Shaped by War: Photographs by Don McCullin

Imperial War Museum
Manchester

Don McCullin is renowned for being one of the greatest war photographers of our time. For most of his life he has been travelling the globe deep into the most dangerous and horrifying situations on earth, taking images of the victims of war, massacres and the destitute. As you enter the exhibition McCullin’s images are not just pictures they portray a world deeply distressed in the harshest of times. One of his most famous pictures is called "Shell Shocked US Marine Vietnam" in which a bedazzled US soldier is grasping a rifle, his eyes seem to be looking at the camera in fact they are acutely lost far beyond the camera lens. The image is a profound and ghastly example of the perils of war and its effect on the human mind.

The treason of David Miliband

Recently A founder of Hamas, Mahmoud al-Mabhouh was assassinated in Dubai - a hit deemed to have been ordered/organised by the Israeli security service, Mossad.

A major sub-plot of this hit was the use of faked passports of European nations - eight of them being faked passports of UK citizens.

This is a concern because having a British passport is a privilege and works as a safety net for British citizens should something go wrong when abroad. If the British Passport loses its credibility, that same security and privilege given to holders of the British passport is reduced.

As the foreign secretary of the UK, David Miliband should be highly concerned when such things happen and should be taking Israel to task over this as it endangers the lives of British citizens.

Shia Sisters

Shia muslim girls are most lovely and loving wives that a man can find on Earth.

Shia women love God, and His Prophet Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon him and his family.

They have a pure heart full of light and peace.
The mind of Shia muslim sister is clean.
It is not influenced by Kafir TV and Western cultures of immorality and nakedness.

Shia girls makes the best homes for their husband and children.

Would all crime be more sensationalised if it was carried out by Muslims?

A while ago, Loonwatch was added to the aggregator on this site.

Along with some good pieces and articles, they also have what may be a series where the titles go something like "person/group X did/said [Fact Y]. What if it was by Muslims?" The message is that these are "shocking stories", but the media does not focus on them simply because they were not done by Muslims.

The argument also seems to ... stink of "self victimisation", playing an angle of us being oppressed. To me atleast.

This type of argument irritates me for some reason. It feels false and I am sure there are also many crimes committed by Muslims which are not sensationalised.
