Silent Bombs
A recent communiqué from Adbusters magazine points out just how badly Palestine is losing, not only to the brutal, disproportionate violence currently exacted on the residents of Gaza by Israel, but also to the West’s ridiculous one-sided or neutered media coverage of the assault. They suggest forwarding the following article, Who is Winning the PR War?, and the following video, posted below. Graphic, “Silent Bombs”: Nidal El-Khairy.

extremely biased, but Israel makes their case in that interview, the significant difference in these killings: Hamas hides behind innocents, while Israeli soldiers stand up to defend their innocent from terrorism.
so is that why Amnesty International published a report which found that Isreali soldiers had used young Palestinian boys in Gaza as 'human shields' in the conflict.. ???
I guess Palestinian civilians don't count…
I’m sick of people trying to take a side, whereas any violence should be rigorously condemned. It didn’t help in the past and we were foolish that it will help solve the problems in the future.
It’s a confession of failure that the Jews of Israel haven’t learned anything from their past in which they were the ones suffering from violent repression.
Certainly, Hamas doesn’t seem to care for its own people, and the Israeli don’t care about anybody but themselves.
Palestinian people have no one to defend them, it’s a folk with no state, no power, no rights.
What is despicable is the elitist global society in which I live.
dear karl,
"palestinian people have no one to defend them"
the plastenian people chose hamas as their rulers. (the same hamas that keeps provoking violance)
do u know that Israel supply the electricity to the gaza strip? do u know that most of the food comes from israel?
now it doesnt justifies killing of innocent people, but dont u think theres a time when a country should defend its civilians?
I dont know where u come from, but imagin that twice a day for the last 8 years rockets are falling on ur home town, rockets that destroy property and kill people indiscriminatly. now imagin living in a place like this. there are about 200,000 people living in israel for the last 8 years that this is their daily routine.
now israel havent done nothing about it for the last 8 years trying to solve it by means of peace.
now what do u suggest?
To say that Gaza is losing the PR war is like saying that Obama lost the 2008 election. Both statements have the same truth value, but one is infinitely more ridiculous.
