Nessuna parola, nessun proclama, silenzio per una terra che sta bruciando...
VITTIME - Il triste bilancio dell'azione militare è ovviamente impossibile da verificare. Secondo il capo dei servizi di pronto soccorso locali, Muawiya Hassanein, almeno 500 palestinesi - fra cui 87 bambini - sono rimasti uccisi dall'inizio dell'operazione israeliana «Piombo fuso», il 27 dicembre.
The Gaza Strip club... Best, Rarebit, Bird. Not the best pic as it was dark... but the mood kind of suits it.
Gettin po-liti-cal on yo ass!
"The Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) continued their indiscriminate attacks in the Gaza Strip for the sixteenth consecutive day, with the estimated number of victims rising to 884. During the reporting period, IOF attacks were most ferocious in Gaza City and the northern Gaza Strip, where Palestinian civilians continued to be killed indiscriminately. The killing of children has become a characteristic of the attacks in both these areas. The increasing number of civilian victims, especially children and women, and the continuing use of excessive lethal force against civilians and their property, indicates that IOF is aiming to cause maximum deaths of Palestinian civilians and destruction of their property.
Scenes of death and destruction in the Gaza Strip are now reminiscent of the massacres perpetrated in the Sabra, Shatilla and Qana refugee camps in Lebanon in 1982. The Palestinian Centre for Human Rights (PCHR) has a dedicated team of field workers, whose ongoing investigations indicate that IOF are employing weapons which may be internationally prohibited in order to attack civilians in densely populated area throughout the Gaza Strip. These weapons include bombs that detonate before landing, dispersing flaming shrapnel which is causing intense burning of skin down to the bone, and thus destroys limbs. IOF have also deployed bombs that release dense, toxic smelling white smoke that has caused suffocation and fainting amongst victims."

—- may the land of PALESTINE & the people of GAZA find PEACE & the strength to fight for their FREEDOM & A brighter future ! Ameen
Perhaps this picture makes you feel that the evening atmosphere in Gaza City is calm, safe and bright.
The exact opposite is happening now.
The innocent residents of Gaza City hate the night because it is the time when bombs fall on them from the air, land, and sea, which destroy their homes, their bodies, and kill them, their children, their neighbors, and everyone who is Affected by the massive explosions.
I am very affected by what is happening now and I want military vehicles and bulldozers to leave my country. They uproot houses, trees, streets and everything. I completely feel what children, women and youth feel when there is no water, medicine or a safe place. How does it happen and what do you feel when you do not find a safe place for you and your family? All I can do is share the thousands of appeals that reach me from inside this city that has been under siege for many years. The war must stop now.
