Heart songs

Posted on October 23, 2013 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

Each one of us is born

With heart songs inside

When the ride gets rough,

People become tough

Life rages with noise

Our heart songs faint

To the background

But each one of us is born

With many heart songs inside

A kind word, or a poem,

Caress of a tender hand,

Attentive ear,

A meal made with love,

Or a prayer said in silence

A gaze pure and gentle,

Heartwarming embrace,

A small act of forgiveness,

A glorious twinkle in the eye,

Or a radiant smile

When autumn falls

Don’t hibernate

Get out and about

Plough the meadows of your soul

Seeds of good deeds

Plant all around

Let love bloom

Let hope thrive

Open your heart

Dance to its singing

Paint the corners of your soul

Pink and lilac, blue and green

Then sway and shine

Sprinkle your joy

Extend your hands

Embrace the world

Is it me standing on my head, or is the world upside-down?

Posted on October 17, 2013 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

Silent cries of babies dying pierce my ears

Deformed infants born, a nightmare called “life”

Corpses of bleeding whales paint the ocean pink

Lifeless grey trees, trunks chopped and dry

Bees falling dead “we don’t know why”!

Breathless sweet dolphins scattered by the seashore

Heavy nights descend like bricks

Hidden hands tighten around my neck

I’m breathing mud, I’m breathing sand

Is it just me standing on my head?

Or is everything around me, upside-down?

Destruction… “conquest” of nature

Radioactive waste… praised as accomplishment

Robbery in broad day light… a “Historic Achievement”

Progress… a family is no longer mum and dad

Liberty… measured in nudity per cm², put on display

Civilisation… how many weapons a nation could amass

Science… a tool of annihilation and a mushroom cloud

Charity… bailout of bankers adding to the trillions in their “empty” coffers

If we don’t give them that, our world would collapse… yes, collapse!

Economy… snatching the last piece of bread from a hungry destitute

Financial growth… interest goes up and up, while life goes down

Security… watching every move, recording every word, just to keep us “safe”

Technology… counting every breath, monitoring every dream only just in case

Defence… watch out, every blink of an eye might be a “secret code”,

Every social gathering could be a “sleeping cell”, call 999 only just in case

O dear Beloved God

How could such a small heart

Take all this pain

I don’t want to be here

I don’t want to take part

In this evil madness

All I want to be

Is a leaf on a tree

or a wild flower by the road side

Hide forever

Where no one could see

Look up into Heaven

Smile at angels as they pass by

No alternative to FULL LIBERATION

Posted on October 17, 2013 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

Promoting “one state” after the failure of the “two states” means in plain language:

1) Legitimizing the usurping entity of “israel”, worse, it is a call for promoting the enlargement of its boundaries, to encompass the ENTIRE land of Palestine, by annexing what remains of Palestine.

2) Wiping out the Palestinian Identity by giving Palestinians “israeli” citizenship, thus covertly calling for the “israelization” of what remains of Palestinians.

3) Inviting the Zionist entity to ANNEX and OCCUPY what is left of Palestine.

4) Blessing the invaders with the “right” to keep the LOOT of whatever they have captured through wars of conquest and aggression.

5) Enabling the invaders to ENLARGE and EXPAND their entity, a small step towards a “greater israel”.

6) Embracing the finalization of the Zionist project.

7) Campaigning to upgrade the Palestinians’ status from “occupied Palestinian” to “slave israelis”, living under the boot of Jewish supremacists who see Palestinians and other goyim as animals created only to serve Jews.

Are we so naive to engage promoting such insanity?

No alternative to the Algerian model of FULL LIBERATION

Let us Learn Compassion

Posted on October 16, 2013 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

Let us learn, brothers and sisters in humanity

Let us learn

Let us learn that JUSTICE is the backbone of all DIVINE Laws

Let us learn that COMPASSION and MERCY are the gift-wrap

Which makes our justice so sublimely beautiful

Just a thought

Posted on October 16, 2013 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

Our quest for JUSTICE through our pursuit of TRUTH is what should keep our intentions pure and our actions noble.

Our passion for humanity, beauty, harmony and equality is what allows love to grow in our hearts unhindered.

