Tuesday 13th January, 2009

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon has begun a Middle East tour to push for a cessation of fighting between Israel and Hamas.

Ban has said he will step up diplomatic efforts to get both sides to adhere to a UN cease-fire resolution and allow the distribution of humanitarian aid into the devastated Palestinian territory.

Ban will first meet senior officials in Egypt and Jordan before flying to Israel, the West Bank, Turkey, Lebanon, Syria and Kuwait.

A visit to an Arab League summit is also on his planned itinerary.

Why War ?

Why War ?
Why wars are ceaselessly unable to stop ???
It is the root of greedy leaders that are craving for fame, power
and personal profits or benefits.
The root causes are egoism, selfishness, stubbornness,
no compassion of love for others, a heart full of hatred and vengence.
The only remedy is self-realization in moral values to heed the
Heavenly Truth…. Universal Love for Heaven, Earth and Mankind.
Religion comes from the docrine of the pure Heavenly teachings,
that is virtuous morals. But in today’s societies there many
certain quarters of “clever” people who have little knowledge
of its main essence, and are trying to misconstrue, misinterprete and
misguide others, thus causing many innocent followers to lose faith
and confidence in Religion.
Wars have nothing to do with RELIGION. It has been misinterpreted
or misguided by those who are hiding behind it to win the popularity
support for one’s personal gain. These are the selfish impostors.
Followers must be awake, not just listen to words alone, they
may lead one astray, causing more sufferings to oneself and others.
Be wise, not to be led by a fool to a land of fools where in delusion
fools are unable to recognise themselves as fools.

Mutual Peace

Political platform is NOT a place for greedy or selfish leaders intending
to abuse and misuse their powers for fame, wealth and to suppress or oppress the weaker ones. It is a platform to recognise all in Brotherhood by sharing and caring one another in mutual understanding, respect, trust and love.

Universal Justice

There is no perfect human system. There is no system of systems may offer true everlasting solution to conflicts and problems unless there is sincerity, compassion, and Universal Love for one another.
Systems come in many names and forms. It is the intention and substance one should focus on.

GIVE HIM A ROOM WITH A VIEW...

...IN SDEROT. That way he can see firsthand exactly why Israel went into Gaza in the first place.

YOU STUPID ARAB MORONS (yes, YOU)

NOW YOU THINK THE UN IS AGAINST YOU??? THAT’S WHY YOU’RE ALL A BUNCH OF FVCKING IDIOTS, BECAUSE YOU CAN’T RECOGNIZE A FRIEND FROM AN ENEMY. THE UN KISSES THE ARABS ASSES AND THE ARAB POSTERS ON THIS FORUM EQUATE THE UN WITH ISRAEL, JUST BECAUSE THE UN SEC GEN IS VISITING THE REGION. WHAT’S THE MATTER, GAZA FREAKS? AFRAID THAT BAN KI-MOON WILL SEE WHAT YOU BASTARDS ARE REALLY UP TO? THAT HE MIGHT LEARN THE TRUTH, INSTEAD OF BEING SNOWED BY A BUNCH OF LOUSE-RIDDEN GOAT EATERS? THE UN IS YOUR ONLY HOPE, YOU CAMEL-BREATH RUG PILOTS, AND EVEN THEY WILL SEE THROUGH YOUR TRANSPARENT LIES AND DECEITS.

to Zionist pig shits

you guys are murderous monsters who can think of a mass murder (in reference to 1dark1) in addition to being racists and practice the religion of hate and apartheid!!

the zionist and george bush butchers / murderers along with their accomplices hosni mubarak and abbas of Palestine hatched this conspiracy to kill Palestinians to gain from it. These people have near complete control of the world news media who are their slaves. These zionists also killed the sailors of the USS liberty in 1967- awebsite by this name exists. May ALLAH (SW) punish and humiliate these conspirators in the most severest manner- Ameen.

ZIONISTS who killed US sailors in 1967
these are the websites for the murder of US sailors by the zionists- www.gtr5.com,
