 Today, we watched a long documentary called "Palestine is still the isssue" created by an Australian journalist named John Pilger. The documentary contained films which showed the Palestine Government Office being attacked terribly by the Israels. Other showed Israel soldiers capturing Palestinians and breaking their bones everywhere including the leg,arms and the head. Story of a woman's new born baby dying due to the Israels blocking their way to the hospital, ambulance carer becoming a suicide bomber being the trigger to kill people whose life could have been saved, and the reality of the checkpoint, where the Israels have the authority to decide when to open the gate, who could pass through the gate and to kill the people who attempts to climb over the huge wall equiped with electric wires and surveillance tower everywhere. Everyone who was watching this documentary thought that this was nonsence. 

 The footage was far beyond my expectations and, the more I looked, the more stun and suprised I became. I felt that this situation cannot be expressed with words such as "discrimination "or"prejudice". Moreover, I couldn't believe myself not being able to realize that these serious matters were occuring when I was spending an ordinary dairly life. In order for many people to realize this situation, I shared this documentary to my family members. They empathized to my thought that this issue must come to a solution in the near future and so that peace and harmony would come for the Palestinian citizens.
