, not the Muslims and those people — I can't hate them because God loved them from the beginning. And God doesn't create junk. God created good people that he loved, but they're sick, they have the wrong idea. I don't hate those people anymore but I feel very sorry for them and the only way for them to be changed (is) by knowing the word of God and the real way to him.

JONATHAN HUNT: Does it worry you that in saying these things — and given your background and your words carrying extra weight — there is a danger that you will increase the difficulties, the hatred between Christians and Muslims in the world right now?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: This could happen if a Christian person will go talk to them about the reality of Islam. They put Christians on the enemy list anyway, before you talk to them about Islam. So if you go to them and tell them, as a Christian, they will be offended immediately and they will hate you and this will definitely increase the vacuum between both religions — but what made someone like me change?

Years ago, years ago, when I was there, God opened my eyes, my mind also, and I became a completely different person. So now, I can do this duty, while you as Christians can help me do it, but maybe you wouldn't be able to. (Muslims) have no excuse now.

JONATHAN HUNT: How difficult a process has this been for you to effectively walk away from your family, leave your home behind? How difficult is that?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: Taking your skin off your bones, that's what happened. I love my family, they love me. And my little brothers, they’re like my sons. I raised them. Basically, it was the biggest decision in my life.

I left everything behind me, not only family. When you decide to convert to Christianity or any other religion from Islam, it's not (enough) to just say goodbye and leave, you know? It's not like that. You're saying goodbye to culture, civilization, traditions, society, family, religion, God — what you thought was God for so many years! So it's not easy. It's very complicated. People think it's that easy, like it doesn't matter. Now I'm here in the U.S. and I got my freedom and it's great, but at the same time, nothing is like family, you know. To lose your family —

JONATHAN HUNT: Have you lost your family?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: My family is educated and it was very difficult for them. They asked me many times, especially for the first two days, to keep my faith to myself and not go to the media and announce it.

But for me it was a duty from God to announce his name and praise him (around) the world because my reward is going to be that he's going to do the same for me. So I did it, basically, as a duty. I (wonder) how many people can do what I can do today? I didn't find any.

So, I had to be strong about that. That was very challenging. That was the most difficult decision in my life and I didn't do it for fun. I didn't do it for anything from this world. I did it only for one reason: I believed in it. People are suffering every day because of wrong ideas. I can help them get out of this endless circle ... the track the devil (laid) for them.

JONATHAN HUNT: Have you spoken to your father recently?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: There is no chance to communicate with my father because he's in jail now and there is (sic) no phones in the jail to communicate with him.

JONATHAN HUNT: Have other members of your family told you how he's reacted?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: They've visited him from time to time. Till this moment, I don't know his reaction exactly but I'm sure he's very sad (over) a decision like this. But at the same time, he's going to understand, because he knows me and he knows that I don't make any decisions without (believing strongly in them).

JONATHAN HUNT: Is it making his life more difficult among fellow Hamas members?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: Definitely. My family, including my father, had to carry this cross with me. It wasn't their choice. It was my choice, but they had to carry this cross with me and I ask God — I pray for (my father), all my brothers and my sisters here in this church, praying all the time for them — 'God, open their eyes, their minds, to come to Christ. And bless them because they had to carry this cross with me.'

JONATHAN HUNT: Tell me about Hamas and the way it works. Is Hamas a purely Islamic religious organization as you see it, and that's where, in your eyes, its faults lie, or are there other parts of it which are a problem for you? Or is Hamas a good organization? What is Hamas to you?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: If we talk about people, there are good people everywhere. Everywhere. I mean, good people that God created.

Do they do their own things? Yes, they do their own things. I know people who support Hamas but they never got involved in terrorist attacks, for example ... They follow Hamas because they love God and they think that Hamas represents God. They don’t have knowledge, they don't know the real God and they never studied Christianity. But Hamas, as representative for Islam, it's a big problem.

The problem is not Hamas, the problem is not people. The root of the problem is Islam itself as an idea, as an idea. And about Hamas as an organization, of course, the Hamas leadership, including my father, they're responsible; they're responsible for all the violence that happened from the organization. I know they describe it as reaction to Israeli aggression, but still, they are part of it and they had to make decisions in those operations against Israel, (for) which there was the killing of many civilians.

JONATHAN HUNT: Do you believe Israel blameless in the conflict?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: Occupation is bad. I can't say Israel — I'm not against any nation. We can't say Israelis, we can't say Palestinians, we're talking about ideas. Israel has the right to defend itself, nobody can (argue) against this. But sometimes they use (too much) aggression against civilians. Sometimes many civilians were killed because those soldiers weren't responsible enough, how they treat people at the checkpoints.

