Wanted to share an email I received....

I commend the musician named Michael Heart, was so demoralized by the ongoing horror in Gaza that he wrote the following. The link to his song is at the end.

"on Monday night (2 nights ago), I picked up my acoustic guitar and started strumming lightly, while looking at these horrible photos of the casualties in Gaza, on the Internet. It was around midnight my time. And before I knew it, by 2 AM, I had written a song about it. The next day (which was yesterday, Tuesday), I decided to record it, not really knowing what I was going to do with it. It was just an emotional outlet for me. But then it occurred to me that maybe if the song was distributed on a massive scale, it could raise awareness about the cause. But more on that later...

I also created a little "home made" slide show, with the song in the background (some pictures are very graphic so please warn your friends).

Anyway, for what it's worth, here's the song.

P.S. The song is called "We will not go down"

It was really nice. Tragic but hopeful.

The few pictures from the London peace marches in the montage really moved me as well.
