O Inferno

No Haaretz: crimes de guerra, racismo e brutalidade durante a operação 'Cast Lead' em Gaza.

A direita israelita desumanizou há muito os palestinianos: "we should kill everyone there [in the center of Gaza]. Everyone there is a terrorist."

Como dizia Woody Allen, a pergunta é sempre a mesma: para estes fanáticos, a vida de um judeu vale mais que a de um gentio?

Se é assim, será possível esperar que algum dia haja paz no Médio Oriente?

«the atmosphere in general, from what I understood from most of my men who I talked to ... I don't know how to describe it .... The lives of Palestinians, let's say, is something very, very less important than the lives of our soldiers. So as far as they are concerned they can justify it that way»

«The squad leader said he argued with his commander over the permissive rules of engagement that allowed the clearing out of houses by shooting without warning the residents beforehand. After the orders were changed, the squad leader's soldiers complained that "we should kill everyone there [in the center of Gaza]. Everyone there is a terrorist."»

É lindo. E é uma guerra defensiva, dizem eles.
