What touched me the more are the terrible words of the (Palestinian?) child who said : "you couldn't live here". HE, live here and have a high probability to die here...and during this time, beyond the wall of horrors, the world's going to follow his little daily programm.Shane said:
Thank you for this vision, Shane!
It was quite powerful in my opinion. The contrasting was extraordinarily moving. We need more videos of the suffering people in Palestine and Iraq. Still photos are not as compelling as the living images.Shane said:
Hope you don't mind if we put it up on SOTT.

Wow. I like the both sides when we are going on normal day-to-day lives while ignoring the facts that the people are suffering in great deal as results of war, etc...the work of psychopaths.Shane said:
We would need many ways of bring this awareness to the people. I'll post that on myspace bulletin. Thanks Shane!
Thanks Laura, I think that would be great.Laura said:
And thanks for everyone's feedback.
That scene was from "Occupation 101," a documentry on the Palestinian suffering - a great movie if you can watch it. I'm not sure, but it may be on google video.stardust said:

Here is another take on the same subject. Not as classy as stardust' s but I hope still educational or at least interest provoking. It's a more of a burlesque which was inspired one sunny day few months ago by english version of the song from the Emir Kusturica's gipsy extravaganza Black Cat White Tom Cat which someohow happened to be on my Ipod.

i would like to talk a little bit about my opinion on this presentation.
I see a big problem on how this book (and the topic of pathology) is presented in it.
It's kind of fear mongering don't you think so ?
I've send it to people who were interested to know what could be going on in positions of power.
I did it because I think it is a very importand book (topic) for people to know !
it is more like, those people who are really intersted in searching the "truth" are deterred from this kind of presentation !
normaly when I see such a videos I would think that this is another disinformation video, because of the way the music/writing and pictures are presented !
try to imagine you are not familiar with the book and the topic. what would be your reaction to this presentation ? more attractive or off putting ?
Isn't it that we here would be deterred about this video (book,topic) if someone would post it here for example ? (assumed we would not know the topic)
sorry but I think the way this book is presented is not very good.

Do you watch it because you want to listen to music and watch pictures or do you watch it to get some information? What does it tells about that kind of people that base their judgments on the above mentioned?

I have to agree with Pashalis. The sudden and abrupt cacophony at the very start is rather disruptive to someone who is trying to follow the text and such (remember, the video and sound is part of the presentation as well, and should interfere with the message as little as possible). There are some parts where the white text is difficult to read and such as well, but that's really nit-picking. :)
It should be said that it was much more harmonious and full-of-impact toward the crescendo, almost giving me goosebumps. :)
