Israel may win this battle but they have lost the war. Their cruelty, genocide and shame has now been witnessed by the world.
A Cease Fire will not make us forget what they did!
[The Israeli's removed one of the most powerful and truthful videos from YouTube that once appeared here. It showed the result of a bomb dropped on a group of young children riding bicycles in Gaza. Many were eviscerated or lost arms and legs but were still alive when this was filmed. It had a powerful anti-war impact on whomever saw it... which is likely the reason it was removed. We have a copy of it but we've decided that the following images, from inside Gaza, are graphic enough to make our point. We're sorry if these images offend anyone but our only goal is to do our small pert to force people to STOP KILLING CHILDREN! Your hundreds of supportive e-mails and contributions are appreciated. Thank you for helping us show the world what mainstream news media will not show. --Editor / viewzone]
What kind of barbaric beasts do this? What kind of parents can do this to any children? What kind of nations permit this? How can this ever be forgiven or forgotten?
Will this bring peace?
"They grow up day after day and night after night. Within a second, I have lost them," the girls' father, Anwar Balousha, said yesterday. The 37-year-old, along with another three of his children, was himself injured in the attack on the densely populated Jabalya refugee camp.
Each dead body has a family that now must avenge this murder...
The victors!
The victims!
Yes, this was once someone's baby, Saheed Halima, just 2 years old, carried inside for 9 months and loved just like you love your own children. Read how she died. Could YOU ever forgive this?
No. It will never be forgotten or forgiven!
"If you do not kill me, you will only make me stronger." January 1, 2009: Four leading Israeli rabbis have sanctioned the murder of civilian population in the Gaza Strip amid the Israeli onslaught on the region. "When a population living near a Jewish town sends bombs at the Jewish town with the purpose of killing and destroying Jewish lives there, it is permitted, according to Jewish Law, to fire shells and bombs at the firing sites, even if they are populated by civilians," read a ruling issued by Rabbi Yaakov Yosef, Rabbi Dov Lior, Rabbi Shalom Dov Wolpe and Rabbi Meir Mazuz. Who are the real terrorists? Israel: Don't even speak about peace Mon, 29 Dec 2008 22:39:08 GMT Israel's envoy to the United Nations says that there will be no negotiations about peace, as Tel Aviv attacks Gaza for a third day. Israel started an 'all-out' war on the Gaza Strip as of Saturday. At least 345 Palestinians have been killed and about 1,550 have been wounded, Palestinian Medics told Press TV on Monday. When asked about possible peace in the future, Israel's envoy, Gabriela Shalev, told CNN on Monday, "Don't even speak about peace at this moment."

UPDATE: January 1, 2009 With the Israeli imposed news blackout in Gaza, all we see on the news are photos of well dressed Jewish women being wheeled inside ambulances by police wearing orange safety vests, looking distressed. These images are from the damage done by missile attacks sent in to Israel by Palestinians in Gaza. But what we do not see now are the stories in Gaza, where there are no ambulances or well dressed citizens and where the mood, far from being distressed, is full of horror. Here is a glimpse of what Israel has decided that you should not see. Mohammed El-Ewadi is a very calm, polite, shy, and clever boy. He is an orphan living at AL AMAL Orphanage in Gaza. Mohammed left the orphanage early in the morning, to his final exam at school. he was ready for his exam, and looking forward to the winter vacation, as he was planning to learn photography and computer drawing. He was supposed to come back to the orphanage at 11:00 AM, as he is used to come back from school right away. We waited and waited. Mohammed did not come back. We went out looking for him everywhere, but we couldn't find him. We went to the hospital many times asking about him, the hospital was a total chaos, no one was able to help us. Finally at 7:00 PM we were permitted to enter the ICU to look for Mohammed between the many unknown victims. Yes, Mohammed was one of the many victims of the crimes committed against Gaza yesterday. He was laid unconscious on one of the beds. I have no words to describe the situation inside the ICU. I can only ask every one receives this message to pray for Mohammed and all the people inside the ICU and in Gaza. What was Mohammed's crime!!?? The only fault Mohammed made was that he took his time solving the exam questions. He did not know then that these were his last moments, he was still planning to finish school and go to the university. He wanted to go to law school. Ahmed (Mohammed's younger brother) doesn't want to believe that the one in the hospital is his brother Mohammed. He did not eat anything since yesterday morning. He is still waiting for his older brother and roommate to eat with him. It seems that he is going to wait for too long! Yes Ahmed is an orphan, lost his father some years ago, yes he was living in an orphanage, but he was living with his older brother. Now Ahmed is living a new tragedy!! End of story, But the tragedy continues, Enjoy your time.  Footage of Israeli helicopter firing what appears to be outlawed white phosphorus on the streets of Gaza. These bombs cause intense heat and burn flesh, causing an extremely painful death. Most victims are children. See story in The Times. What's next?
