Palestine: People are dying by the thousands, but in UK and in other places it is as if nothing is happening.

I witness events in disbelief. It is not the first time something similar happens. We have just become desensitized. We see it as natural. Like Stalin said: one death is a tragedy, a million death is a statistic.

Most of us are sitting comfortably. Most of us are not even thinking about it. Some will be using what is happening in Palestine to promote their own agendas that have nothing to do with what is happening in Palestine. The method is well known and it is all 'Generalization'. In Europe, anti-Muslim agendas and anti-Jewish agendas are not new and the causes vary, but the real issues are vastly different from what is happening in Palestine. The realities are completely different, but most ignore the differences and create what I call anti-Muslim packages and anti-Jewish packages as justification to promote their own agendas. This is lamentable, but it is part of the political mix.

Somebody is blue and is a killer. I happen to be blue and therefore people will assume - for the benefit of their own agendas - that because I am blue I am also a killer. This is what I refer to as 'Generalization'. Politicians use Generalization. Mass Media use Generalization. It is the kind of over simplification that leads to violence. It is irrational, but it premeditated.
