NBC evening news – 5 seconds on the family of 15 whose 2 sons are blown away by a US made missile while boiling water on their roof (no other way to heat water). 15 seconds on the suffering of the poor Israeli family in nearby Sderot who have to get up from their leather sofas, leave their plasma tv in their expansive, floor to ceiling windows and descend a flight of stairs to their built in shelter when the sirens announce another Hamas bottle rocket. Mom wrings her manicured hands, running them over the fine stitching on the leather arm chair and gesturing with her elegant flip phone: “this is not life…”
I am sure the Gaza boys mother can relate… no telephone, no cooking fuel other than wood, minimal food, no reliable sewerage… Yeah, not life. I suppose if Gaza mom could get over the freakin electric fence she and Israeli mom could commiserate about how hard their lives are… Or maybe she would just weep at the life Israel is denying here.
Thanks Martin for the fair and balanced reporting. Good to know you are putting us in touch with the shared and mutual suffering!!! Of course, I am sure CAMERA will be quick to point out you violated rule number one by failing to use the appropriate descriptors for the Gaza family – 2 Terrorist Hamas sympathizers were liquidated by IDF forces while preparing lethal, heated projectiles on their roof. Martin! Shame on you for not correctly identifying the obvious truth that those boys were boiling water to maim innocent Israeli soldiers!
