The culture and politics

The culture and politics

In the Eurovision song contest is mentioned, that politics doesn't belong to that kind of happenings, and maybe the person who said that was right.  But we must realize, that famous culture happening is a really nice place to talk politics, because many people are watching this thing. And the thing is that many people, who have political emotions are willing to get people to know about their opinions about some things.

The difference between culture and politics is very thin, and the reason, why people are talking about politics in that kind of places, is that they are willing to get a big audience and also big influence about the things, what they think to be right. Politics is a very hard thing to talk, and everybody, who knows about this kind of things must realize that there is a line where is suitable to tell things what might cause reactions in the audience.

When we are thinking about politics like Apartheid and separation between people, we are so sensitive about the things, what we are seeing on the television. But have you ever thought one thing, and that is that in Israel is many people, who want that the world looks to another side, when the violence continues. If we would look at another side, we are acting like people, who are responsible for violence want.

When shield turns to the sword

And the thing is that everything began in the operation, what name was "Peace for Galilee" in 1982 when Israel attacked Lebanon. The good success of Israeli military in the 1967 Six days War and 1973 Yom Kippur war was cheering the military commanders of Israel strike against Lebanon and PLO by using massive firepower. And during this operation, PLO lost almost all its heavy weapons.

In 1967 Israel attacked against Arab nations, which were lead by Egypt by using surprise attack, and in 1973 Egypt attacked Israel. Without 1973 Yom Kippur war Israel would be in a very different position in global politics than it is today. In 1967 the tough speeches of Nasser caused that Israel attacked Egypt and all its Arab neighbors, and in 1973 Egypt attacked Israel. This last action might save Israel from the international judgment, and the success in both wars cheers the military commanders attack in Lebanon 1982. This started the politics, what continues today.

That war was a very successful operation, and after that, the military leaders of Israel have believed in the military force, and hardcore military equipment against the Palestinians, who are certainly terrorists. The media in Israel supports the military commanders, and in fact, the worst case, what would happen for those people, is the real peace.

One of the biggest selling articles for Israel is the military equipment. And the entire nation is very connected with the military forces, which makes the situation very complicated. The military commanders would order alarm immediately if they want, and in that country, there is no possibility to criticize the military forces.

There is one thing in the situation of the peace discussions in the area of Israel and Palestine, what makes people think that there are some people, who would not want the peace. When the conferences are going on, there is always somebody, who would shoot rockets to Israel, and that would guarantee, that the tanks are back, and the peace is again far away. The thing what would make the peace very absurd thing is that Israel has military superiority in that area.

And that thing would make military commanders use the force every time when somebody will shoot rockets from Gaza. It doesn't matter where those rockets have flown or were there any casualties. Normally those rockets would not make anything else than some craters on the ground, but that makes the military commanders send the combat helicopters and tanks to Gaza. They are shot against Israel, and that justifies the military actions against Gaza.

The official press supports the military command, and that would cause the situation, that people of Israel believes, that they are on the right side. The Israeli media haven't ever reported, what kind of training methods the Israeli military uses. But there are rumors, that the persons who are saying something negative against IDF (Israeli Defense Force) would get the call to the military refreshing course. And the military forces have a very large role in the society of Israel. In the next period the "official truth" means propaganda.

In Israel, the official truth is that Palestinian is always an evil person. 

Sometimes is told that the Palestinians are not innocent for that situation, and this is an official truth, what is told to the personnel, who are acting in those operations. The only accepted truth in Israel is that Palestinians are terrorists, who are evil people. And the role of IDF is only defending the people of Israel, whose state was established in 1947, for the home of persecuted Jews, who were victims of the Nazis. This official truth continues that IDF is the shield of Israel against new holocaust, which justifies the actions against Palestinians, who are all guilty.

Or by the way, some 11 years old persons are innocent. But the thing is that the leaders and actors of the terrorist organizations would not want peace, because of the actions against Israel guarantees the life with AK-47, and the thing is that many of those persons have made things, what is not acceptable, and there is one thing, what we ever thought. That is that the people, who are leading those terrorists would make everything, that there would not be the peace in that area.

Sexual violence and war.

Sexual violence and war.

Those things are taboo

Rapes and sexual violence in the conflict situations are taboo, what are the war crimes. The problems in that kind of situations are what kind of cases those raping were? Did they really be rapes, and when we are thinking about that kind of violation, we must understand that using of rapes as the interrogation method is really something, what might be called as "interesting".

The problem of raping is actually a very old thing, and at the first, it came to public knowledge during the Vietnam War, when the American troops claimed often visit in the bordellos, where working girls, who were claimed to forced to work in those places. The persons who forced them to that work worked for the South Vietnamese or US military forces.

Forcing to prostitution is a very common thing in the conflict

Also, Viet Cong used prostitutes to get information from the US military men, and some of them got children with those Americans. There were claims that some persons of US military gave those Vietnamese girls E-pills before the act, and sometimes those persons were forced to go in the bordellos because other soldiers would be claimed that they were homosexuals.

But during the Second World War German military forces had bordellos for their men, and also in the Concentration camps female prisoners forced to work in bordellos, what were reserved for SS-personnel. Also raping was common stuff in the Bosnian war, where all parts of conflicts are made those crimes. And then the Canadian UN-personnel cough from the raping and sexual harassment, what were targeted to the nursery staff. After that, the UN personnel have been at least suspected the raping in many operations.

When people are talking about rapes in places like Auschwitz, we might think that the persons, who made those things might be "little bit different" than normal people, because having sexual contact with the person, who would be killed after a couple of minutes needs the nature, what is similar with Ted Bundy and the rapist murderers. Normal people cannot do those things in that situation.

Only sick persons can do some things. 

The problem in this kind of cases is that there are many people, who would use the gun as an authority. And then the war zone would make them believe that everything is justified. That kind of people are very small minorities in the world, but of course, there could be a couple of sexual killers in every military force.

But then we must ask again the things, that is it possible that somebody tells the lies in some cases. Could it possible that if the military forces are in the same area, they have visited in the rooms of prostitutes. And if that kind of girl comes as pregnant, that person might tell the reason for that the rape. And prostitution is some kind of rape if the girl is forced to do that job. So those girls might be forced to offer the "sexual services" for the foreign soldiers.

The thing in that kind of situation is that those women must have right to get the abort, but that kind of right would cause the problem, that the people, who would want to hide the sexual violence would force those girls to make abortion or take the E-pills before the act.  So the thing is that there are always people, who are making sexual violence to women, and those persons might force those girls to take abortion for hiding their crimes. But in this case, those women must have the right to take that abortion if they want.
