VIVA LA LUCHA DEL PUEBLO PALESTINO



huge, and growing pro Palestine rally in SOL, a vibrant area of Madrid
several hundred people, chants in Spanish and Palestinian Arabic...

alot of anti-Israel
and "Bush Obama basura Americana"....
and US and Israel together
(which, can be seen as truth)

i remembered the anti US occupation of IRAQ march and protest i went to a year and half ago--
and remembered, the violence in the shouts, posters and purposes of folks around
and remembered the idea (quotes): if you want peace, work for justice and there is no way to peace, peace is the way

now, how many countless conversations have talked about the human nature: violent/non-violent war/peace
(- but even in the absence of war there is a chance there is not peace)
and there are even peace activists who believe that some force must be asserted in order to attain justice, peace

  1. Maybe interview 20 random Madridians and ask them what they think about Gaza. Liek Waldman, do an investigation, cultivate curiosity.
