Schindler's List


Schindler's list is a movie that won seven Oscar Awards and was released in 1993, is about Oscar Schindler who owns an ammunition's factory but struggles to find workers so he goes off and buys Jews. This was in the World War II era and the Holocaust when Hitler was in high power. Schindler is apart of the nazi party and plans to runs his business surely on Jews. Schindler as greedy and wealth as he was back then just focused on going forward and cared nothing for the Jews. He cared less that he was saving the Jews from the Ghettos and from the concentration camps. He has struggles in keeping the Jews in his factory due to nazi leaders taking them to concentration camps and to different directions causing Schindler to spend more money trying to keep up his factory. He ends up doing this two-three times. In the end Schindler started to realize what he was doing right when the war ended and what he said "You the hunted become the free and me the free become the hunted." He ends up saving about 7,000 Jews from the torturous things that others had to endure.

Power to me means to help others and do everything to do to make others help out as well. As for Oscar Schindler he doesn't really understands power and just has people working for him. Towards the end of the movie you can see Schindler striving to help out the Jews who where in danger and I would say that he understood the meaning of Power at the end of the movie.

Schindler transformed from being an anti-hero to a hero in a drastic way. In the beginning he just wanted people to work but with no sympathy. He cared about nothing that the Jews thought or said and was quiet scared. But he ends up being a hero by saving and chasing after his workers and saving them from harm. He ends up spend millions of dollars just to buy each worker back and saving them from the Holocaust.

This film could have had a great affect if in the beginning where a bit more clear because it starts off really confusing and leads you thinking and leads you to get lost during the movie. If the film sort of explained it more clearly what was happening during the beginning it would had a greater affect on people today

Is it America?

Dissident Voice

The total of deaths recorded as an estimate is 650,000. Where an estimated 100,000 deaths were accounted when the US-UK attacked Iraq. And that all the origins from those killings come from the US-UK government. But was it really an invasion to get ride of the weapons of mass destruction? Some say that's a total fluke. I mean does 600,000 people dead sound like what we need to do to get those weapons of mass destruction? NO! Not at all we don't have to be killing left to right just to get the edgily weapons of mass destruction. George W. Bush labeled Sudan under genocide a year ago. But, in totality and proportionally, the number of deaths in Sudan pale in comparison to the number of deaths in Iraq. Sudan having a population of 41,236,378 to a July 2006, CIA Factbook estimate. is purported by some sources to have incurred 200,000 deaths from fighting, famine and disease. Using the figure cited in the latest Lancet to-be-published study, Iraq with a population of 26,783,383, has a far greater extraordinary fatality rate covering approximately the same period of time. So I know believe that US is committing genocide against Iraq.

1. Who denies my facts?
2. What do other people think?
3. What are facts proving that the Sunni and Shi'ite are committing genocide
Counter Punch

So in this article it specifically says that it is the U.S. that is committing genocide in Iraq to
continue historical patterns. Example: President Bush and all the rest of the presidents since World War II have engaged apalling felones against humanity to matain, protect and advance Americas interest to air people out of cruel dictatorship. Below is the UN Convention policies on what there has to be for it can be called a genocide.

According to the Convention:

Genocide means any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, such as:

a) Killing members of the group;
b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm;
c) Deliberately inflicting conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or part;
d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;
e) Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.


Well what does this have to say about America has America turned into a mini Adolf Hitler?
This leaves me off thinking the same Questions as before only because the fact that every site i tend to visit goes back and forth between sunni shi'ite are committing genocide and then there is America is supposedly committing genocide?

Genocide Emergency?

Time


So the brink of Genocide is not from the U.S. killing the random civilians of Iraq but controversies of two religions. The Sunni and the Shi'ite. These two religions have been in contradiction since the past decade. The reason is simple.
Sunni is an Islamic who follow sunnah or real Islam that brought by Muhammad. While shiite is an Islamic who have a strong believe in Saidina Ali which is one of the kalifah. They have different religions sect like protesteron Christ and roman catholic. Since the past decade it has been an uproar. its about money its about power..and its about america and isreal getting involved.


1. Why go as far as killing?
2. Is the religion funded by any Iraqi government?
3. ?

Iraq between Genocide and coincidences!

Global Research

Funny how Iraqi citizens die from Random "military clashes"
.
At Global Research Statistics found that out of 75% of deaths 25% were classified as military clashes. Hmmmm that's very Weird. That 75% of deaths came from "terrorist attacks" or typical bombings. Ok what has to be the secret. Why are so many Iraqi citizens dieing from supposibly military clashes? Ok below will be statistics of Iraqi Deaths

1. 3,274 people in Iraq were killed and 12, 657 injured in conflict-related violence
2. 2,041 of these deaths were the result of military action, in which 8,542 people were injured
3. 1,233 deaths were the result of "terrorist" incidents

1. what makes these conflicts?
2. Who really starts the conflicts?
3. What does that conflict consist of?
