I'm really seriously looking into that. Whenever stories about the Middle East come on TV, the screen will just go blank...until there's a story about apple pies in Pennsylvania, or roller coasters at Six Flags.
Israel hitting Hezbollah targets, riots in Gaza, blah blah...it's all just blending together for me. Then when I hear America somehow blame Iran for all this as an excuse, it really makes me wanna retch.
Maybe I can just turn it to ESPN...yeah, TNT has Goodfellas on later tonight...cool.
Middle East..."ignore".

With you on the Iran thingy.. how desperate is the U.S. getting to find an excuse to hit Iran. Be thankful you don't live in that region..they probably don't even get ESPN and the news is "live" on the street.

It's the American way - hit the ignore button buddy and see whatever you want to see. It's called freedom. People fought and died so that you could do whatever you want, even if that means throwing that freedom away. Ignore the middle east away and while you're at it ignore elections - why vote - ignore paying taxes - ignore all responsibility.
Rome fell due to "ignore - ance" all free countries fall due to excessive freedom and wealth.
The apathetic have already gained control - non-voters outnumber those that care. Those that respect their education are outnumbered by those that shoot for a "D" and prefer video games, cell phones and starbucks.
Beware what you ignore - You might become an "Ignore ant" fool that loses his/her hard earned FREEDOM.
The world is too small to ignore a part of it - that is working on nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons that can be delivered to your front door. IGNORE AND YOU MAY PAY THE ULTIMATE PRICE - YOUR LIFE

when Israel is on fault it ignore , when it is a victum it shows it as the main event and the main tragedy .
just a note : Israel now is NOT hitting Hizbullah , at least 90% of it's fire is at the main infrastucture of lebanon itself , and at civilians of poor villegers in south lebanon , men, women and children .... maybe that's why there is an ignorance, but having one israeli soldier as a war hostage to trade with hundreds tortured for years in the israel prisons , they kall it kiddnaping and make it the tragedy of the world
i'm sorry for the country i always loved USA

Bombs and bomb threats can not be ignored if we don't want 9/11 to repeat itself. Terrorizm need to be dealt with, but the way we are going about it is questiionable. We can't ignore them because they will not let us. But we can stop funding their causes.
