a new year

i returned home the latest i had been all year.. but only fitting to be on the new year

i started thinking about what i had heard earlier on the radio.. then also earlier today from my manager at work... about the palestinian israeli conflict over gaza... there are a few things that people said that i found interesting

1. the cbc is biased against israel

2. both palestinians and israelites come from the same father

i'm not trying to say i think either of these statements are factual because i have no evidence to back them up (and am too lazy to look them up on wikipedia)

i will say that i find them interesting because i believe there is a deeper truth in each statement

1. all newspapers are biased in a political nature... because they are written by people and it is impossible for people to achieve true objectivism.. i might go on to say that cbc is generally a left wing paper but that would require evidence to back it up and i'm way too lazy to do that.. plus it would steal the thunder away from my main relativistic argument

2. ultimately we all come from the same father.. in the bible and in evolution.. so i don't see what that whole thing is about
