Syria is Bleeding

vanachexfortune:

I think we can all agree that our time is moving rapidly toward a crescendo of massive proportions. Last Saturday I came across this group of demonstrators in Time Square, spreading knowledge about the violence and debauchery going on in Syria. I had been totally ignorant to these crimes due to my divorce from big media. This means a complete purge of television, news networks and any form of popular announcement that manipulate the mentality and opinion of the viewer.

In any case, after looking up on the situation; I can’t help but want to take a non interfering role in all of this. It seems to be that when people try to help, they cause more damage than if the individual in need were to solve their issues on their own. It’s true that good service and charity can lead to happiness among people, but I don’t think we’ve mastered how to do this as a global community yet. Creating massive units of soliders, weapons and fighting doesn’t seem to be the answer. None of the current initiatives enforced by the governments of the world seem to work. My conclusion is politics suck. It’s a pipe dream handed out like free drink samples on the street. A game where people aren’t created equal and the rights of respect and honor are traded in for power and greed.

Sounds like toddlers playing hungry hungry hypos



My heart goes out to the Syrian people. I’m sure they will find their solutions as we all are in search of solutions to our problems. Read up more on this topic if it interests you. And if you have anything to add to the subject feel free to talk about in a reblog or reply.

What are your thoughts?

This is what I do on my weekends. I’m part of the Syrian American Council youth group and we were trying to organize a flash mob, but we didn’t have enough people so we ended up doing this in various locations. But we were all actually happy with the results, we got a lot of people informed.

You have people arriving everyday, everyday. Very bad conditions. It’s very scary. The hospital is not very protected. Most of the windows are broken from the blasts,” Daniels says. “The doctors kept working. They look like they don’t even hear the noise of the bombing. They are very brave people.”Photography by; William Daniels.
