Stop the massacre
LeDaro: Gaza situation worsens – It is a tragedy of extraordinary proportion
"Israel is a democratic country that is behaving like a terrorist organization."
"The true story behind this war is not the one Israel is telling"
World Report: Jonathan Hari, "The true story behind this war is not the one Israel is telling," Independent, December 29, 2008,
The world isn't just watching the Israeli government commit a crime in Gaza; we are watching it self-harm. This morning, and tomorrow morning, and every morning until this punishment beating ends, the young people of the Gaza Strip are going to be more filled with hate, and more determined to fight back, with stones or suicide vests or rockets. Israeli leaders have convinced themselves that the harder you beat the Palestinians, the softer they will become. But when this is over, the rage against Israelis will have hardened, and the same old compromises will still be waiting by the roadside of history, untended and unmade.
