Show Me Wedding Cards Verses

a borrower BETWEEN MOON AND STARS

the welfare of a state is only visible in the mirror that reflects our freedom and that of neighboring peoples.

Massimiliano Fanni Canelles

"They between them and us, between us," this was the election slogan of Ehud Barak, Israeli Minister, who had centered his campaign around the idea of \u200b\u200bseparation between the Palestinian and Israeli . Today, a 9-meter-high wall separating the Palestinian Territories (West Bank and Gaza Strip) from Israel, but the escalation of violence and death on one side of the wall and the other puts the whole world on alert today. Decades of Israeli military occupation in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip and rocket attacks and Palestinians in Israel is the object of the extremists on both sides to destroy each other.
The Palestinians want to get rid of the occupier and his constant physical and psychological violence, the Israelis, in turn, want to get rid of the Palestinians they see as an impediment to the realization of a state coveted for millennia and can boast of being the only democracy in the Middle East nell'aera. Men, women and children sacrificed to an insane and inhuman logic, hatred, resentment and violence that plague today's increasingly moderate population only resource to the realization of peace in the land santa delle tre grandi religione monoteiste. Ma questo sistema, esasperando entrambe le popolazioni innalza ai vertici dei Governi i falchi utili alla strumentalizzazione del conflitto da parte dei fondamentalisti religiosi e politici.
Daniel Goldhagen, storico di fama mondiale afferma come l’islam politico guidato da Hamas stia mutando in nazismo il suo antisemitismo. “Le novemila parole della Carta di Hamas dipingono ebrei, israeliani e sionisti in modo manicheo, in conflitto non soltanto con i palestinesi, ma con l’islam. Le loro allucinazioni antisemite ricordano gli ideologi nazisti più estremi”. D’altro canto Jenny Tonge, appartenente British Liberal Democrat party, emphasizes the guilt of Israel have brought the Palestinians to the levels of third world by blocking supplies of raw materials and therefore the economy. Tonge accused the Israeli army had dropped out of school exams in Nablus, with the result of a generation of illiterate and unskilled Palestinians. Not only that, the great Israeli writer Grossman is expressed by criticizing the harsh tones 'and Israel racist attitude towards the Arab minority and accuses his government : "Extremist forces threaten the peace in the' whole region and perhaps in the world, but the primary responsibility for this is the most powerful and aggressive, namely Israel and its rulers. "
Just to give strength to the fringes moderate at this time the Egyptian government is launching a series of interviews with the two Palestinian factions (the extremists of Hamas and the moderate Fatah in order to resolve the crisis . Fatah - has reaffirmed the Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas - "will not accept any new agreements and refuse dialogue with rivals until they do not" put an end to the coup, will be set to accept all international obligations and to hold elections assets ". The proposal that Abbas has the full backing of Washington and Brussels is to take control of the border crossing with Egypt, where it seems to enter the military supplies that arm the hand of Hamas. A proposal immediately rejected by Hamas, which by mid-June has control over the Strip and claim his share of authority on the crossing of Rafah.
The seriousness of the situation becomes abundantly clear when they are constantly being deleted and hidden bi-national and multi-cultural alternatives. a drama in which it becomes increasingly difficult to take the necessary steps to maintain the dignity of all people, ensuring autonomy, authority and prosperity. A key area for the major monotheistic religions, but also for stability in world politics in which only a bi-national state, could in future be a peaceful solution. Two people and a group of people that you could propose a mandatory period of custody in which Palestinian children would be parents to live with Israelis and Israeli children by Palestinian parents.
A provocation? Utopia? Perhaps if we believed in the Holy Land all things be done differently ....

Since the Universal Declaration of Human Rights Millennium Development Goals

Representatives of 51 countries belonging to the United Nations since 10 December 1948 in Paris, following the tragedy of World War II approved the text of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights which established, in 30 articles, the basic principles human dignity. For the first time were clarified the rights of every human being should be able to enjoy for the sole reason for being in the world, without discrimination of race, gender, culture, language and religion. Today, more and Dec. 10, but 60 years later we celebrate the anniversary of this important signature in an international context substantially different in some respects but still dramatic.
The latest report from the World Health Organization identifies poverty as a factor conditioning the social values \u200b\u200band how these affect the health and future of people. Not have adequate financial means to be more susceptible to disease, trafficking, slavery, to qulche become a victim in a period of his life. There are currently 1.2 billion people living on less than a dollar a day, while about half of the population survives on less than two dollars a day. According to data recently published by FAO, the UN agency for food in 2008 at the multitude of poor people have added another 40 million people who suffer from hunger, rising food prices, raising the overall balance of undernourished people worldwide to 963 million. Of these 907 million people live in developing countries, and 65% of them live in just seven countries: India, China, Democratic Republic of Congo, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Pakistan and Ethiopia. In sub-Saharan Africa one in three is chronically hungry even here progress has been made: the percentage of undernourished people has increased from 34 percent in the period 1995-97 to 30 in the period 2003-2005.

But poverty can not be quantified by the simple measure of income per capita gross domestic product and debt of the country, among other in the West do not take into account the 'black' economy and the third sector. Poverty is mainly evaluated by analyzing elements of "quality", as life expectancy, infant mortality and literacy rates. E 'therefore necessary that the 60th anniversary della Dichiarazione Universale dei diritti umani spinga a mantenere gli Obiettivi di Sviluppo del Millennio (Millennium Development Goals) delle Nazioni Unite , otto obiettivi che tutti i 191 stati membri dell'ONU si sono impegnati a raggiungere per l'anno 2015.
o 1.1 1. Sradicare la povertà estrema e la fame o 1.2 2. Garantire l'educazione primaria universale o 1.3 3. Promuovere la parità dei sessi e l'autonomia delle donne o 1.4 4. Ridurre la mortalità infantile o 1.5 5. Migliorare la salute materna o 1.6 6. Combattere l'HIV/AIDS, malaria and other diseases or 1.7 7. Ensure environmental sustainability or 1.8 8. Develop a global partnership for development, but to do this is to redefine the assistance measures and the need to rethink the overall development of our western world, who now lives on the shoulders of the third. We need to rethink a new relationship between capitalism and the poor world, and this involves first the identification of forms of co-cooperation programs. We must abandon the idea of \u200b\u200baid for its own sake, but you need to develop plans that will enable these cultures to evolve and break free, allowing alla popolazione di sostenersi autonomamente con progetti di microcredito e microimprenditorialità. Un popolo è infatti recettivo allo stimolo imprenditoriale solo se sono sviluppati i piani internazionali sul diritto all’istruzione e alla formazione professionale, che costituiscono per tutti gli esperti di scienze umane il grimaldello capace di interrompere il circolo vizioso della povertà.