Like the Holy Land that is Palestine, it shines with goodness through the pursuit of its people for spiritual truth and by existing in harmony with nature and the pace of nature.

What makes it Holy and so breathtakingly beautiful is its embrace of that which is organic, pure and natural.

Thus, when we align ourselves in full harmony with the epitome of Nature’s Divine Laws, i.e Balance outlined with Beauty, translated in human terms as Justice embraced with Compassion, we become one with all there is.

If we slip, however, into following the deceptive and oppressive methods of those whom we oppose, we lose the battle and it would be our defeat.

Light upon Light

Posted on October 14, 2013 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

There is a flower in my heart

Nay, a wild garden

Blissful meadows

As far as the eye can see

There is a child in my heart

Nay, manifold of children

Whole of Mankind

As far as the eye can see

There is a sun in my heart

Nay, millions of stars

Universes . . . galaxies

As far as the eye can see

There is a candle in my heart

Nay, bright dazzling Light

Light upon Light

As far as the eye can see

“Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth.

The metaphor of His Light

is that of a niche

in which there is a lamp,

the lamp inside a glass,

the glass like a brilliant star,

lit from a blessed tree, an olive,

neither of the east nor of the west,

its oil all but giving off light

even if no fire touches it

Light upon Light

Allah guides to His Light whoever he wills

and Allah makes metaphors for mankind

and Allah has knowledge of all things”

(Qur’an 24:35)

اللَّهُ نُورُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ مَثَلُ نُورِهِ كَمِشْكَاةٍ فِيهَا مِصْبَاحٌ الْمِصْبَاحُ فِي زُجَاجَةٍ الزُّجَاجَةُ كَأَنَّهَا كَوْكَبٌ دُرِّيٌّ يُوقَدُ مِن شَجَرَةٍ مُّبَارَكَةٍ زَيْتُونِةٍ لَّا شَرْقِيَّةٍ وَلَا غَرْبِيَّةٍ يَكَادُ زَيْتُهَا يُضِيءُ

وَلَوْ لَمْ تَمْسَسْهُ نَارٌ نُّورٌ عَلَى نُورٍ يَهْدِي اللَّهُ لِنُورِهِ مَن يَشَاءُ وَيَضْرِبُ اللَّهُ الْأَمْثَالَ لِلنَّاسِ وَاللَّهُ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عَلِيمٌ

Love is a Wonder

Posted on October 11, 2013 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

Love is a wonder

A peek into Heaven

Barren hearts

Lush and bloom

Love is a wonder

Spontaneous gush

Pure and tender

When a heart is touched

By kindness of soul

Of the beloved

Once upon a dream

Posted on October 9, 2013 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

Whenever I finish writing an article or a poem, I think to myself, that’s it now, I have said all what I needed to say, I have poked into wasps nests, divulged forbidden topics and delved into taboos, few are willing to touch. I have also expressed the very innermost deepest sentiments and thoughts of my being, I am done now. I am ready to depart. Nothing left to say or to write about.

Lo and behold,

Before I know it

I fall upon a crime

An image of life pulverised

A frozen tear of a beloved child

Stabs my heart

Coils my guts in crazy knots

Rips my soul

Like a dagger piercing into my existence

Like a volcano erupting in my conscience

Like a burning bullet whizzing through my mind

My limbs tremble in agony

My hearts pounds like thunder

I weep of pain

I scream of rage and anger

A poem is born

Other times,

Wondering in my world

I fall upon a dream

A vision tickles my heart

Melt it away, like butter on a hot tray

Like a baby’s hand

Wrapped around my finger

Like a blanket of stars

Embracing my estrangement

Caressing my wounds

Swaying my soul in an ocean of love

Whispering a lullaby of heaven in my ear

I twirl in dazzlement

Wallow in delight

My heart pounds like thunder

My eyes moisten of joy

My limbs tremble in ecstasy and bewilderment

A poem is born

“The world is antisemitic”, Oh… Really !

Posted on October 9, 2013 by Nahida Exiled Palestinian

Through my interaction with many people of Jewish background, I began to notice that many amongst them have been conditioned and psychologically indoctrinated to think in terms of “us, and the world“.

