Something to think about... Hello friends, I usually try to hold my tongue and use politically correct words in my articles and stories for viewzone. The magazine's management is concerned that the advertising revenue might be seriously affected by the flavor of my writing, which may be offensive to some of our advertisers. Recently, viewzone asked me to cover the war in Gaza and I was quickly receiving photographs and videos of the slaughter of hundreds of innocent children. Well, when I saw these images I just lost it. There is no excuse for this and so I decided to tell it like it is. The actions of Israel are war crimes -- plain and simple. While CNN carries stories about Donny and Marie, little Caylee Anthony and Brad and Angelina, the photographs of mangled, half-dead and eviscerated little bodies in the streets of Gaza go uncpublished. Why? If these were American children or Israeli kids we would have hour-long specials with a logo and theme music! But you sure as hell will see these images here on viewzone. And we will not mince words in telling you that Israel is responsible for this atrocity! I have to go to foreign news services to learn that a Palestinian family had to watch, helpless, as Israeli soldiers set their dogs to eat the 4 year old wounded little girl in the street as they ate crackers and encouraged the dogs to finish her off. Or how infants -- babies -- were being burned by white phosphorus that can not be put out with water and continues to burn flesh clean to the bone. Their blackened corpses reminded me of some ovens somewhere in the past. Or how about 70 civilians -- families -- that were instructed by Israelis to gather in a house "to be safe" and were all bombed to death! This wasn't Warsaw -- it was Gaza. This wasn't some 20th Century nightmare in Europe -- it was January 2009 in Gaza. The Israelis know they are guilty of these crimes and they have just set up special funds to defend themselves and have protected the names of the IDF commanders who would be responsible. They know. But what's more important is WE know and we won't let it be forgotten. These acts are like the script of a Nazi massacre movie, but they are being committed for real by Jews -- people who should (of all people) detest these kinds of crimes. Shame on you! Shame on anyone who dares to justify what has been done! By even attempting to justify these horrific acts you speak loudly of your own inhumanity and evil. I call the Israelis who did these things "inhuman" because I choose to believe that humans are not capable of such evil. It remains yet to be seen if the Obama administration will veto any UN censure or try to politically stop the trial in the World Court for these war crimes. If so then it's all over for Obama. All the "change" and "hope" will be proven to be just taglines to get elected. No. We will NEVER forget this Gaza Holucaust. The pages and images will remain on our web site like the Holocaust Museum remains to remind everyone of an evil that men are capable of doing -- but which must never be done again. From now on the very word "HOLOCAUST" will refer to these innocent children in Gaza and we will remember that it was Israel that did it. I hope one day to see the Gaza Holocaust Museum in a free Palestine. Dan Eden / viewzone.com ViewZone Magazine || Comments or threats?
