Just been browsing MPAC and there are a couple of different posts/topics berating groups/societies for not totally focussing on the Gaza issue.
"How dare you have a talk about issue X when there are people dying in Gaza?"
Sounds moronic to me - There are people dying on injustice everyday but at some point people need to also live their own lives.

Why recession can be good time to start business
The UK is officially in recession and the next few months will bring more job losses, more gloomy statistics and more hardship.
But it could also provide an opportunity for some people to start their own business.
In the early 1990s, during the last recession, thousands of people who were made redundant decided to set up on their own.
So for some people, redundancy turned out to be a blessing in disguise.

[quote] Nothing was going to stop rookie PC John Nash getting his first arrest – even when a stick horrifically skewered his eye.
As he was chasing the suspect, John fell into a bush and the six-inch piece of wood pierced right through his face to his brain.
But he bravely ignored the pain, raced after the man and nabbed him as he tried to leap over a fence.
It was only when the suspect turned and said, “Mate, you’ve got to go to hospital†that he realised the extent of his bloody injury.
Doctors told the 25-year-old officer he was lucky to be alive.
PC Nash, who had been in the force for only six days, told how he slipped on a muddy lawn and slid head-first into a bush.
He added: “I was really motoring and I slid into a shrub and I had a ringing in my left ear.
S Ossetia 'war crimes' condemned
Both Russia and Georgia violated the laws of war when they clashed in South Ossetia last August, failing to protect civilians, Human Rights Watch says.
The New York-based international rights organisation has produced a report on the conflict, based on more than 460 interviews done in the region.
The group accuses Georgia of attacking South Ossetia "with blatant disregard for the safety of civilians".
"Indiscriminate" Russian air and ground attacks killed many civilians, it says.
Call for justice
Russia allowed South Ossetian forces to kill, beat, rape and threaten civilians, Human Rights Watch (HRW) says, demanding that those responsible be brought to justice, and their victims compensated...

Since this morning, when I've been trying to post on the revival, its been troublesome. Keeps sayinbg the window has to close. I think they use IE7, i'm typing this with firefox, which I'm not keen on.
[quote]President Barack Obama has made a dramatic departure from the Bush era by announcing the closure of the Guantanamo Bay prison, a ban on harsh interrogation techniques and the end of CIA prisons.
Mr Obama said America would now be "willing to observe core standards of conduct not just when it's easy, but also when it's hard".
He said: "We think that it is precisely our ideals that give us the strength and the moral high ground to be able to effectively deal with the unthinking violence that we see emanating from terrorist organisations around the world.
Infant calls cops to dad's dope plantation
A British Columbia man can consider himself well and truly busted after his 11-month-old son accidentally dialled 911, leading cops to dad's dope plantation.
According to the Canadian Press, Mounties received an emergency call from a residence in White Rock last Friday morning, but "whoever was on the other end of the line hung up". At the house, no one answered the door, so they entered the premises to find a "startled" 29-year-old male who insisted he hadn't made the call.