The nature of the state of connectedness between them and the world is defined from a very young age in an unhealthy terms, thus as they grow older, the dynamics of this twisted relationship takes a very peculiar slant, an unbalanced bondage between an innocent persecuted perpetually victimised minority and a hostile, ruthless, hateful world collective.

Evidently, such perspective is very different from that of the non-Jewish observer, especially people in the Middle East who are not burdened with the guilt of the holocaust, nor experienced that sort of historical discord amongst its multi-faithed communities, who also have been, for over seventy decades, at the receiving end of the violence and brutality of Jewish-Zionist occupiers.

The manifestation of “us and them” mentality appears in beliefs and thoughts like:

For no particular reason there is global hatred against Jews which is inexplicable and incurable. Hatred which is spread all over the world geographically and historically,

They are an endangered species if they don’t aggressively and exclusively work to preserve their “race”, they will end up extinct,

There is a holocaust around every corner awaiting to exterminate them to the point of total annihilation,

Their “core Jewish values” are supreme set of morals unmatched by others, it contains nothing but good,

They are, for whatever inexplicable reason (genetic/nurtured for the secular and miraculous/ divine, for the religious) “smarter” and more successful than others,

Their “financial success”, their “intelligence” and their “achievements” made them subjects of envy, hatred and jealousy thus persecution throughout history,

Throughout history people rejected them and ghettoised them against their wishes,

This vendetta of the world against them calumniated in the catalytic event of the holocaust, which was the worst crime humanity has ever seen, has pushed them to stick together, choosing “Never again” as their inspirational motto shared by all,

Thus fighting antisemitism and affirming the narrative of their rabbinic establishment about their “history of persecution” is a prime priority surpassed by none, it is the only way to “prevent” the upcoming holocaust,

They have to be permanently on guard, vigilant and alert to pick up the slightest sign of “antisemitism” and to catch it and kill it before it hatches,

They are a tiny minority having to survive in a sea of hatred, wherever they are, thus every member and his/her efforts count,

The global Jewish communities are innocent victims used by imperialism and Zionism and not supporters, enablers and alibis of the “Jewish state” and its crimes,

Having lived almost my entire life in forced exile, psychologically and emotionally strangled by the occupation of my Homeland, observing only an intensification of their crimes, and having being at the receiving end of an artificially-generated, Zionist-fomented Islamophobia, this absurd claim and mantra “the world is antisemitic and hates us with no reason” began to really annoy and enrage me, for it is an incredibly skewed perception reality, of oneself and of the world.

Such perception reeks of anti-human, actually of human-loathing sentiments, for its hidden connotations indirectly accuse humanity of pure evil, irrationality and stupidity combined, consequently makes-believe that they are way better than such “infantile human race”, superior in their morality and intellect, for they don’t stoop to such lows of “irrational hatred”. Thus, by this assumption about the existence of an innate hatred of Jews in the human condition, they set themselves morally apart and above the rest of mankind.

Screen Shot 2016-09-28 at 23.38.48.png

After many years of studying Jewish ideology, I came to believe that such perception of world hatred is nothing but projection. It is in fact a concealment for the inadequate and troubling feelings which may arise when they read the anti-human deluge in many of their sacred books and when they listen to Torah’s Commander-in-Chief teaching them that gentiles only exist to serve Jews.

In order to justify and explain away the supremacist hate-filled books about the “inherent evil” and the “inferiority” of the gentiles, compared to those who are “chosen”, they find solace and easing of conscience by accusing gentiles of irrationality and unfathomable “Jew-hatred”. Consequently -except for the brave few, they NEVER EVER find the courage, modesty or decency to look in the mirror and question the racist and supremacist ideology glaring and screaming at any objective observer. Never having the honesty and sincerity to reevaluate their deeds through which they either actively or passively support a criminal genocidal entity (except for the few, who then get accused of self-hatred, ostracised and persecuted).

Like spoiled little brats, who got used to getting their own little way, to do what they want and bully whomever they want, without ever being held accountable, they shout, scream and throw a tantrum whenever they are told off or confronted with truth.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

Give me a break!!

STOP getting hysterical, shouting antisemitism at every genuine criticism

START looking within, reflecting and thinking

Where is antisemitism when racist supremacists get promoted as heads of Department of Homeland Security?

Where is antisemitism when supremacists get honoured with Distinguished Service Award?

