Brothers In Arms

It is sibling rivalry at a grand scale all in God’s will. On one side is humbly destitute the other is merciless with friends so powerful beyond bound. Their courtyards are the killing fields. The world is watching crying blood.

The story of this neighbourhood conflicts went beyond the Yom Kippur War. The Black September was only one of the many sidekicks to the successive intifada. One has to go back to the stories of children of Isaac and Ishmael to make sense of the everlasting war between the generations of fighting brothers who never know nor understand what peace is. Mark Knopfler with his mesmerizing guitar twang wrote Brothers In Arms to sing his heart out for the world to listen, the world did listen, not to the Palestinians’ plight but to Dire Straits’ best album instead. Zubir Ali did the same, crooning Gadis Kecil in a lullaby manner. Dr Mahathir’s drew nine commandments in his Year 2009 wishes to Barack Obama urging the president elect to-be to stop killing people, for war is primitive, the cavemen way of dealing with a problem, snide remarks that so far only to boost www. chedet.com hit counts. A friend of mine is so sick and tired of the Middle East War game that the gory images of the bloody killings seen in the media do not seem to bother him anymore, arguing that both sides of leaders and factions have their share of nut cases – sibling rivalry taken to the extreme. Echoing Bill Clinton’s famous remarks with a twist – it is politics, stupid.

A truce? Looks like the Final Big Bang is the only answer.

My two cents worth.

Assalamualaikum,

Interesting. I'm now reading a book, The International Jews, written by Mr Henry Ford, the founder of the Ford motor Co. Ford's research showed how the Jews were carrying out the plans detailed in the "Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion". I just finished a few chapters yet the facts were quite overwhelming...how they fit in with what is going on.....

Betul Syam, Hati hancur luluh jiwa gundah parah air mata tumpah tak tertahan mengenang nasib rakyat Palestin. Awat Hamas sembunyi, simpan bom dan senjata bawah hospital dan serang dari kawasan perumahahan awam ... ? -sigh-

Ok Azmanar, lepah ni cakap Melayu leh. BI kita tak tinggi mana pun. Biasa-biasa jer dan banyak nahu yang salah.

Yes g, you are also absolutely right about the way the Hamas are fighting the war...they should read the book by The Lives of Sahabah by one Sheikhul Hadiths to understand how the muslims really fought the Romans and the Persians, the so called superpowers in those days and overcame them to spread the message of Islam throughout the world...without actually killing or letting their women, children and aged be victims of the war againts the infidels...
