I want to speak as a young person in the name of my generation because I am sure that my generation agrees with me on this: war is not the solution to any conflict.
Not today, not in this century. Its urgent that there is an international diplomatic intervention and an immediate cease of fire. I am sad, I guess like the rest of the world is, to know that because of this conflict so many innocent mothers and children are dying.
I just want a call from my generation to the US leaders and the super power countries' leaders to stop this war because we all know they can stop it. I just hope that there is an international diplomatic intervention right away.
We want something better for our kids; the kids in Colombia, the kids in Israel, the kids of Palestine, the kids of the world, because I believe in only one human race. ..We don't need leaders that create more divisions and resentment and more hatred.
We need leaders that care about the people and about the social needs of a nation, not leaders that only invest on weapons and space missions.
I think we need to start worrying about what we have here on this planet, which is really tough, it is tough to survive in the world we are in, with so many natural catastrophe's like the tsunami that just happened in Asia and on top of that, we are killing each other. This is something I don't understand.
There is a lot that we need to start doing in order to survive as a community and as one human race.
Maybe it's just me, but I don't think anyone pays attention to her singing either.
Oh wow, another liberal singer. Who would have thought?
(/sarcasm)
What made me amused was her contention that she was an artist and not an entertainer.
I'd post a pic but her booty will jam up FR's servers.
Shakira sings?
She apparently hasn't heard that it takes both sides to make peace. If the terrorists don't want to make peace, there will be no peace.
just post the best one.
Who?
Maybe she should go over to Beirut and preach this sermon to Nasrallah? After all, even if they cut off her head she wouldn't be any dumber!
So what she is saying is that the current generation would be in favor of Hitler still being in power? Of course by now he would have finished off the last of the Jews, Christians, Catholics and Gypsies. I suspect that in addition to her understanding of war she also misjudges her generation...they're not all as stupid as she is.
Paging Laura Ingraham, Paging Laura Ingraham. Another stupid singer needs a copy of your book
Not that I agree with her position.
The real world is not a Pepsi ad.
She is of Lebanese decent and a UN celebrity peacenik so whats to be expected, she should just shut up and sing and keep moving that fine body of hers.
So's my wife, that doesn't automatically make one a antiwar, liberal wacko. Or pro-Palestinian for that matter.
