Bless your compassionate heart for this, Katii!

(Sorry I can only send one star.)

So true, Parsifal, a JUST Peace is the only solution.

Friday January 27, 2012, 12:18 pm
Everyone knows what justice is because it hits us at our core. It is time for the people of every nation to take power back and live in harmony, so that all may live. Thank you so much for this.

Friday January 27, 2012, 12:54 pm
Charles has also sent this along, thanks for posting. It will be hard for deniers to dispute what this shows, though they may try, but we will continue to call for a just peace.

Friday January 27, 2012, 1:04 pm
Peace please.

Friday January 27, 2012, 1:11 pm
The more forces are used to diminish & degrade the more the masses will rise! The younger generation are well aware what is going on & they are not going to stand for this insanity! They will make their stand & we will rise! All deserve Justice & Freedom. YES we are ONE & UNITED! Thanks Katii.

Friday January 27, 2012, 3:06 pm
Sue, it was Charles who brought this video to my attention, for which I'm grateful :)

Friday January 27, 2012, 3:36 pm
Thanks Katii and Carole for the forward. Why is it that there is always a huge difference between what the people want and what governments want/do? Kudos to these young conscientious objects. Agree with Parsifal...in the end, sanity and justice will prevail.

Friday January 27, 2012, 4:02 pm
Thank you Katti and C for the forward. Hopefully the next time a country wants to start a war, no one will show up....keep on objecting!

Friday January 27, 2012, 4:10 pm
Thanks for postin g this great article Katii!

Friday January 27, 2012, 6:33 pm
Thank you Katti and Just "C" for the forward and information on the news!

Friday January 27, 2012, 6:36 pm
Jeepers Even I could not send Parsidal a star! Goodness thought for sure I could take care of the STARS!

Friday January 27, 2012, 6:42 pm

Well, you got one from me, Marilynn . . . and thank you for taking the time to appreciate this posting.

Thank you for sharing with us.

Saturday January 28, 2012, 2:38 am
I too have received from Charles and viewed this before, so thanks so much Katii for posting this extraordinarily meaningful video message here!
We need to thank not only the many brave Israelis, -especially those great kids- but also India and that channel for making it available to us .

Saturday January 28, 2012, 4:49 am
noted...Thanks Katti & Carole...=)

Saturday January 28, 2012, 5:29 am
Thanks Carole for the forward. I believe strongly in 'Truth will overcome Falsehood'. No more can the zionist
Israeli Regime continue with spreading lies and falsehood to the world, with the help of the american
Government and its mainstream medias!

Btw, WHERE ARE PARSIFAL's COMMENTS?????

Saturday January 28, 2012, 7:00 am
Just peace is possible. Amritanandamayi (you can google her), participated in a meeting in Europe of Israeli and Palestinian women. At first they were defensive and maybe a little hostile - there had been so much pain on both sides. After a while they were embracing each other and crying as they discovered their common humanity.
I've never yet met anyone in whom I could not see his or her humanity.
Good on them!

Saturday January 28, 2012, 8:17 am
Surely this cannot come as any surprise to anyone who knows Jews or has Jewish friends.
Jews are neither better nor nor worse than anyone else. They are no more evil or bad than christians, muslims, hindus, sikhs etc.
Most jews are as appalled and disturbed at the many crimes of the Israelis as is the rest of the world.
All people of conscience must stand together and denounce Israeli barbarism, and we must tell our elected representatives of our feelings. We must also stop supporting Israeli terrorism by buying Israeli goods in the shops.
Always check where your shopping comes from, and if it comes from Israel, reject it, and tell the shopkeeper why you are rejecting it.
If you buy goods or services from Israeli companies and individuals, you are facilitating mass murder, torture, theft and the countless injustices that the Israelis pile upon the people whose land they have stolen and occupy in direct violation of innumerable UN and international laws - not to mention the laws and mores of civilised people everywhere.
BOYCOTT ISRAEL NOW.

Saturday January 28, 2012, 8:24 am
These brave Jews "get it". Peace and justice must be for everyone. Good for them!

Saturday January 28, 2012, 8:52 am
Wonderful video, thanks. Sharing it.

