A&T, sorry about my lil bit abrupt insert, and thanks for the welcoming. I've just heard to many complaints from my somali brothers that arabs are no good, hamas is to blame for the whole situation, and if they do feel sorry for the Gaza citizens their apology for not doing anything has been that westerners has been and will always support Israel so there's no point to appeal to the leaders of our western countries, nor to the media. And then we have those who say demonstrations are haram, we should turn to Allah and make dua, as if our supplication alone is enough.
For those who blame the palestinians I have no words but resentment. It's good what you're doing, if there will ever be any major change for the muslim situation in the world it has to start from within the muslim countries. But nevertheless my brother, there are many roads to Rome. I live here, and I haven't yet given up the hope that we can influence the western order.
A demonstration has more than one purpose: make an opinion, unite and give us who work towards something a bit of a boost to continue our work and tell the rest of the population that we are many. If we don't see any change tomorrow, it doesn't mean we wont see the effect in next generation... sabr my friend.
