A LETTER FROM GAZA
March 1, 2008 at 7:58 pm (Genocide, Occupation, Palestine)
Dear Friends,
I had a long day, an awful day, taking photos and writing from on the ground in Gaza City and northern Gaza. I met with two children who survived Wednesday’s Jabalyia soccer bombing: the other 4 kids were, as you likely know, killed. One of the children I saw had no flesh on their legs, had burns all over their bodies from the tank’s shelling. This was one of the scariest things I have seen yet, and I have seen a lot more than that.
I asked one boy to give me details of what happened that Thursday afternoon. The 9 year old boy cried while he told that he’d seen the decapitated head of his cousin strewn far from his body, arms and legs, far away from where they were all playing soccer. His mother added that there wasn’t any electricity when her son was admitted to the hospital.
He was crying as he told the story, his tears hurting him even more than his psychological pain, as he has burns in his eyes. His mother uncovered his wounded leg where I could only see bones without flesh in places. I could not understand how he managed to lay down conscious, but knew it was a consciousness full of pain and anguish. I felt this pain in my own heart and head.
As I talked this child’s mother, she said that she’d had to evacuate her children, as it’s no longer safe to be in that area where the children had been playing. The kids ranged from 6 to 14 years old. The two ones who survived said they had all been playing soccer in front of the door of their house in Jabalyia when the Israeli missile hit them.
I finally came back home some hours ago, after waiting a long time to find transportation. But, eventually managing to make it back to Rafah, I collapsed for a nap for an hour. My sleep was disrupted: I awoke scared by the bombing of F-16s (I learned later on). I ran from my bed through our dark house, and seeing no one from my family inside, I ran without shoes into the street. People were out in the street, young men running. I didn’t understand, didn’t know what I was doing other than that I was running but didn’t know to where. Most people’s windows were down, shutters closed, as it is freezing cold at moment.
I was glad not to be injured by shattered glass and debris on the streets. I made it back home to write this on my laptop. But I’ve decided going back to sleep is not a good idea, no matter how exhausted I am. If I have to die (not my wish) , I want to be awake, so I know I’m dying, and by whom. Not asleep.

I’ve been watching all this unfold over the last few days in a surreal fog. I don’t know what to do other than repeatedly send emails and beg for someone in a position of power and influence to have the courage to crawl out from under the jack-boot of Zionism. Where are the world leaders who should call for cessation of Israel’s atrocities, other than closing their eyes and covering their ears to the truth? As Israel stands poised to wage a full invasion on people desperately fighting to take back their human dignity and that which was stolen from them, I feel powerless to help.

This is the end my only friend, this is the end. For out of chaos, murder, and abject destruction arises the Phoenix. And Palestine shall be that Phoenix and arise reborn. Reborn free. Reborn healed of the wounds. Reborn released from the yoke of tyranny. So let it be written, so let it be done. The Pharisees shall be rebuked by the Most High and the Sadducees shall be laid to waste. There is justice and it shall be just and it shall be met out to the unjust. A spark of resistance sparks a fire of revolution and a revolting repression fires a furnace of rebirth. Suffer for a while longer oh Palestine and blessed are thee in suffering. Thou are NOT forgotten even though things would seem to be so. Palestine, ye shall be free and ye shall be healed and ye shall be avenged. In truth these things are so. Suffer for a while longer oh Palestine and blessed are thee in suffering.

It is amazing and that is why the Jews are against the holocaust denial, because they were the ones who caused the holocaust of millions of German, Russians and European Christians, when I see these pictures of the Palestinians I can see what happened in Europe 62 years ago.The are the ones causing the tribulations of the world, they have destabilized the countries, they have stolen the richess of all of them and so they have formed a State which is illegal at the expense and sacrifice of billions of inhabitants of earth, THEY ARE THE USELESS EATER, PARASITES, THEY WILL NEVER CHANGE, THEY WERE BORN THAT WAY.

Andrea, I sadly agree with you. How is it that these Zionist can sleep at night? I have these moments daily while I am doing little things that is when I realize that all is not well. I want to help, I want to scream.
Obama was at first behind the Palestinians now he backs the Zionist, you can thank Liberman for bring him around to his side.
Like the natives of this country they are being destroyed simply for being there first. History repeats itself. No one learns.