Saturday January 28, 2012, 9:08 am
"Btw, WHERE ARE PARSIFAL's COMMENTS?????" -Mary P

Good Question!!! Is C2 - or someone - censoring Parsifal? Do we have a childish little "flagger" running around after Parsifal getting his posts deleted? Not acceptable.

Care2? Do you know what's going on? I know that this has happened to Parsifal before in the very recent past.

Saturday January 28, 2012, 9:42 am
NOTED...........

Saturday January 28, 2012, 9:47 am
Quite frankly whether anyone cares to believe it or HIS-TORY, GOD! Israel belongs to Israel and should NEVER be given over to the Palestinians!!! It is NOT their land. I also believe that Israel needs to get off their butts and just blow the hell out of these terrorists once and for all and call it a damn day! Ask yourselves people.....Why in the hell does NO other Arabic nation want them and take them in? because they are nomadic gypsy terrorists...THAT'S WHY!!!

Saturday January 28, 2012, 11:28 am
Parsifal gets deleted yet people who speak racist hate-mongering BS are allowed to post. go figure....

FYI: The part of the planet that is now known as Israel HIS-STORICALLY had been occupied much longer by others than Jews. Look it up. Anyone who knows their HIS-STORY would know this and not quote BS from the Bible as if that were the be all end all.

Saturday January 28, 2012, 12:07 pm
Thank you, Katii!

terrorists...THAT'S WHY!!!

Thank you, Elaine, for offering us such a vivid introduction to the nature of Zionism.

Zionists have been given every advantage:
* They are held above the law and beyond criticism
* They have received $150,000,000,000 from U.S. taxpayers
* The U.S. covers up for them at the U.N. and elsewhere
* The U.S. makes war in their behalf
* They have tens of millions of adoring slaves here in the U.S.

And still, in the last 64 years, with all of these advantages, they have not brought us even one inch closer to peace.

How long do you think it will take for this race-based ideology to "work"? 100 years? 1000 years? How long do you want us to keep trying something that keeps failing?

The truth is that Zionism will NEVER work. It's based on forcibly dividing Jews and non-Jews, creating a separate ghetto-state for each. This forcible division breeds mistrust and war. If people cannot get along as individuals, how can they get along as hostile states?

America refutes the fundamental premise of Zionism. Here in America, under a philosophy that gives the individual primacy over tribe and state, Jews and non-Jews alike have found security and prosperity.

Palestine, prior to the Zionist take-over, demonstrated the same thing: Muslims, Jews and Christians have lived together in peace for over a thousand years. Intractable strife began when the Zionists invaded from Europe and used terror and war to impose their "Jewish State" on the native people.

Millions of Palestinians have been living under military occupation and bombardment for the last 44 years.

If millions of Jews were being treated this way, what would you think of the occupying regime? What would you feel when the regime invades your towns and bombs your universities and hospitals and leaves you with no escape? War is mega-terror.

From the start, the Zionists have sought to eradicate the native people. 95% of the killing in Palestine and 100% of the occupying is done by Israel. And independent studies show that most cycles of violence are initiated by Israel.

I encourage you to do your own research. 25 years ago, I was a fan of Israel. Like most Americans, my information came from /Exodus/ and the masked-media. Then I gained access to first-hand information about the occupation. What I learned left me shocked and horrified, and everything I've learned since has only confirmed my horror.

Ideology is a form of insanity. The physical damage that Zionists has inflicted on Palestinians is horrifying, but the spiritual damage they have inflicted on themselves is just as chilling. This is absolutely needless! Repudiate the demented ideology and return to the way things were before the Zionist take-over: Muslims, Jews and Christians living together as individuals.

We need to learn how to co-exist as individuals. Building a 24-foot-high concrete wall around ourselves and sealing ourselves off in a "Homeland" ghetto only postpones the need for maturation.

Thank you, Charles!

Re Charles' reply to Elaine A.

Cheers Charles for providing a voice of reason and facts in answer to bigotry and lies.

BOYCOTT ISRAEL NOW.

Saturday January 28, 2012, 1:46 pm
The IDF rules! Palestinians suck!

Saturday January 28, 2012, 2:30 pm

Hmmmmmmmmm. A "froggie," who -- coincidentally -- just joined today,and has no friends (nor time to acclimate herself to the site), jumps immediately to THIS article to post a pro-IDF comment.

(Doesn't take a genius to figure THAT out.)

