Bad News, Good News

You are probably aware of what's happening in the Middle East (You're not? Hmmm, it's a small world we are living in so I urge you to read the news). There's an open war between Israel and Hezbollah precipitated by the latter's abduction of two Israeli soldiers and bringing them to Lebanon. Israel is bombing Hezbollah bases in Lebanon and says that they won't stop until the soldiers are released. Hezbollah demands a prisoners swap and started firing their own rockets towards Israel. Iran and Syria are said to be fanning the flames of war by egging on Hezbollah. As of now, no end is in sight.

And there is the tsunami which killed more than 300 (and counting) in Indonesia.

Back here in our country, we have events flowing from Lt. Lawrence San Juan's decision to cooperate with government investigators re Magdalo activities and who harbored them (Bishop Tobias, for example) while they were on the run. Expect a lot more bad news.

Getting tired? Have a taste then of this new website which collates good news on anything Filipino. The creators say they want to focus on our achievements as a people, not as a propaganda tool but an honest-to-goodness telling of our story as a proud race. There are items on business, sports, places, arts and culture, technology and even showbiz. Bookmark the site and have a daily dose of good, inspirational Pinoy news.
