Children that learn from others are unexpecting others

Humans don’t know how to hate one another until they are taught to.

Whether from parents, teachers or the worst offender: The government.

We are innondated by messages of who to like and who to hate from the time we are able to think.

 

I just watched a movie called “The Teacher” by Farah Nabulsi. She’s an award-winning Palestinian / British director. She also wrote and produced the film. It moved me greatly!

 

The reason I’m recording this podcast is that it is important to try to open people’s eyes.

 

When I was a kid, my father filled my head with HIS feelings about this or that neighbor and all the things wrong with them. It wasn’t until I spoke with them myself, did I realize that my own father’s thinking had been poisoned. The supposed bad neighbors were actually nice people.

 

I only told you that bit of my childhood to make a point. The point is: don’t let others effect how you feel about others.

 

As a child, I was convinced that Israels are good, and that Palestinians are terrorists.

 

Through my own research and experience, I know it’s not the Palestinians that are terrorists. I’ll let you guess who the real ones are.

Even the Israelis are taught, from a young age, that the Palestinians are the bad people and vice versa. The Palestinians are taught that the Israels are the bad ones.

 

I know one thing for sure. The US government is in bed with the Israeli Government. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve met many wonderful Israelis and Palestinians in my life.

 

There are people that can rise above what they are taught, and can open their eyes to the truth about individuals, not listening to what they’ve heard from others.

The other side of the story are the people that eat the stories they hear for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
