It's a new year, it's a new life

For the Jewish Rosh Ha'Shana, I want, first off to say I am hoping and praying the current unbearable scenario surrounding the Palestinian state shall come to an end soon. These people deserve their own land, as any other people do. On the other hand, it is not up to them to decide anything regarding the Jewish territories. They must acknowledge their neighboring countries, and treat them respectfully. They should base their economy upon relations with the Arab countries around them, rather than try to (yet again) completely rely on Israel. There must be peace established between the two states, but that doesn't mean anything else much - they shouldn't remain isolated from the world, and should have proper ways where they can reach out... but it is Israel's self-born right to cease integrating them into Israeli-based projects. They should find their way in life.

Else than that, I wanted to remind everyone that Christmas is coming soon, and Xmas is the time where you'll be spending more on gift than ever before.
If you are looking for the "default gift" then you should definitely try sites like Fragrance that helps you decide which specific perfume you'll be buying your loved one, and where to buy it so Christmas will not consume a part of your savings (like it usually does). You can try to go always for Creative Christmas Ideas but if you're wife comes throwing you out of the staircase, don't point any fingers at me. I know I am going for normal fashion/clothing/beauty gifts as I always do.

Happy Rosh Ha'Shana! Stay safe.

Did facebook take Muybarak down?

I heard some opinions (this is a selection of a few) about what was the role of Facebook in the latest happenings in Egypt. I think the internet as a whole allowed people to communicate and they have done so priorly to the Facebook times. Sure Facebook was the tool but I am certain forums and local sites written in Arabic could claim to have at least the same affect.

Instability in Egypt

Looks like the veteran president Mubarak is going home or at least is being called by the people of his nation to step off the stage and make room for a new, real democrat (in the sense of being of supporter of Democracy and not being a member of one party or the other).

The thing is that such scenarios are abused by people of interest that have deep rooted desire to reign the country. The ones that fulfill such desires are usually the ones that offer a quick and non realistic solution. The ones that are supposedly representing the nation. Extremist like the national socialist party in Germany of the 1930's, or Muslim extremists in nowadays world (same as happened in Iran).
These are Muslim that will turn away from the states in terms of national affairs, will support terrorism against Israel and wouldn't keep the borders somewhat safe upon their part of it. These are Muslims that use religion as a devastating bargaining chip in the game of politics.

Should anyone interfere with Egypt's domestic affairs - I strongly believe we must, even if we will be acting against the will of the people, which is morally the most important factor there is, we will find ourselves in a world that consists of more blood shed which opposes another human right - the right to live in a peaceful way.

The greater good is just a theoretical, rhetorical term - it's OUR (the western countries residents) good that should come into being right now.

Israel Palestine leaked documents

The UK BBC reports that the Palestinians deny that the leaked documents are indeed true.

I would assume that this amount of documents, published by a respectable network like Al Jazeera, is not likely to be made-up.

Can we learn something from this strong denial? We most certainly can. The split governmental situation we see in Gaza, where both parties have their own "areas of effect" and none can claim that they make up the calls is leading every process to a dead end.

If the prime minister or his surroundings don't feel like disclaiming such details, because they obviously fear the public reaction, it means that the offer wasn't valid from the very first moment. Like past agreement that has been made with the reigning party in the west bank and the Gaza strip, this one was bound to fail as well, and Israel was wise by not getting sucked into such a redundant proccess.
