stanley8m: Reply to above posts.

My post refers to the media blitz today on radio, tv and social media regarding the death of Robin Williams, and how this recognition and sympathy for a wealthy actor, contrasts the gradual casual acceptance developing, for the murdered victims of Zionist aggression in Gaza.

If every Palestinian murdered received a fraction of the publicity afforded to Mr Williams, perhaps Israel would be forced to desist from their military campaign against a civilian population.

In the name of humanity, we are bound by all that being human stands for, to constantly remind the Israeli authorities, that we will not allow this genocidal slaughter of innocents to continue.

While I accept the death of Robin Williams as a tragic occurrence, I will argue that his death pales in comparison to the wanton
slaughter of men, women and children in Gaza.


A noble stance to take; whilst there is nothing much you can do to prevent what's happening there - you could help with the starving millions in other countries around the world.

Do you?

PS, in regards to what I can do to prevent the Zionist slaughter of innocents in Gaza. I agree that I lack the military might to protect the Palestinians, however, through boycotting Israeli products I am making a personal contribution, which if taken on board by enough people, could possibly persuade Israel to cease their current policies. thumbs up

I don't know who said you were immune to it Peach, what I stated was we should not allow ourselves to become immune to Gaza, and might I add worldwide injustice and suffering, including examples from closer to home.

As for making a difference to Israeli aggression against Gaza, I would suggest you support protests, publicise your abhorrence for Israeli murder of innocents, try to educate and get more people involved in the campaign, and boycott Israeli produce. thumbs up

Great comedian and so much more. Makes one wonder how bad he was feeling if the better option was suicide. His death has captured the world in the same way as princess diana's, same shock.

Robin Williams simply had enough of his suffering and ended it,..the great painter Van Gogh suffered mental illness at stages in his life and simply had enough of trying to cope with the suffering he endured ,,robin Williams sad as it is we must remember the good times about him I'm sure there were many too,we can't get into his mind of what was going on in his mind he simply wanted to end his pain...think he would like us to be sad he gone but think of the laughter he gave us,,he was a person with a life I'm sure he had happy times too lets not think of him as the man that just took his own life he was more than that and accomplished much in his life and had happy times,friends,too.wine .teddybear
