great stuff thanks
This is so sad I am totally lost for words :(
I heard on the news here that the Israeli's are going to intensify the bombings of Beirut and bomb a bigger perimeter there :( I wish that the international community will wake up and help put an end to this. I hope you guy’s stay safe and your spirits will stay unbroken I amazing to see how you cope with this horror around you. Keep up the good work :)
'Islamic Art At The V&A.
The specially commissioned ‘symphonic poem’ performed at the opening night of the Jameel Gallery was “Synergy”, composed by Lebanese Oussama Rahbani. Roumanian conductor Ion Marin led the London Philharmonic Orchestra with specialist Lebanese musicians and the London Philharmonic Choir.' Lebanese artists flew to London in spite of the aerial bombardment (except for 4 of them, who were scared to leave their families.) Strange that you won't find anything about this on the net. I wonder if the LPO and LPC are scared of falling out with rich Jewish donors. (Sorry that was a cynical and not very peaceful thought.) Power to your elbow Finkployd
"GOD WILLING" (...in-shalla...)
"...in-shalla..." ONE DAY I WILL COME TO LEBANON AND SEE HER BEAUTIFULL FACE,FEEL THE SOFT TOUCH OF HER OCEAN BREEZE AND WET MY LIPS WITH HER ICE COLD TEARS THAT COME ROLLING DOWN FROM HER PEAKS."...in-shalla..." I WILL BE BLESSED ONE DAY WITH A MOMENT OF INTIMACY, HER AND I ALONE.AS I GAZE INTO THE STARS AS IF THEY WHERE HER BRIGHT EYES AND BREATHE HER PINE SENTED AIR AS IF IT WERE HER BREATH."...in-shalla..." WHEN MY "ONE STEP CLOSER TO DEATH", HAS BECOME MY LAST . SHE WOULD WRAP HERSELF AROUND ME EVER SO LOVINGLY AND I WOULD DISSOLVE INTO HER ROOTS SPROUTING INTO AN EAGER SAPLING. HER HEAVENLY RAINS AND WARM SUNSHINE SMILES AND I WILL GROW TO BE TALL AND STRONG. FOREVER WILL I BE PROTECTED BY ALL WHO STAND WITH ME AND SEE ME."...in-shalla..." HER STRONG DARK ROOTED GREEN HAIR,WHICH IS KNOWN TO US AS THE "CEDARS" WILL NEVER GREY. MICHAEL SLEIMAN
Dear Juju,
Thank you for the great news. I knew from Oussama Rahbani anout the planned concert, I asked about attending the event , as I am not leaving in Lebanon, but the V& A they said that is a private event.Then Oussama said that only people list on the list can attend it. On 3rd of July I went to Romania, and after what happend to Oussama (the attack) and because of the war it was impossible to contact him.I was wondering if he made it or not.....but good to know that this had happend. I am so happy, as a Romanian, the the conductor worked it out with Oussama. Now I am in New York and v difficult to get in touch with lebanon, in order to congratulate him. Do you have any other details about that??You can send me an e-mail if you please. Thank you for posting the news.....
Hmmm, Beirut doesn't look like a city at war on this pictures. I've heard it's been bombed every single day? Another lie?
Yeah, well there isn't that many people out on the streets either, hmm, i wonder why? Maybe it's the threat of an Isreali shell/bomb dropping down on your ass...the memorial is a beautiful display of the horror we inflict on children with our uncaring use of war to solve our disputes.
Hey fink, thanks for showing me the real shit thats going on over there, it's kinda filtered over here, with all "Talking Heads" putting their two-cents in.
you are a sick person...have you not been watching the news and seeing the numbers?? are you that brainwashed?? when 400 kids have been killed in 3 weeks you can make a comment like that...that is just like saying the holocaust was a big lie
Gee, I guess the streets in Tel Aviv are not showing any signs of bombs either (YET)
As all zonists in the world, you're nothing but a heartless person ...
If one can feel nothing, while he see those images, then one is not able to feel as a human.
Poor human.
Ces photos hantent nos nuits. Puisse des dirigeants, des responsables, des je ne sais quoi s'attendrir et stopper le massacre commis par des irresponsables, des gens pétris de haine sans âme ni conscience.
Encore trois fois le nombre de morts actuels de cette mini-guerre, et on aura atteint le bilan du 11 septembre. C'est impressionant...
Mini-guerre?? Apparament, tu les aimes bien grosses,tes guerres.Pauvre de toi,sancoeur,aveugle que tu es par la haine et l'esprit de vengeance qui charecterise ton espece!
