What is Hamas stand? What Hamas want to achieve in this David-vs-Goliath war? Take a look at this interview.
To understand Palestinian plight, you need to understand the point of view of the oppressed or the occupied people, not a point of view of the oppressor or the occupier. This is not a war between a free country versus a free country. This is a war between an occupier versus their slaves who want to be free. That is why, the leader Ismael Haniya in Gaza said “Palestinians in Gaza would keep up the resistance until victory. Gaza shall not fall, Gaza shall not fall, Gaza shall not fall.”

Some sites like If Americans Knew, show off facts about how US has been in control of Israel or Zionist shadow organization (AIPAC, ADL etc should ring a bell).
But if a respected media like New York Times put on an article as a proof that show us who is the real boss, then it is different matter. This article also put another similar article in context. This site give an analysis of what happened behind the curtain of White House.

Perspektif Indonesia terhadap Palestina dan perang kemerdekaan mereka
Posted by arully under HumanRightNo Comments
Sebagai bangsa yang pernah mengalami penjajahan, sungguh orang Indonesia sangat memahami perjuangan Hamas beserta seluruh elemen rakyat Palestina dalam memperjuangkan kemerdekaan dan pembebasan seluruh tanah air mereka. Seperti petuah dari Panglima Besar Jenderal Soedirman, dibulan Januari 1948 yang tercantum pada halaman Candi Borobudur: “Pertjaja dan jakinlah, bahwa kemerdekaan satu negara, jang didirikan di atas timbunan runtuhan ribuan djiwa harta benda dari rakjat dan bangsanja, tidak akan dapat dilenjapkan oleh manusia siapapun djuga!“

I found an article which give solutions to Palestinians problems
No amount of military escalation can buy Israel immunity from rocket attacks from the military wing of Hamas. Despite all the death and destruction that Israel has inflicted on them, they kept up their resistance and they kept firing their rockets. This is a movement that glorifies victimhood and martyrdom. There is simply no military solution to the conflict between the two communities. The problem with Israel’s concept of security is that it denies even the most elementary security to the other community. The only way for Israel to achieve security is not through shooting but through talks with Hamas, which has repeatedly declared its readiness to negotiate a long-term ceasefire with the Jewish state within its pre-1967 borders for 20, 30, or even 50 years. Israel has rejected this offer for the same reason it spurned the Arab League peace plan of 2002, which is still on the table: it involves concessions and compromises.

A Jews thought of the future of Judaism after Gaza onslaught
Posted by arully under HumanRightNo Comments
I read Adam Horowitz article, and I feel there is still hope for a solution to the injustice problem faced in this world.
There has been an unusual amount of introspection in the Jewish community this holiday season. Hanukkah was almost overshadowed by the Madoff scandal and the accompanying uproar about his impact on the Jewish community. The frenzy of handwringing and accusation culminated with the call for Madoff’s excommunication from Rabbi Joshua Hammerman, of Temple Beth El in Stamford, Connecticut, who stated in a passionate a letter to Malcolm Hoenlein that “never before has one man done such damage to individual Jews, Jewish organizations and Judaism itself.” Hammerman was motivated by fears for the future of Judaism: “Our own children are watching us.”
The future of Judaism and the moral standing of the US Jewish community are being threatened, but ironically, and tragically, it is happening far from the country clubs of Palm Beach and the mansions of Long Island. It is happening in Gaza. And unfortunately there is far too little handwringing about it in the Jewish leadership.
I do not share Rabbi Hammerman’s desire to ex-communicate anyone from the Jewish people, but I do share the Rabbi’s concern for the future – for the future of Judaism and the messages we are sending the next generations. The siege and destruction of Gaza is the political, humanitarian, and moral crisis of our time. Where is the moral standing of a community whose leaders promote the slaughter of innocents? And when will we agonize over scandals where lives are lost at Jewish hands, and not just fortunes?
It is totally wrong if you judges people base on their race, color, and religions, and persecute one base on that. Moreover, it is unacceptable to starve people and force them to be imprisoned in their own land.

Israel’s Moral Hazard
Posted by arully under Economy , HumanRight , IT , Law&Ethics , Media , Way of LifeNo Comments
Charles Krauthammer & Benjamin Netanyahu should learn what is morality and fanatical ideology itself. Israel doesn’t have morality because it is:
- An entity with fanatical ideology who forced the occupants to flee 60 years ago (look at Irgun and injustice)
- An entity who teach their children to kill others because they are a better human than others (look at this report)
- An entity with its fanatical ideology who are racist (look at Israel Citizenship and Haaretz report)
- An entity who based on propaganda and lies
- An entity who blockade 1.5 million people and starved them (look at OCHA report on Gaza condition 2008/12/17, despite Israel FM Tzipi Livni said “There is no humanitarian crisis in the Strip, and therefore there is no need for a humanitarian truce“)
- An entity who have been doing war crime
Voice from Gaza :: Aid worker diary ::
From Haaretz:
“I keep the children away from the windows because the F-16s are in the air; I forbid them to play below because it’s dangerous. They’re bombing us from the sea and from the east, they’re bombing us from the air. When the telephone works, people tell us about relatives or friends who were killed. My wife cries all the time. At night she hugs the children and cries. It’s cold and the windows are open; there’s fire and smoke in open areas; at home there’s no water, no electricity, no heating gas. And you [the Israelis] say there’s no humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Tell me, are you normal?“

I’m shocked that there are people on planet earth who enjoy –even talk about eating ice cream 
— watching 300 people killed as reported in Time Magazine.
The clear skies have also afforded ordinary Israeli citizens a chance to watch the onslaught — and applaud. At noon Sunday two Israeli Apache combat helicopters hovered in the air two miles east of Sderot, an Israeli town less than four miles from the border with the Hamas-ruled Gaza strip. Below the choppers, a dozen Israeli spectators perched on a hilltop watched with anticipation. A minute went by and the first Apache fired a Hellfire missile, which went rumbling into the Palestinian side of the border. A few seconds later the crowd broke into cheers at the resulting sight: somewhere between the Jibalya refugee camp and the outskirts of Gaza city a ball of heavy black smoke was rising. (See pictures of Gaza under Hamas.)
Itay Avni, 32, who lives in the nearby Kibbutz of Nir-Am (population 400) is overjoyed at the Israeli assault on Gaza. He was among the crowd watching the Apaches launch their missiles. “Yesterday more then a hundred people from all around were here on this hilltop enjoying to the scene of dozens of aerial raids on Hamas military targets inside the Gaza strip,” he says. “If I had opened an ice-cream stand here I would have made a lot money.”