Incandescent particles of WP may produce extensive burns. Phosphorus burns on the skin are deep and painful; a firm eschar is produced and is surrounded by vesiculation. The burns usually are multiple, deep, and variable in size. The solid in the eye produces severe injury. The particles continue to burn unless deprived of atmospheric oxygen. Contact with these particles can cause local burns. These weapons are particularly nasty because white phosphorus continues to burn until it disappears. If service members are hit by pieces of white phosphorus, it could burn right down to the bone. Burns usually are limited to areas of exposed skin (upper extremities, face). Burns frequently are second and third degree because of the rapid ignition and highly lipophilic properties of white phosphorus.
January 5, 2009: See Families in Gaza are being killed inside their homes! Main stream media finally begins to tell it like it is.
Just watch and cry... No. We will NEVER forgive or forget who did this! Israelis Test New Weapons on Palestinians Dubai: A doctor at a Palestinian hospital has accused Israel of using a type of chemical ammunition which causes burns and injuries in soft tissue and cannot be traced by X-ray. Chemical or depleted uranium could have been used in producing the new type of ammunition according to Dr Jomaa Al Saqqa, head of the Emergency Unit at Gaza's main medical facility, the Al Shifa Hospital. In a telephone interview, Al Saqqa told Gulf News that operation Summer Rain was not just the code name of a military operation launched by Israel against Gaza since June 26. "It is a live exercise on a new ammunition that, so far, has resulted in killing 50 Palestinians and injuring 200," he said. He said he was not yet sure about the kind of chemical being used because the Israeli Army had bombed the only criminal laboratory in Gaza on the first day of the assault. Dr Saqqa who has been working in the Al Shifa Hospital for almost 10 years said he had never seen such wounds before. At the beginning of the Summer Rain operation I noticed that people's wounds looked strange. I thought it was just because the attack was from a close distance or that the temperature of bullets penetrating the bodies of injured or killed people were so high they were causing burns. I later found out that all wounds referred to the hospital since the start of the operation were very similar. "I also noticed that despite the damage in internal soft tissue in the bodies of injured people, the fragments were not detected by X-ray. In other words, they had disappeared or dissolved inside the body." Al Saqqa urged the international health authorities to come to Gaza and check the wounds of people in Al Shifa Hospital. "The situation is very bad because out of the 200 injuries there are 50 children who are suffering badly because of their internal wounds caused by the new kind of ammunition," he said. Israel is one of the top nations who sell arms around the world. The current war provides them with a real testing ground for their effectiveness. Unfortunately, the "experiment" involves living children.
