winstonwolfe: stolencamera: Gestures speak louder than words. Also, would make a nice Nike ad. A Palestinian protestor gestures towards Israeli riot police during a demonstration against the Israeli attacks on Gaza in the Shuafat Refugee Camp, north of Jerusalem, on 29 December 2008. EPA/YOSSI ZAMIR Palestinian protestors display their rage at the Israeli govt. for denying them their basic rights of food, water, & the ability to purchase adidas products. I know that this isn’t at all fair, but I always find it amazing when people who are blockaded and claim starvation walk around in Nike hats and Adidas track suits.  And before you criticize me for saying this: I know that it’s terribly unfair and that one has very little, if anything, to do with the other.
