BOYCOTT ISRAELI PRODUCTS

The Israeli war on Gaza and the massacre of innocent Palestinian women and children is a crime against humanity and all of that we can do is boycott their products.

Boycott is one of powerful weapon that is if utilized collectively can accomplish far greater positive change than marches, protests and demonstrations. The weapon is the boycott of well targeted products such as Coca-cola,Intel,Disney,Nestle,Nokia,
Mcdonald,Starbucks and many more. This is one of our effort for helping people at Gaza besides the donation for them we were given. Let us make a move now to extend our support to all of our brothers & sisters including children who died in Gaza and save our Muslim people before its too late.

Why do some mothers abandon their children?

Today, I want to share about the abandon children. From the articles I read before, it seems that so many children was abandon by his mother. The story made me felt upset to those people who not have any feeling when abandon their children.

The problem of abandoned children is not new. In the modern world, more than 60 million children and infants have been abandoned by their families and live on their own or in orphanages. This situation make those children have lack of loving, caring, happiness and others in their life. There are some reason that caused the abandon children which are include the family breakdown, irresponsible fatherhood, premature motherhood, illegitimate birth, or the death of both parents.

So, we must appreciated what we have in life and try not to hurt the feelings and broke the trustworthy of our family, friends, and to those whom we related with.