 A man tries to pull the body of 4-year-old Kaukab Al Dayah out of the rubble of a house that collapsed after an Israeli missile attack in Gaza City on Tuesday. The child died with 17 other members of the Al-Dayah extended family. Imagine this was your little girl. Could you ever forgive the Israelis? (AP) Gaza's day of carnage - 40 dead as Israelis bomb two UN schools! The UN security council debating the Gaza attacks Link to this video Israel's assault on Gaza has exacted the bloodiest toll of civilian lives yet, when the bombing of UN schools being used as refugee centres and of housing killed more than 50 people, including an entire family of seven young children. The UN protested at a "complete absence of accountability" for the escalating number of civilian deaths in Gaza, saying "the rule of the gun" had taken over. Doctors in Gaza said more than 40 people died, including children, in what appears to be the biggest single loss of life of the campaign when Israeli bombs hit al-Fakhora school, in Jabaliya refugee camp, while it was packed with hundreds of people who had fled the fighting. Lest we forget... the 17,500 dead -- almost all civilians, most of them children and women – in Israel's 1982 invasion of Lebanon; the 1,700 Palestinian civilian dead in the Sabra-Chatila massacre; the 1996 Qana massacre of 106 Lebanese civilian refugees, more than half of them children, at a UN base; the massacre of the Marwahin refugees who were ordered from their homes by the Israelis in 2006 then slaughtered by an Israeli helicopter crew; the 1,000 dead of that same 2006 bombardment and Lebanese invasion, almost all of them civilians? Get your mind around this: "...During a three-hour pause in the fighting to allow in food and fuel and let medics collect the dead, nearly three dozen bodies were found beneath the rubble of bombed out buildings in Gaza City. Many of the dead were in the same neighborhood where the international Red Cross said rescuers discovered young children too weak to stand who had stayed, dazed and speechless, clinging to their dead mothers..." Full story at Yahoo News. Read this First hand account of the killing from Gaza. Also, Israeli dogs eat 4 yr old's body while parents forced to watch. And, Small Palestinian boy's body used for Israeli's target practice. "I watched an Israeli soldier kill my two little girls!"
After this HOLOCAUST of the Palestinians -- don't they also deserve a HOMELAND? Let's open the eyes of the world! www.viewzone.com/g-massacro.html
Think: "Seven-Two-Nine, Free Pal-es-tine!" AMERICAN JEWS OPPOSE ISRAELI POLICY IN GAZA Jan 22nd, 2009 "We Shall Not Be a Party to Their Counsel!" As human beings, we are shocked and appalled at the mass destruction unleashed by the State of Israel against the people of Gaza in its current military operation, following years of Israeli occupation, siege, and deprivation. As Americans, we protest the carte blanche given Israel by the US government to pursue a war of "national honor," "restoring deterrence," "destroying Hamas," and "searing Israel's military might into the consciousness of the Gazans." As progressives, we reject the same justifications for the carnage that we heard ad nauseam from the supporters of the Second Iraq War: the so-called "war on terror," the "clash of civilizations," the "need to re-establish deterrence" -- all of which served to justify a misguided and unnecessary war, with disastrous consequences for America and Iraq. But as Jews of different religious persuasions, from Orthodox to secular atheist, we are especially horrified that a state that purports to speak in our name wages a military campaign that has killed over 1,000 people, a large percentage of them civilians, children, and non-combatants, with little or no consideration for human rights or the laws of war. While the moral and legal issue concerning Israel's right to respond militarily in these circumstance can be debated, there is near-universal agreement that its conduct of the military operation has been unjust and even criminal -- with only the usual apologists for the Jewish state disagreeing. As Jews, we stand united with another Israel, the patriarch Jacob, who cursed his sons Simeon and Levi for massacring the people of Shechem in revenge for the rape of their sister Dinah. Like Jacob, "we shall not be a party to the counsel of zealots. We shall not be counted in their assembly." (See Genesis 34. 49: 5-7). As Jews, we stand united with the Jewish sages who rejected the zealotry of the Jewish "terrorists" at Masada, those who masked ethnic tribalism in the cloak of "self-defense" and "national honor." Finally, as American Jewish progressives, and as human beings, we condemn Hamas and Israel for violating the human rights of civilians on both sides, although we do not necessarily declare these violations to be morally or legally equivalent. We affirm the rights of both Israeli and the Palestinian peoples to self-determination and self-defense, as we affirm the rights of both Israelis and Palestinians to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