Where is antisemitism when Supremacists continue to profit and thrive from planting fear in others?

Where is antisemitism when the doors of the Pentagon are open to the most racist amongst them?

Where is antisemitism when supremacists like Rebbe Schneerson gets rewarded with the Golden Congressional Medal?

Where is antisemitism when most racist Rabbis have access to the White House whenever they please?

Where is antisemitism when “Israel’s” Temple, Hollywood with all its hypnotising propaganda is under control ?

Where is antisemitism when one Joel Stein could write publicly “I don’t care if Americans think we’re running the news media, Hollywood, Wall Street or the government. I just care that we get to keep running them“?

Where is antisemitism when even in the self-proclaimed as most “neutral” media would only bend backwards to please them?

Where is antisemitism when they claim to be the US army’s “spiritual guidance” and “moral inspirations”?

Where is antisemitism when they brag about their control of the media, and go insane when someone points out that somehow the media might be biased in its reporting towards “Israel”?

Where is antisemitism when one of their Lobbyists finds no problem in publicly calling for False Flag attack in order to facilitate and start a war on Iran, and he gets away with it?

Where is antisemitism when the entire of USA is under occupation according to one of a most repeatable activists who herself is also Jewish?

Where is antisemitism when a “Talmudist Ace” is put in charge of Internet neutrality, thus in charge of control and censorship?

Where is antisemitism when an Orthodox Lew gets appointed as Chief of Staff of Obama?

Where is antisemitism when “Per capita, Jews are a little over 100 times more likely to become billionaires than the rest of the human race”?

Where is antisemitism when one Jewish family alone is believed to “have possessed by far the largest private fortune in the world as well as by far the largest fortune in modern world history“?

Where is antisemitism when some are so desperate to prove their victimhood status, so much so that they even fake antisemitic attacks just to continue playing the game and to earn sympathy, while their brethren continue their seventh decade of slow genocide in Palestine?

Where is antisemitism when they cry “virulent antisemitism” for being “offended” when people criticise the criminality of the Jewish state, while their brethren continue spewing hate as they wish?

Where is antisemitism when they continue to fan the flames of hatred against Islam and Muslims yet manage to get away with it?

Where is antisemitism when the funeral of a racist supremacist Rabbi -who believed that gentiles exist only to serve Jews, was attended by 16% of “Israeli” Jews, 800,000 followers and devotees?

Where is antisemitism when a Supremacist Chabad rabbi opens a USA Congress session with a prayer !

Where is antisemitism when a Supremacist Chabad rabbi Opens USA Senate Session with a prayer !

Tough inner journey has to be undertaken to eventually help those who search for truth and to enable them to see the perceptive of the gentile outsider, mixed with a little bit of empathy and humbleness, i.e putting themselves in the shoes of the “non chosen” for a little while and try to see the world from that perspective:

Those who refuse to look within, reject making this painful journey, clutch to layers of indoctrinations, and ignore serious questions of the self, as to why do they behave in such an irrational, stiff and reactionary manner when Jewish ideology is brought to table, and why do they want to keep such ideology beyond the boundaries of discussion ;

Those who refuse to shake their super-sized ego and look it in the eye, feeling snug and satisfied with their own fixated views and rejecting the idea that there might be different views out there;

Those who continue to chase phantom ghosts outside their own selves, thinking that doing so would ease their fear of the “upcoming holocaust” and would slay the ogres of “antisemitism” infesting the imagination of their indoctrinated childhood;

They are hugely mistaken.

Concealing the monster and covering it with however many layers of distractions, will not make it go away. As long as it is kept hidden and unspoken of, that monster will not die, it will always stay lurking beneath the surface waiting to jump and raise its ugly head any moment. That monster is an ideology of “chosenness”, “exclusivity” and “specialness” and a perceived history of “perpetual exceptional suffering”, both of which have to be brought up for open discussion, challenged and put on trial, before mankind put them, their ideology, their history and their crimes against humanity on trial.

Finally, if their aim is to prevent “antisemitism” and to stop hatred against Jews, our aim is to prevent anti-humanism, genocidal supremacy and to stop many Jewish ideologists from HARMING to DEATH Palestinians and many people around the world.
