Charging for Internet? Pay to visit blogs?

I know this is way out of the subject of the war on Lebanon and the recent events in the middle east and such, however, please follow my logic and you will see the link.

If the Internet, by that they mean visiting websites and using online services, will not be free anymore, we, the bloggers from Lebanon, wouldn't have been able to transmit our thoughts to abroad and the other way around.

I recommend you check this video out, it explains in a very clear, visual and informative manner how cooperations are looking to charge for the Internet to make even more BUCKS! The presenter is a bit too cheery, nonetheless a movie worth seeing.

We. Unauthorized Arundhati Roy - Abuse of power

I recommend to watch the full documentary, if you're interested please click here.

To check website: http://www.weroy.org.

We is a fast-paced 64 minute documentary that covers the world politics of power, war, corporations, deception and exploitation.

It visualizes the words of Arundhati Roy, specifically her famous Come September speech, where she spoke on such things as the war on terror, corporate globalization, justice and the growing civil unrest.

Witty, moving, alarming and quite a lesson in modern history.

*Edited: The following two links are also parts that were cut from the documentary in case the connection was slow and can't view the full movie.
Arundhati Roy on the Palestinian / Israeli Conflict
Unauthorized Arundhati Roy - America & the world

Take an hour and watch the atrocity of Israel on Palestine

Until now it appears that more than half the visitors to our blog are Americans, and I will take this opportunity to tell the americans to watch this footage! Americans in particular must see this video, to see how their beloved government is hiding the truth from them. I doubt anyone watching this movie, will still think the same afterwards.

IDF soldiers and officers have declined and signed a petition of not wanting to serve in the occupied territory, because it required starving, humiliating and patronizing the palestinians, and some of these soldiers have paid the price by going to jail and being called "traitors".

Jews who have believed that Palestine should be given a state of their own, were called "self-hating jews", and "traitors".

Everyone in the world should see this footage, for all other bloggers, make sure you put a link to this!
