looked through it, seemd a lot of people
passing around craziness...
perhaps when things are hard to understand
or bear everyone begins to invent something
according to their measure.

I have quite a few close friends working in the U.N. and as journalists who are stationed all over the Middle East... so I know much better than to just blindly believe whatever the media releases as being the entire truth. It's much better to get as many "facts" for yourself, or to analyze as many perspectives as possible, and deduce from that what seems to have most likely taken place. Of course I will never know the real truth about anything that goes on over there, I'd rather take all sides into consideration than buy into something that is already a little suspicious.

In the end people try to believe
what they wish to...and what will fit
into their(our)worldview.
but as to this as a whole may there
be something like peace before long.

As war with ourselves and each other injurs one and many, so humanity is affected as a whole. May we find resolution within our hearts and bring it to the world around us, in hoping that someday we might not resort to such brutality.

I don't believe any media source is free of bias. That said...any statement or opinion could be called a "perspective," and all are not, in my mind, equally credible or valid.

Ok. Well that's why I said it's best to gather as much information as possible.
