Dispacthes: Killing Zone Palestine

Killing Zone Palestine

Palestinian civilians live under the threat of Israeli Defence Force attacks that do not discriminate between militants and children.

Over a five-week stay Journalists document the shooting by Israeli troops of the British peace campaigner Tom Hurndall, the death of James Miller, the award-winning cameraman who worked extensively for Channel 4, killed as he filmed Israeli troops bulldozing Palestinian homes, and the deaths and mutilation of many innocent Palestinians and Israelis.

More than 60,000 people, mostly innocent civilians, have died in the 15-year conflict. Half a million Indian troops are stationed in Kashmir, fighting Pakistani-funded militants who slip across the border to attack the troops but also to terrorise the local population into giving them shelter and assistance.

While both governments talk of peace, Unreported World reveals that, on the ground, very little has changed.

Put Your Thinking Caps On

OK answer the following questions

1-If a tree falls in the forest and there is nobody around does it make a sound?

2-Did the chicken come before the egg?

3-If there’s life after death...Does that mean that there’s death before life?

4-Is the glass half empty or half full?

5-If a man says something in the woods and there are no women there, is he still wrong? :twisted:

6-If all those psychics know the winning lottery numbers, why are they all still working?

7-Why is it that rain drops but snow falls?

8-What IS the best thing since sliced bread?

To Laugh Or Not To Laugh

Ok, so you’re sitting with your mates/members of your family….and they’re saying something mean or rude about someone/something. You know its wrong…but you can’t help but find the comments amusing.

What do you do?

1-Laugh along with them?
2-Hide your smile so that you don’t encourage them?
3-Give them a long lecture?

I’m often in such a situation…my brother and sister are extremely immature (and mean) when they get together. The other day they thought it was funny to make my baby sister cry and capture her crying on the camera phone and then show all her friends.

The Prison Service said Belmarsh had made huge progress in inmate care.

Forced Doctors

Interestingly, for some reason the only suitable careers for Asian children is Medicine.. be it pharmacy, dentistry, optician etc…

Why is that?

When I was 16 and choosing my A levels for sixth form, my dad told me to choose the sciences so that I’d be able to do Medicine in University. Since, I was a little child I’ve been going on and on about wanting to be a teacher when I grow up, any other career choice was not even an option…

I have never had any interest in the sciences, nor did I excel at science and I could never stand the sight of blood.. :?