My message even to the Israeli soldiers: at least treat people in a good way at the checkpoints. You don't have to look really bad and it's not about nations, it's about just wrong ideas on both sides and the only way for two nations really to get out of the endless circle is to know the principles that Jesus brought to this earth: grace, love, forgiveness. Without this, they will never be able to move on, or break this endless circle.

JONATHAN HUNT: You've seen your father jailed, you've been in prison yourself. You've seen Hamas carry out acts of terror against Israelis, and yet you say everybody needs to rise above that?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: Definitely. This is the only choice. Nobody has magic power to do something for the Middle East. No one. You can ask any politician here in the U.S., you can ask any Palestinian politician or Arab politician, Israeli leaders; no one, no one can do anything. Even if they believe in peace now: they're part of the game.

They're part of the trick. They can't, even if you find a brave person, like Rabin, who was called by an Israeli to make peace with the Palestinians and give them a state, no one, even if you find a strong leader, they can't do this. You can't force an independent country to give another country independence. (Especially when) the other country wants to destroy it.

Everybody is hurt. Israeli soldiers, they lost their friends. Palestinians, they lost their children, their fathers. (There are) many people in prison still, and many people were killed. Thousands. So everybody will never forget this. If they want to keep looking to the past, they will never get out of this circle. The only way to start (is just by) moving on. They were born under the occupation as Palestinians.

The last two generations, it's not their choice. The new generations from Israel — if we say disregarding the existence of Israel is right or wrong, what's the guilt of those people who were born in Israel and they have no other country to go to? It's their country now, that's how they see it. And they are going to keep their resistance and defense against whomever. (They will) say, 'Get out of this land!' So the only way is for both nations to start to understand the grace, love and forgiveness of God, to be able to get out of this.

JONATHAN HUNT: Do you believe that Israel can ever strike a peace deal with Hamas?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: There is no chance. Is there any chance for fire to co-exist with the water? There is no chance. Hamas can play politics for 10 years, 15 years; but ask any one of Hamas' leaders, 'Okay, what's going to happen after that? Are you just going to live and co-exist with Israel forever?' The answer is going to be no ... unless they want to do something against the Koran. But it's their ideology and they can't just say 'We're not going to do it.' So there is no chance. It's not about Israel, it's not about Hamas: it's about both ideologies. There is no chance.

JONATHAN HUNT: Aren't you terrified that somebody is going to try to kill you for saying these things — which would be approved of according to parts of the Koran?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: They got to kill my ideas first, (and) that's it, they're already out. So how are they going to kill my idea? How are they going to kill the opinions that I have? ... They can kill my body, but they can't kill my soul.

JONATHAN HUNT: You're not afraid?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: As a human, you know, I can be very brave now, I'm not thinking about it at this moment and I feel that God is on my side. But if this will be the challenge, I ask God to give me enough strength.

JONATHAN HUNT: Have you been threatened?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: No, not really. Honestly, most Muslims and Muslim leaders here in the U.S. community, European communities, they are trying to get ahold of me. They are calling my famiily, my mother, and asking for my contacts. They are telling her, 'We want to help him.'

JONATHAN HUNT: They think you need help?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: Yeah, they think that Christians took advantage of me, and this is completely wrong. I've been a Christian for a long time before they knew, or anyone knew. I love Jesus, I followed him for many years now. It wasn't a secret for most of the time, and this time I just did it to glorify the name of God and praise him.

They're not dealing with a regular Muslim. They know that I'm educated, they know that I studied, they know that I studied Islam and Christianity. When I made my decision, I didn't make it because someone did magic on me or convinced me. It was completely my decision.

JONATHAN HUNT: Do you miss Ramallah?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: Definitely. You've been there and you know how a wonderful country (it is). Very, very beautiful. It's a very small spot and it has everything — this is why people are fighting for that piece of land. I definitely miss Ramallah. Jereusalem. The Old City.

JONATHAN HUNT: Do you believe you will ever be able to go back?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: I think I belong to that land, and sooner or later I'm going to go back, no matter what. If they want to kill me, they (will) do whatever they want to do. I have a family there, they love me, they completely support me now with my decisions. Maybe they don't want me to talk to the media but they believe that I made a decision that I completely believe in. So they support me, so I love my family. I'm going to go back there again one day. I love my town.

JONATHAN HUNT: Do you think you'll ever go back to a Middle East living in peace?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: There will be a 100-person peace when Jesus comes back, when he judges everybody. His kingdom's going to be 1,000 years and it's going to be completely peaceful and it's going to be the kingdom of God.

