Video questions

1. Have you had a look on various sources to find out what Marc does? Marc's real name is Omer Gershon and he is an Israel actor even though he claimed himself to be an American gay rights activist. He participated in Israel hoax campaign that was created in order to support Israel government's blockade of Gaza.

 2. How does this video related to the flotilla movement? This video was made by the Israel government for an attempt to trick the viewers and convince them to think that Palestinian, Hamas and the Flotilla movement is bad. They are trying to shove that image of the Flotilla movement being a discriminating, violent, and murderous movement. The Israel government are trying to pull as many people on their side as they can using this video.

 3. Is the video objective? The video is not objective, because the Israel government is behind this, meaning they could have altered or biased some information in order for us to support them.

 4. Is there evidence supporting Marc3pax's findings? No. He didn't give evidence on his information about the Hamas and the Palestinian government.We don't know which organization did he write to. We don't even know if the "email" is real.

Reflection


Every day I eat fruit in the morning, during breakfast, right before I have a cup of coffee. When I do this I feel healthy. I think it is good for my health and it’s nice to eat that in the morning. It was good because the fruit had a nice flavour and was sweet. What was not good about it is that sometimes I forget to eat fruit, or the fruit is bitter. The sense I can make of the situation is that I did not try the fruit before I put all of it in my plate, therefore it was wasted and I did not eat fruit that day. Anything else I could have done would be putting sugar on the fruit and simply eat it. If the problem arose, what I could have done, is maybe try the food before I put it in my plate, so I can eat it since I know it is not bitter.