Saturday January 28, 2012, 6:17 pm
You nailed that one Carole...Thanks for the forward...Peace, not War is the answer...

Saturday January 28, 2012, 8:01 pm
And those frogs without previous history on care2 spit hate, bigotry and ignorance... sooo boring!

Sunday January 29, 2012, 5:37 am
I noted this as soon as I got Carole's alert the other day but haven't had time to come back since.

"Netanyahu Is the Main Obstacle to Peace": Israeli Code Pink Activist Disrupts Israeli PM Speech to US Congress-
Jewish-American peace activist of Israeli descent Rae Abileah explains on DN! why she disrupted speech via nonviolent civil disobedience. Also- Dr. M Barghouti, PalestinianNat Initiative SG, Palestinian Medical Relief Society President &Palestinian Legislative Council member on dashed hopes following Netanyahu's speech
of a just Mideast peace agreement

includes link to Al Jazeera blog: "...within the overwhelmingly partisan chamber there was, rather unexpectedly, a heckler. We didn't get to see her, barely even heard her yell "stop the occupation" before she was tackled to the ground by AIPAC members" & then dragged away by police.
(She had to be hospitalized... )

& link to Gideon Levy's piece "Netanyahu's speech to Congress shows America will buy anything" - "The man who explicitly said he would do his level best to destroy the Oslo Accords suddenly says he's in favor of peace with the Palestinians." Excerpt :

Levy also calls it "The Speech of the Death of Peace" -- tragic! And our stupid Congress people applauded all the lies!!

"It was an address with no destination, filled with lies on top of lies and illusions heaped on illusions. Only rarely is a foreign head of state invited to speak before Congress. It's unlikely that any other has attempted to sell them such a pile of propaganda and prevarication, such hypocrisy and sanctimony as Benjamin Netanyahu did yesterday.

The fact that the Congress rose to its feet multiple times to applaud him says more about the ignorance of its members than the quality of their guest's speech. An Israeli presence on the Jordan River - cheering. Jerusalem must remain the united capital of Israel - applause. Did American's elected representatives know that they were cheering for the death of possibility? If America loved it, we're in big trouble."

Sunday January 29, 2012, 6:03 am
Very good video, mixing as it does, so many voices, including the brave young Israeli conscientious objectors.

I was happy to see Chomsky & Kucinich, too, & hear what they had to say, but I was unable to recognize the congressman who spoke after them. Could s.o. please help?

Sunday January 29, 2012, 8:13 am
> I was happy to see Chomsky & Kucinich, too, & hear what they had to say, but I was unable to recognize the congressman who spoke after them. Could s.o. please help?

Ron Paul spoke after Dennis Kucinich.

We Americans are conquered because we insist on remaining divided -- into "Left" and "Right". However good Kucinich and Paul may be on the critical issues of our time, the "Left" will not vote for Paul and the "Right" will not vote for Kucinich. We put political geometry above integrity, and end up with Bush, Obama, and perpetual war-making.

Sunday January 29, 2012, 8:52 am
IDF (illegal Death Force) - the name reeks of 'Terrorism'. The Zionist Israeli
Regime together with the American government are the biggest State
'Terrorists' of the World (they don't murder one or two , but millions of innocent people)
and are a constant threat to World Peace, with
their love for wars and destruction of human lives all over the world!

So Elaine, please redirect your frustrations at the above two Evil State Terrorists (israel and america) if you
need to " just blow the hell out of these terrorists once and for all and call it a damn day!"

Care2 what is your problem? Why are you deleting Parsifal's comments? Parsifal contributes
A wealth of true information on Care2, instead of sending GOLD Stars to him, you REWARD this brilliant and
Hard working Contributor by DELETING his Invaluable comments!

Yet you keep hateful, bigoted and distasteful comments of hatemongers!!!

Elaine:

For someone who claims to be serving God, it seems a tad ungodly to be calling for Israel to "blow the hell out of these terrorists". Does that mean you want the state of Israel to commit suicide, as their actions certainly fall within the definition of terrorism?

How is this NOT their land as you claim? On some biblical bs that the Jewish people are God's chosen people?

So you find it Christian to call for the killing off of a whole population based on a biblical land claim. I am not a Christian, but know enough that your rhetoric has nothing to do with Christianity, but everything to do with colonialism, imperialism and racism.
