Beirut video blog

Okay, one more visit to the middle east before I leave this topic for a while.  I noticed a featured video on YouTube was carrying a simple message: let’s ask for peace in the middle east.  So I did a response video which includes some of Mazen’s work from his blog at http://mazenkerblog.blogspot.com

Hope you enjoy it.

Is this turning into a video blog or what?  I haven’t even put all the YouTube videos I’ve done in the last week up here – they seemed a little too YT-centric and less relevant to this blog.  If you ever want to catch up with my YT videos, go to http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=AngryAussie

I’m planning to do a few more Alan Jones videos this weekend so stay tuned!

    I can’t get over the incredibly one-sided posts from Americans on YouTube about the whole Israel/Palestine thing. They really do seem to have no concept that is was an American and British idea that kicked the whole thing off! “I know” says Churchill, “let’s turf a bunch of Arabs out of where they’ve lived for 2000 years or so and give it to the people who lived there before that!” “Good plan” says Roosevelt, “Let’s give America to Native Americans and Australia to Aboriginals while we’re at it!” Okay, I made that last part up, but you get the idea.

  2. Ah yes, the old divide and rule. Imperial cultures are past masters at it. The middle east, africa, ireland, east timor – the perpetrators have been dutch, british, belgian, french even indonesian. The US needs to learn some fo this. It’s a bit more subtle than bombing the fuck out of people.

    I liked that one, but doesn’t look like that’s going to happen. It’s been brewing for decades and centuries now, and the area has always been on the Sword of Damocles.

    By the way, my own latest entry is a foul-mouthed anti-Republican diatribe. You might enjoy it.

  6. Range: yeah, a sword of damocles that’s going to drop us all neck deep in shit

    Custador good work, don’t let anyone talk you out of being angry. Anger is power!
