I'm passing this along form a freind, that worked and lived with his family in Saudi Arabia for 12 years, and decided it was getting to scary to be an American in the Middle East by 1996, and left. --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ho hum -- just another routine arrest of a ten-year-old in the middle of the night. Beat on the door sometime past midnight, terrorize the whole family, point rifles at them, shine lights in their faces and take away their kids. The IDF (Israeli Defense Force) seems to have learned from Gestapo history and then improved on their tactics. Why the middle of the night ? Obviously to add to the terror just like when they come in the middle of the night to bulldoze a house after giving the residents 5 minutes to get out with whatever they can carry.. If you see the film Five Broken Cameras you will see live video of these noble soldiers coming in the middle of the night to arrest terrified little, and I mean little pre-teen children, and take them away blindfolded and in handcuffs ! Absolutely incredible, amazing and disgusting. And all possible thanks to our uncritical support. And we wonder why they hate us ? And we wonder where "terrorists" come from ? We create them ! https://peacenow.org/entries/stop_ignoring_how_routine_the_occupation_has_become #.UZKpOMpTGhQ ------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- LAAMN: Los Angeles Alternative Media Network --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe: <mailto:laamn-unsubscr...@egroups.com> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe: <mailto:laamn-subscr...@egroups.com> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Digest: <mailto:laamn-dig...@egroups.com> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Help: <mailto:laamn-ow...@egroups.com?subject=laamn> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post: <mailto:la...@egroups.com> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archive1: <http://www.egroups.com/messages/laamn> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archive2: <http://www.mail-archive.com/laamn@egroups.com> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yahoo!
