The Arab Young Generations are Awakened and they will Win
It is true that until the day Tunisia was liberated from Dictatorship, the Arab peoples were living in a stage that can be named “Dark Ages” but since Boazizi made his first move and started the flame of liberty, the Egyptians went out into the streets and ended the days of a dictator, the Bahrainis stood up and said no for Injustice and the Syrians started a fight for justice that continues until this moment…everything changed.
The days of the weak Arab states that were born out of colonialism and given to Individuals to control the destiny of all of those who lived on their lands ended. The Young generations are enlightened and thirsty for justice, Democracy and expressing themselves because of the light they see…a light that
The Young Arab and Palestinian Generations, the coming change and Israel’s Plans
The Palestinian struggle started many years ago and it continues until today to get the Palestinians their rights back. The whole story started simply by taking a land by force and ignoring the presence of those who were living on it. Until today there are many who try to deny the existence of the Palestinian people and its history but for their bad luck reality proves something else.
Following a long armed struggle the Palestinians agreed on letting the gun down and holding the olive tree branch as a sign of peace. Negotiations continued for more seventeen years, Palestinian compromises were given and security was maintained but the only reaction from the Israeli side was more occupation,
Racism and Radicalism In Israel
Since the September 11th attacks on the United States of America, the world witnessed a wide campaign against Islam and Arabs in which they are accused of [singlepic id=452 w=320 h=240 float=right]terrorism and radicalism. Ariel Sharon’s Israeli leadership succeeded in turning the Palestinians from demanders of freedom into terrorists and convinced the world that the Palestinians are only thirsty for blood, killing and are anti-Semites.
Today the whole situation changed and the world is more convinced of the importance of ending the Palestinian suffering by giving them their rights but is this happening in the Israeli community too?
Lately the expressions of racism against Arabs, Palestinians and Africans are increasing within Israel while the Israeli people is watching and sometimes

The accusations against Assange were brought to public with an interest to arrest him shortly after the Wikileaks publication of the American secret diplomatic cables.
Assange’s lawyer, Mark Stephens stated that he believes that Sweden where the allegations of sex crimes are originating, appeared to be manipulated by the US that was angered because of the Wikileaks release of the classified documents. In a statement to Al-Jazeera, Stephens said: “The question is, are the Swedes being manipulated by a third party actor or is there any improper interference,”.
When Motherland calls…the spirit of national action must meet the appeal
One of the most important problems, which came as a phenomenon side by side with the process of building the Palestinian state is corruption. Corruption [singlepic id=277 w=320 h=240 float=right]started to exist not only in financial matters but it also took place in the soul of the national and volunteer action which are supposed to be the basics of the process of building a state and getting freedom.
The Palestinian national movements failed in facing the new stage, which they went through after Oslo accords and the last Parliamentary elections. The
Israel offers to “ease” the blockade on Gaza
After three years of blockade on more than one million and seven hundred Palestinians who live in the Gaza strip,[singlepic id=247 w=280 h=200 float=right] Israel is considering an easement on the entrance to the strip but refuses to end the blockade. The Israeli decision to consider an easement on the entrances to Gaza was made after the worldwide criticism that was made about the Israeli policy regarding the Gaza strip and the late freedom flotilla incident that Israel killed in it nine peace activists while preventing it from reaching Gaza.
When Justice cannot be ignored anymore

Israel decided to release all the activists that it imprisoned because of the pressure that it is facing in the international community. The Turkish government criticized Israel, accused it of state terrorism and threatened not to examine turkey’s patience. The United States government faced some complications in
