Hatred & War, or Love & Peace - To end the attrocities we must STOP voting for the two main parties in UK & USA. We have to chose, but there will NEVER be lasting peace at home so long as we are murdering & brutalising innocent civilians abroad.
US Military bases relevant to Iran!
WHO IS THREATENING WHO? - IRAN NEVER INITIATED AN ATTACK ON ANY NEIGHBOUR IN MODERN HISTORY.
Please don't leave it up to our politicians. True democracy is where citizens vote in the government (that's the easy bit) and then maintain the incredible hard work of persuading them to do the right thing for humanity, not for pure national interest.
We are always ready to (rightly) criticize the armed resistance against a cruel, cruel oppression and illegal occupation, but how many of us are equally willing to add our voice of support to the far more courageous methods of peaceful resistance - it's frequently like lying down and allowing your enemy to beat you and not retaliating with violence when you see your son die of an asthma attack at a checkpoint, because the f***ing Israeli soldier won't let him pass to get to a hospital - because HE ISN'T JEWISH.

As Gaza Plunges into Darkness, Israeli and Palestinian Fighters-Turned-Peace-Activists Speak OutThe United Nations is accusing Israel of collectively punishing the Palestinian population in Gaza by cutting off fuel supplies as part of a blockade of the Gaza Strip. In the midst of the deepening crisis, we speak with Israeli and Palestinian peace activists Yonatan Shapira and Bassam Aramin. They are from a group called Combatants for Peace that is made up of former fighters from both Israel and the Occupied Territories. Shapira is a former captain in the Israeli Air Force and Black Hawk pilot squadron. Aramin was an armed member of Fatah and spent seven years in an Israeli prison. His ten-year-old daughter Abir was shot dead by an Israeli soldier last year.
