Western barbarism

Each time I try to think of holiness of the "holy land" I feel sick in my stomach. What the hell is going on that part of the world? I might be a primitive primate or if you like a kaffir but I certainly can differentiate between a cause that serves a greater good. Arabs' cause to annihilate Israel will certainly breed nothing in as much as Israel's continued offensive will not bring any good but pain and suffering to both sides.

Schooling or formal education came to many Africans, if not all, from the western civilization. Hence terms like mutual-ism  sharing or jointly were introduced to us . Not to say Africans did not know about these terms. They did but in their vernacular languages. They were practicing them and continue to do so even today. However, very confusing is that many white people (western civilization) knowingly do not practice these terms.

Colonization of Africa came with dismemberment, brutal slavery and even selling of people to other parts of the world. In India it came with Kashmir and Pakistan, in Southeast Asia it came with the partition of North and South Korea. In China it gave birth to Hong Kong as a separate state. In Irag it came with Kuwait. In Palestine is simply excelled, it took the whole state.In Australia, no words to describe, a complete uprooting of aboriginal people. In the process of all these many lives were lost and to some parts like Israel and "Palestine" lives continue to be wasted.

It therefore leads me to question as to what is civilize about western civilization?  I really would like to know. Africa never had Africa war but western civilization had "World war I and II" which was in fact stupid European wars driven by greed and selfishness.

If one could carefully look at parts of the world that remain not fully conquered by the west is middle-east. In my humble opinion Israel is being used as an excuse by the west to keep their foot in the oil rich middle-east. It is unfortunate that Jews are exploited this way and they do not see it.

Worse, Jews are simply justifying and christening holocaust. I just think that wherever Hitler's soul feels peace and accomplishment. He really feels he did Germans a great job because had he not did what he did Jews would be doing exactly what they are doing today to Palestinians to Germans.

Why can't they share the country? I believe Marx was right, indeed religion is the opium( drug) of the masses. Once they are on this drug nothing make sense and life turns into nothing. This is exactly what is happening in the middle-east. They are chasing god that do not exist leaving the One who love and care for life.
