10 year old Journalist from Palestine reporting news from one of the most dangerous places in the world


     
 Janna Jihad Ayyad is one feisty young girl, she has dared to tread where angels feared to and gone to places where demons wouldn't. And she is only 10! Miss Janna calls herself the youngest journalist in the world.

      She says "not a lot of Journalists are sending our message from Palestine to the world, so I thought why not send them the message and show them what is happening in my village''.
   
 Miss Janna says the death of two men in her village of Nabi Saleh helped serve as a trigger for her to begin documenting every unjust occurrence in her village in the West Bank.

     She has gone on to cover stories with the aid of her Mums IPhone in places like Jerusalem, Hebron, Nablus and Jordan. Her videos show everything from people being detained at checkpoints, protest marches and violence against Palestinian children.

      She say her camera is her gun, she believes that the camera is stronger than the gun and that with her camera she can begin a revolution just by sending her message to small people who in turn send it to others.

     Yes Miss Janna if your Facebook page of over a hundred thousand likes is anything to go by, the world hears and sees your messages loud and clear.

Guess who is talking with Cleveland Cavaliers...Dwayne Wade!

 Imagine an NBA defence trying to stop a driving Kyrie Irving and Dwayne Wade , while LeBron James is free to roam in and out of the paint. Although somewhat far-fetched, the possibility is not out of the question.   Despite being offered the $20 million annually he was seeking, from the Miami Heat , Wade is chatting up the Cleveland Cavaliers . Huffington Post sports columnist Jordan Schultz reported the news. "League source: Dwayne Wade in preliminary talks with #Cavs to reunite with LeBron. Talks still early," Schultz tweeted. Wade, 34, is scheduled to meet with the Milwaukee Bucks Wednesday. There could be bad blood between the 12-time All-Star and the organization he has spent 13 seasons with. His wife, Gabrielle Union, alluded to that with a tweet last week saying: "When u waiting for a text/email/skywriting and nada... thanks for being crystal clear." The Heat was silent with Wade as it pursued free agent big-fish Kevin...
