Farida Magdalena Gillot Prof. Norman Finkelstein

In my opinion prof Finkelstein is totally right. As long as the public opinion is loyal to those who carefully planned every war and every peace, every genocide and every revolution. As long as consciousness is rocked to sleep by justified wars and tears-mongering memorials, people who really suffred during every war and suppression are silenced. I found a video of the genocide that took place in Canada and that shows again that the same group, who planned the misery in the w… Continue

M. Ashaq Malik International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women - November 25

25 November has been designated as the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women by the UN General Assembly - resolution 54/134 of 17 December 1999. Women's activists have marked 25 November as a day against violence since 1981. This day (date) came into existence from the brutal assassination of the three Mirabal sisters, political activists in the Dominican Republic in 1960, on the orders of Dominican ruler Rafael Trujillo (1930-1961).

Farida Magdalena Gillot Rabindranath Tagore

From me,

for you all, brave children to endure these harsh times
a poem from Rabindranath Tagore:

Let your life come amongst them like a flame of light, my child,
unflickering and pure, and delight them into silence.

They are cruel in their greed and their envy,
their words are like hidden knives thirsting for blood.

Go and stand amidst their scowling hearts, my child,
and let your gentle eyes fall upon them like the
forgiving peace of the… Continue
