For all trolls, disruptors, and Freeptard lurkers....
...look at this child (a Palestinian) and tell us how you can go to sleep at night.



Go ahead, for once in your miserable lives pretend not to be the group of cowards you are. (Oh by the way, I read the article about one of your own killing a black bear with his Bowie in some backcountry portage. Since it was a black I guarantee it was protecting its cubs because this kind of ursine is timid and docile).

2. You should hear Brian MacNeill perform sometime
This refrain has haunted me for some time:

Any Mick'll do
Any black, any Jew
Any poor wee bugger
Who's not like you
They're down from the trees
And they're up from the bogs
They come 'round here
And they steal your jobs
They're all the bloody same
Just not the same as you
And when a scapegoat's all you need
Any Mick'll do


MacNeill sang that in response to the injustice done to Gerry Conlon. For too many FReepers, I feel this is just policy in action.

3. Gonna be flamed for this:
But where were/are these photos from other regimes and folks in power?

Oh I FORGOT - if WE post anything from any other group it is propoganda. My bad.

Sure, such picture sucks. But we only show them when it benefits our view of the universe. If such photos were around when saddam was in power, we would ignore them here.

If they were from Hizbollah strikes, we would say it is because Israel is at fault and they made this happen.

Where were WE during the saddam years in power? Were we protesting him peacefully trying to bring about change there? Did we plaster such photos on the web? No?

Amazing to me how we are so quick to point out our wrongs and similar democracy's wrongs but so slow to point out any one elses.

Kids in NK, Africa, et al are in pain too. And let's not forget Iran. But if we were able to get pics from there, who here would show them anyway?

The pain does suck - all the way around. Sadly we seem to only care when it props up our ideals, and hence we use it to prove a political point.

How many kids were saved today by christians spending their money and time to help them? Who cares, christians suck and only want to promote their god. Tons of kids the world over are suffering, and the ones we cling to here are the ones that help us in a political way.

I don't know how the RW sleeps at night, or the LW for that matter.

4. THis is a political website.
What other points but political ones ought to be made with this or any other picture posted here?

And your blanket condemnation of people on the left not caring until it scores political points does deserve flaming, yes. For all the people here who've given to or otherwise helped children in distress all around the world, and I'm betting that's a lot of us, shame on you for playing that pointless guilt card.
