One of those days when your dad leaves the house and locks the door as he leaves. You begin to vacuum the house because a guest will be coming soon and also, to convince your mother that you have been productive whilst being at home alone.

Then you hear a knock at the door and presumably think that it's your dad whose forgotten something at home. You take a look through the eye piece and it's someone other than your father so you panic because the house keys aren't anywhere near.

You think it'll be okay to ignore the knock at the door, but realise that you were vacuuming the passage so anyone on the other side of the door would have heard it and you also realise that when you heard the knock at the door, you tried pushing the handle down just in case it wasn't locked.

Palestinian political prisoner and resistance icon SAMER ISSAWI was released today (23-12-13) after spending over 17 months in an Israeli prison. He's said to be the "the longest hunger striker in history".

Alhamdulillah he's free to go and upon his release, he says "Now, we need to fast for the others. Never forget, Zionists hold dozens of men and women without charge, many still on hunger strike".

All those who campaigned for his release will now realise that all their efforts and support for him, paid off. But it doesn't stop here... Free Free Palestine!!

 

 

The Matrix

Morpheus: .."You’re here because you know something. What you know, you cannot explain but you feel it. You felt it your entire life. You don’t know what it is, but it’s there like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad. It is this feeling that has brought you to me. Do you know what i am talking about? 

Neo: ‘The Matrix’

Morpheus: Do you want to know what it is?

The matrix is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work,  when you go to church, when you pay your taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth.
