Unless otherwise indicated, all the names, characters, businesses, places, events and incidents in this book are either the product of the author's imagination or used in a fictitious manner. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental.

It was hard for Aadil to feel sorry for himself. Even though he hadn't told his family he had been fired yet. Even though he wasn't sure how he was going to pay next month's bills?!

But his problems seemed so small, when he saw the faces of crying Palestinian children standing amidst rubble wailing for their parents now dead. Their crime to be born into an open air prison called Gaza.

Aadil thought of his nephews and nieces safe and sound in Canada and couldn't imagine what he would do if anything ever happened to them. Yet each day another dead child, now numbering in the thousands. He wanted to look away, but if he stopped sharing, who would?

Aadil went to his computer, anger building in him. Since he was already fired he didn't really care much. His cat Hello Katten Esquire the 4th tried to jump on the keyboard. He gently removed him before typing.

Will the Prime Minister of Canada show he isn't controlled by the Zionist lobby in Canada and sanction Israel?

He posted it it on Rightawaymessage with a picture of the Prime Minister in a clown suit.

He put on his track suit, and to blow off steam went down to the gym in his condo building.

But before he could get into a rhythm a message popped up on WhyTalk Messenger. It was from his mother who had screenshotted his message and responded.

Aadil Beta don't post this it could jeopardize your job!

He wanted to feel brave. He typed back.

I don't care, they can fire me for all I care.

"She doesn't have to know the exact details yet does she?" Aadil said to himself.

The phone instantly rang, and all of a sudden Aadil began to sweat, but it wasn't from the workout...
