Fuji X-E2 plus Samyang telephoto mirror lens. Perhaps any image made away from the scene and trying to honestly symbolise the suffering in Gaza must be inadequate. "Let them eat lead" is my attempt to visualise the disregard for Palestinian life that is en vogue among the Israeli government. Terms like "war crimes" and "genocide" are in the air and they undermine the legitimacy of the State of Israel and the very reason for its establishment. Huge damage has been done to the lives of the Palestinians and, concerning the reputation of Israel, a demolition job is going on.
The Israel River, sometimes referred to as Israel's River, is a 23.2-mile-long (37.3 km) river in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, in the United States. It rises in the township of Low and Burbank's Grant and runs generally northwest along U.S. Route 2, traversing the towns of Jefferson and Lancaster, before joining the Connecticut River.
The Abenaki people called the river Siwooganock, which means "place of the burnt pine trees". The first name given to the river by English settlers was "Powers River" in honor of Captain Peter Powers (1707-1757), who in 1754 became the first to explore this area.
The present name comes from an early hunter and trapper named Israel Glines, whose camp was situated near the outlet of the river. The Johns River, in the nearby town of Whitefield, is named for Israel's brother John.

Thank you for visiting!
I continuously stopped along this road to take pictures; I was amazed at the physical beauty of the Dead Sea. The rocky mesas on the left in this picture reminded me of the mountains along I-70 between Eagle and Gypsum, Colorado. My friend in Israel saw the pictures I came back with and I could see how sad they made him. The water used to reach the edge of the road, barely visible in this picture along the base of the mountains. However, within the last decade, desalinization of the Dead Sea has drastically reduced water levels.
