Little Girl Wrapped in Green

What if she were YOUR CHILD, American?

What if the daughters were YOUR DAUGHTERS?

How would you feel then?

Nothing about the girls' funerals in the body of the article, though.


"Israel vows 'all-out war' on Hamas; Palestinians put death toll at 364; Rockets continue to rain from Gaza" by Griff Witte and Sudarsan Raghavan, Washington Post | December 30, 2008

JERUSALEM - Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak declared "an all-out war against Hamas" yesterday, as fighter jets raked the Gaza Strip with bombs for the third straight day and as Palestinian fighters sent dozens of rockets flying deep into Israeli territory.

The Palestinian death toll rose to 364, according to Palestinian medical officials. The Israeli death toll stood at four, including three people killed in rocket fire yesterday....

"Amid casualties, Gaza's civilians say there is no escaping onslaught" by Ibrahim Barzak and Diaa Hadid, Associated Press | December 30, 2008

GAZA CITY - In three days of treating the wounded from Israel's air assault, nurse Ragda Mustafa has not had time to shower when she changes her blood-splattered clothes, and she takes just brief naps at her small hospital in northern Gaza.

At one point, she collapsed, mistaking a dead child she helped carry on a stretcher for her own son. Eight children under the age of 17 were killed in overnight strikes, medics said....

The UN said Sunday that one Palestinian UN employee and eight trainees were also among the dead. UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon again condemned what he called Israel's excessive use of force and urged an immediate cease-fire....

Yup, Iz-ray-HELL can KILL U.N. PERSONNEL and GET AWAY with it as well as snub all the resolutions!

That basically tells you WHO is CALLING the SHOTS down there, and why the world does NOTHING!!!!

And for the ultimate in hypocritical chutzpah, just chew on this for a while:

.... George Saxe, 70, who works at the Butcherie, a nearby grocery store stocked with Israeli products, said.... "If it was me, I'd take an A-bomb and wipe them out."

Oh, my bowels!!!!
