Thanks for the Food/Clothing Drive

January 10, 2009 2 Comments

Greetings,

I want to start by thanking everyone who did or tried to help in the (Food-Clothing-Drive) campaign, this is the minimum we can accomplish for those whom no accomplishment would have been reached without; “Gaza and our people in Gaza.”

To be honest; I don’t share thoughts a lot in a wide range, I mean; its not like I’m just picking a theme to write about, or I ran out of ideas! NO;this time I’m gloomy; sick of all the nonsense happening around us and all we do is accepting not to be accepted.

Away from philosophies, and cliche’s we hear all the time; the situation is becoming a bit hard to understand. Seeing our brothers and sisters,families and relatives getting slaughtered in that brutal way,is growing to be more than just news,no;it’s drifting to be the only cause of our Nation’s elimination that we watch silently;then we nod our heads trying to hide our Defeat & Ignominy!!!

Words won’t help us any more,nor the literalism of writing!!…
Actions must be taken by leaders,but the DROLL is that we have NONE!!…

ALAS guys!!! let us stop mocking ourselves By Crawling in the tails of POLITICS, PATROIASM, FACTIONALISM..For GOD sake;lets us fight at least for once,in the name of HUMANITY!!!

“GOD ALMIGHTY have decided our destiny,but he always gives us a CHOICE..” !!

- Dulama Hamad

    Congratulations on the wonderful networking around the crisis in Gaza – and it worked.
    Well, we know so many truckloads of needed items got into Palestine…but what I’d love to know more about and in more detail is if the Gazans in need are actually receiving the goods?
    There have been some discouraging reports about UNRWA drivers being hijacked by armed robbers who steal the relief supplies and put them on sale in the suq.
    Without going into who could possibly be doing such an evil deed over the bodies of suffering people, I am asking 7iber and other journalists to dig into this story.
    Total up the numbers of aid trucks going in and try to get some figures on how many got to their planned destinations inside Gaza!
    People who worked hard to collect, pack and send the supplies need to be assured that they are ending up in the right hands – the hands of the suffering families.
    Thanks for looking into that…and congratulations also on winning your web award!
