And I even stayed home from school. Heh, like it made any difference. If anything, I feel worse. But writing it here's not going to fix it. I need meds. But I don't take medicine, I think my immune system should secure itself. If it gets serious, I will. But if not, I'm staying au naturelle.
I can hear Maggie now, saying, "HIPPIE!" Well, so what if I am? Edwards still won. *sticks tongue out* Actually, I don't like them both at all (I mean Cheney & Edwards) Actually, I don't like anyone running for prez & vp. That is really sad. The more the debates go on, the more I hate them all.
It's because they HATE Palestinians. I'm sorry, but I'm Arab, and I think both countries should get land. But I hate it that while the Israeli government, headed by an asshole--Ariel Sharon--says they want peace, and then go knock down several thousand Palestinian homes on their land. Do you know how many people have died? Why, I'll tell you. This is from ifamericansknew.org.
The US gives $15,139,178 per day to the Israeli government & military, and only $568,744 per day to the Palestinian NGO's.
Israel has been targeted by 65 UN resolutions+ UN resolutions, while Palestinians have been targeted by NONE.
989 Israelis and 3,307 Palestinians have been killed since September 29, 2000.
6,709 Israelis and 27,839 Palestinians have been injured since September 29, 2000.
The Israeli unemployment rate is 10.4%, while the Palestinian unemployment is estimated at 37-67%.
112 Israeli children have been killed by Palestinians and 613 Palestinian children have been killed by Israelis since September 29, 2000.
1 Israeli home has been destroyed by Palestinians and 2,202 Palestinian homes have been completely destroyed (14,436 partially destroyed) since September 29, 2000.
60+ new Jewish-only settlements have been built on confiscated Palestinian land between March 2001 and July 11, 2003. There have been 0 cases of Palestinians confiscating Israeli land and building settlements.
And yet we're helping the people who are screwing innocent people over. Does that make sense? Not to me.
Oh, now I just feel worse. BUGGER.
Love, Amanda