JONATHAN HUNT: What is your basic message to any Muslim listening to this right now?

MOSAB HASSAN YOUSEF: My message to them is, first of all, to open their minds. They were born to Muslim families — this is how they got Islam and this is just like ... any other religion, like growing up (in) a Christian family, or growing up (in) a Jewish family.

So my point is that I want those people to open their eyes, their minds, to start to understand and imagine that they weren't born for a Muslim famiily. And use their minds.

Why did God give them minds? Open their hearts. Read the Bible. Study their religion. I want to open the gate for them, I want them to be free. They will find a good life on earth just by following God — and they're also going to guarantee the other life.

New Year's Resolutions: The Two Lists

A Message from DailyOM Co-Founder Scott Blum
I was fortunate to spend time with an enigmatic man named Robert during a very special period of my life. Robert taught me many things during our days together, and this time of year reminds me of one particular interaction we had.

"Now that you are becoming more aware," Robert said, "you need to begin to set goals for yourself so you don't lose the momentum you have built."

"Like New Year's resolutions?" I asked.

"That's an interesting idea," he smirked. "Let's do that."

By then I was used to his cryptic responses, so I knew something was up because of the way his eyes sparkled as he let out an impish laugh.

"Tonight's assignment is to make two lists," Robert continued. "The first is a list of all the New Year's resolutions you WANT to keep, and the second is a list of all the New Year's resolutions you WILL keep. Write the WANT List first, and when you have exhausted all of your ideas, then write the second list on another sheet of paper."

That night I went home and spent several hours working on the two lists. The WANT List felt overwhelming at first, but after a while I got into writing all the things I had always wanted to do if the burdens of life hadn't gotten in the way. After nearly an hour, the list swelled to fill the entire page and contained nearly all of my ideas of an ideal life. The second list was much easier, and I was able to quickly commit ten practical resolutions that I felt would be both realistic and helpful.

The next day, I met Robert in front of the local food Co-op, where we seemed to have most of our enlightening conversations. "Tell me about your two lists," Robert said as the familiar smirk crept onto his face.

"The first list contains all the things I SHOULD do if I completely changed my life to be the person I always wanted to be. And the second list contains all the things I COULD do by accepting my current life, and taking realistic steps towards the life I want to lead."

"Let me see the second list," he said.

I handed him the second list, and without even looking at it, he ripped the paper into tiny pieces and threw it in the nearby garbage can. His disregard for the effort I had put into the list annoyed me at first, but after I calmed down I began to think about the first list in a different light. In my heart, I knew the second list was a cop out, and the first list was the only one that really mattered.

"And now, the first list." Robert bowed his head and held out both of his hands.

I purposefully handed him the first list and held his gaze for several seconds, waiting for him to begin reading the page. After an unusually long silence, he began to crumple the paper into a ball and once again tossed it into the can without looking at it.

"What did you do that for?!" I couldn't hide my anger any longer.

Robert began to speak in a quiet and assured voice. "What you SHOULD or COULD do with your life no longer matters. The only thing that matters, from this day forward, is what you MUST do."

He then drew a folded piece of paper from his back pocket and handed it to me.

I opened it carefully, and found a single word floating in the middle of the white page:

"Love."

Happy New Year For US

http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/129143

Happy New Year for us but not for those in Israel. And it hasn't been since the supposed peace process under President Clinton when MORE terror started against Israel than before.

For years since the small group of Jews were forcibly evicted from their homes in Gaza for the "peace process" 6000 Rockets have been fired daily into Israel reaching further and further inside Israel proper from Gaza. Often hitting homes and schools and wounding and killing many Israelis.

Click the link to watch a banned youtube video of survellience video of Hamas fighters loading their trucks with these rockets.

For there to be a true peace in the ME there needs to be honest recognition by those of us in the West to what is truly going on and not just what the biased MSM reports to you.

"The Northeast Intelligence Network has published a post documenting an interview with a U.S. Intelligence Official who is about to retire. Apparently he has anonymously broken his silence in regards to the situation in the Middle East and Israel. And it doesn't look good for Israel. The official stated that Israel will lose U.S. support. This interview only confirms my previous suspicions. It is clear that the media is portraying Israel as the aggressor, as Pamela Gellar over at Atlas has been documenting at a breathless pace. This portrayal is going to pave the way for U.S. abandonment of Israel in the name of "peace" and "world harmony". While the U.S. will continue to say that Israel has a right to self-defense, it will continually emphasize that its reaction against Hamas is an overreaction."
