Peace is precious

When everyone thinks that they should forget the past, the pain in their hearts actually still exists. The male protagonist had a conflict and was scolded because of his water pipe being forcibly remodeled. High, but its root cause was a massacre 40 years ago, which made him hate the Palestinians and feel that they should apologize (actually, the cause of that massacre was the pro-Israel Christian party, which is now targeting Palestinian refugees caused by slaughter). As for the second man, as a Palestinian refugee, he can legally work in Lebanon only as a foreman, not a worker (local law stipulates that Palestinians cannot work outside the refugee camp). And when I was young, I was also hurt by Jordanian soldiers, so although I wanted to apologize, the sentence "I hope Sharon will kill all the Palestinians" finally made this ordinary quarrel rise to the height of the court. The events that followed were completely out of control, to the point where even the president could not intervene. But the two male protagonists are ordinary people after all, and they are both kind-hearted people, and the lawyers of the prosecution and defense also realized that the situation was seriously out of control and the impact on the entire country, so the incident was finally resolved reasonably. , but a word from the prosecution's lawyer: When everyone is paying attention to the tragic experience of the Palestinian refugee, have you set aside a little bit of attention to pay attention to the life and experience of him (the people at the bottom of Lebanon)?

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the war in the Middle East, the ultimate victims are not necessarily the weak, and the strong Israel cannot bear too much war damage (Jews suffered very badly in World War II), the Palestinians, and the surrounding countries and nations, also suffer Not too much blow.

It is impossible to forget history, but always emphasizing historical hatred can only prolong the pain caused by war. Without peace, there will be no development. If the people of the Middle East cannot calm down and forget history for a while, the clutches of war will never disappear.

    The two said it was just a personal issue, but in fact it was a dispute arising from the appearance of hatred between the country and the family. At the same time, the director also reminded that one thing should not be intercepted to see the phenomenon, but must be completely analyzed to see the essence. The idea of ​​this script is good. It spreads from one point, and the quarrel of the individual spreads to the political status quo of the country and the historical rift between the ethnic groups. The cumulative energy is snowballing. [B]

    #DocumentaryPhoto# First watch "What's Home" and then watch "Shame", the logic before and after all makes sense. The refugee issue in Lebanon (especially Palestine refugees) is the most sensitive area in the country, involving religious beliefs, political positions, survival and human rights. The lawyer's words are sharp, "In this country, Palestinians are just as embarrassed as gypsies, small traders, black people, and homosexuals." The national sensational trial in the film is actually just a national reagent, used to show the intricate and intertwined And move the whole body of religious disputes and ethnic conflicts. In the face of such a film, you have little to say other than awe and silent contemplation.