Et puis une question:Qu'est que tu fais ici?pourquoi ne vas tu pas sur un blog israelien pour leur dire a quel point tu les trouves mous dans leur facon de brutaliser un pays.? Qu'est ce que tu viens faire?satistaire tes pulsions sadiques?pourquoi ne vas tu pas rejoindre les 600 juifs francais partis d"defendre"leur "pays"menace dans son exitence meme(vous me faites rire si ce n'etait tragique)...Le seul pays au moyen orient capable reellement d'aneantir un autre est celui d'Israel.Tu crois serieusement que le hizbollah est capable de le faire, avec des katiouchas???meme l'iran?Parcqu'ils le disent?Ah oui ils le disent ,ca doit donc etre vrai?Je croyais qu'il ne fallait pas les croire...Tu es pathetique!Vas sur un autre blog,mec,t'as rien a faire ici,les seuls juifs a qui j'ai envie de parler ces jours ci sont ceux qui viennent pour dialoguer d'une facon saine et civilisee,non pas des va-t-en guerre tares.Je ne leur demanderai meme pas d'etre de mon avis,bien au contaire,mais pas des racistes haineux,des juifs d'extreme droite malades!!!
Et combien de civils innocents le Hizb'Allah a-t'il assassiné dans sa "carrière" ?
Mini-guerre? Apparamment tu les aimes bien grosses, tes guerres?Pauvre de toi,sanscoeur,aveugle que tu es par la haine et l'esprit de vengeance qui characterisent
les gens de ton espece!Et puis qu'est est tu viens faire ici?satisfaire tes pulsions de malade sadique,verifier si'ils souffrent autant que tu le desires?! pourquoi ne vas tu pas sur un blog israelien leur dire que tu les trouves un peu mous mous dans leur facon de reduire un pays a un tas de gravas?pas assez d'enfants morts,vous rigolez ou quoi?Et puis mieux, pourquoi ne vas tu pas rejoindre les juifs francais partis pour "defendre" leur pays menace dans son" existence meme"?Tu crois serieusement que hizbollah risque d'aneantir israel avec ses katiouchas de bazar?Meme l'iran?Faut etre tare pour croire a ses balivernes?Le seul pays capable d'aneantir un autre au proche orient est Israel(plus de 200 tetes nuclaires)mais chut!faut pas trop le dire.Pourquoi viens tu ici polluer l'atmosphere? C'est INDECENT! INDECENT! de venir ici pour dire des insanites.Les seuls juifs a qui j'ai envie de parler ces jours ci ce sont ceux viennent ici dans l'intention d'entamer un dialogue positif ,sain,civilise, intelligent,toutes choses que ne sembles pas posseder,et je ne leur demande pas d'etre de mon avis,bien au contraire!salete!!Ras le bol des gens d'extreme droite haineux que rien ne semble apaiser leur esprit revanchard et raciste!!Tout mon souhait c'est que ta haine t'etoufferale plus lentement possible comme c'est toujours le cas!Paix,tout de meme, meme avec des gens de ta sorte!
No, I DEFINITELY REMEMBER 9-11-2001, however, there was no Fucking warning, there was no diplomatic intervention, there was no "U.N." resolution, and I was at work like everybody else watching the nearby TV saying "Oh shit now WTF?".
Now I see this shit going on over there(Lebanon) and on the FOXNEWS and wondering where the hell are all our 60"s Hippies gone, with all their "Peace Love & Happiness"...Oh yeah that's right, they're fighting for power in the next election to see who can fuck over the colored(and by that i mean any one not of their race) people and yet forward their agenda. OH YEAH MIDDLE EASTERN PEOPLE welcome to DEMOCRACY! sorry for another disallusioned american RANT but I'm tired and it's late, the irs has fckd with my pay for the last month and i'm just glad at the end of the day i can go home to my family and kiss my . two girls and wife goodnight. I really wish I could do more for you poor Lebanon, but my wiccan hands can only pray for you. BLESSED BE! "GREYRAVEN"
partout dans le monde les femmes font leur possible pour avoir des enfants,des fois les femmes ne se marient que juste pour avoir des enfants!et chez nous au liban les enfants son piétinés,ecrasés comme des fourmis!est ce un monde cruel,ou un monstre israelo américain cruel?!
ON VEUT LA PAIX!

it's all about the patterns walid.
when votes come in 'odd' patterns - there's generally a concern over the legitimacy of the votes :)
that's how fraud is detected in real world elections.
Thu, 11.02.2010 15:46
This shows:
1- Someone has taken this too seriously.
2- The guy behind this blog is not happy with the fake election results.
3- He knows nothing about twitter and how networking works beca [...]

Thu, 11.02.2010 15:13
walid, this isn't about the outcome, but about the method.
some people would argue that the end justifies the means. this is very common in certain cultures, one of which happens to be ours.
