I have come to noticed more and more from media that the word ‘Terrorist’ is used very lightly on everyone who goes against the norm in which violence is used. However, when it is committed by a political ally against a population, it is called a war against terrorism, defencing their own country from ‘terror’ attacks. I got a little annoyed after watching many hours of Al-Jazeera and it was on and on about what happened in Gaza a year ago. I remember I was in Sri Lanka last year doing the same thing, lying there on the sofa watching Al Jazeera in the hotel reporting on the war in Gaza. Sometimes you feel so helpless. However, I just watched this particular documentary: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UChWtlMGBJ0. You can watch it on the embedded objects below as well. I urge you very strongly to watch this. I think it is an obligation as human to do something somehow for them:
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Part 4
Today is the first time Karachi where I visited at the age of 9 is bombed. Finally…the south of Pakistan is also attacked. I think if we are to use the word ‘terrorists’ for suicide bombers…which I do believe they are. Then anyone who terrorise people’s lives irregardless of whether they are part of a government or not should be called acts of terrorism.
