G-d Gave Us a Brain and Heart, Don't Mix Them Up!

The heart is for love and the brain is for thought. Please don't mix them up. 

These days I often see that many people are definitely using both organs interchangeably. 

Thanks to technology we now have the ability to watch wars in real time. Prior to the war in Vietnam, we were not privy to see and hear exactly how wars played out. We didn't get to see people shot at close range, hear their cries or watch body parts flying into the air after a bomb exploded. As with all tools, technology can be used for good or bad depending on the people using them. 

It's very easy to edit videos or photoshop photographs nowadays. In the simplest case one only needs to remove parts of a video to destroy any important context and thusly prove a lie. 

We've seen that time and again in Pallywood. That's the Palestinian version of Hollywood whereby they have actors pretending to be injured or dead and blaming the IDF for their fake injuries or deaths. Of course there are always professional photographers at the scene of the crime (how opportune!). They were part of the Pallywood film crew. The PA spends millions of dollars on this. They pay the actors, the film crew, they have expert makeup artists (complete with gallons of fake blood and bandages), etc. They do this because it works.

And why does it work? Because so many of us, are using our hearts to evaluate the facts instead of using our brains. All it takes is a photo of an Arab child lying in a pool of (fake) blood with a (fake) IDF soldier standing over him in full military gear. Of course images like these are designed to pull at our heart strings. Evil people figured this out hundreds of years ago. But now with the advancement of technology and the high speed internet, the Pallywood style news fills the main stream news media faster than a comet. 

Along with this are the PR firms and expert advisors to leaders all over the world. They can take a tired, broken, empty fool and make him out to be a courageous leader. They have been doing this with President Biden for a while now. While many of us haven't been fooled, many are and continue to be. 

PA leaders like the late Arafat (may his name be forgotten) or their current leader Abbas, are made out to be strong, heroic military leaders with limitless courage. After all, they are forced to stand up to the mighty nazi like IDF with tanks while their forces (often young children) are using only rocks to fend off the bad guys. 

Do you remember when the terrorist leader Arafat was invited to speak at the UN? He wore his standard (fake) army uniform complete with a gun holster. I think they made him remove his gun. He accused Israel of harvesting organs from captured arabs and a myriad of other insane lies. He begged the world for money which he mostly pocketed and he pleaded with his Muslim brothers to continue to attack the Jewish state at all costs (even when it meant certain death to young, ignorant, Arab youths). And most of the world applauded him. Again when he finally died, almost every world leader attended his funeral and hailed him as a virtuous leader seeking justice for his people and peace (oy vey!).

Images from many decades prior, of fedayeen (Arab militias) are portrayed as brave soldiers despite them being cowards, shooting innocent Israelis citizens from a distance while the Israelis are working on their fields. 

Here's a shot of Arafat doing what he did best: Spread lies. But he looks so respectable though, right? He can't be a bad man because he's even wearing glasses! And he's even wearing a medal of sorts. 

Here's a shot of Ukraine's President Zelensky essentially doing exactly what Arafat did and what Abbas is doing now:

Oh my, he looks like a real hero doesn't he? Very down to earth. He could leave Ukraine but no, he risks his life every day to help defend his poor country. And all he wears is the same army T-shirt. What a humble and noble guy. 

He and his masters have certainly studied how Pallywood works and he is following exactly in Arafat and Abbas's footsteps. Act and look like a hero. Pretend to care for your people. Beg the world for money.  Make sure to be seen on the MSM whenever and wherever possible. Accuse his enemies of all sorts of lies. Push the world to help him defeat his enemies using guilt. Amass as much wealth as possible and as quickly as he can. Hold his own people hostage to be used as pawns by him and his pals. 

I have warned in the past to not be lured in by the MSM, governments or other nefarious organizations or individuals. Use your brains to do your own fact checking instead of looking at an image and reading a bogus headline. The simple fact is that the Left controls the MSM and most governments. So their messaging cannot and must not be trusted. Whether it's the Left in my country, Canada, the US or in Israel or anywhere for that matter. 

Recall the al-Dura hoax whereby the Arabs in Gaza claimed that the IDF shot and killed an Arab boy seen with his father in the middle of a shoot out between the IDF and Arab terrorists. Here is the photo that's been seen around the world and is even on stamps and reproduced on murals:

This one image propelled the 2nd intifada in Israel which led to many dying and injured on both sides. 

With the proliferation of AI (artificial intelligence), false narratives can be created by keystrokes on a computer. These bogus news stories will and already are, filling the news waves. We must be ever more careful when we read or watch the 'news' as it will become much more difficult to discern fact from fiction. I urge you not to come to quick judgements before assessing all of the facts. 

I've seen this happen time and again. People start to read and think for themselves but then they see an image out of context and suddenly they reverse course. It's easy to use your heart to push you in any direction. Then you become a feather in the wind that blows in any direction. Please don't. Use your brain to think and your heart to love.
