The Palestine (Latin : Syria Palestine ; Biblical Hebrew: פּלשת , Pelesheth or ארץ פּלשתיים , erezt Pelishtiyim , "land of the Philistines; modern Hebrew : פלשתינה , Palestine, or ארץ - ישראל, Eretz Yisrael ; Arabic: فلسطين , Filastin ) is a historical region of the Near East between the Mediterranean Sea and the river Jordan . Currently the territory is divided between the State of Israel, the Palestinian territories , and partly by Jordan, Lebanon and Syria, which is the area of \u200b\u200bthe British Mandate of Palestine (1920 - 1948) west of the Jordan River .
The term Palestine is also used to refer to the proposed Palestinian state . Inside the Israeli-Palestinian conflict this sense arouses violent controversy. Two days after Christmas
Israel begins bombing the Gaza Strip.the third day of the bombing Defense Minister Israel (the one who commands the army) said 'Israel has launched an all-out war against Hamas and its relatives' , phrase flavor to justify the Nazi stermionio of an entire population, as if they were not human as if they were animals, as if they were another race. The 'similar' Hamas are women, children, boys and girls of the people of the Gaza Strip, which Hamas have democratically voted for and support him every day, they do live in a thousand streams of the Palestinian resistance.
The United States declares that it is the fault of Hamas, the main European countries, at least in the statements have already capitulated.
What remains?
Certainly another half of the world that does not begin and end in western capitalist. But there is also and above all, the resistance of the Arab peoples to the ongoing Western military aggression, the West has already transformed the so-called state of Israel into a giant open-air military barracks, equipped with nuclear warheads and the most modern armamanenti military barracks with some civil functions (not the case in Israel's army is the main state institution, one that operates at all).
In the air acrid smell of sulfur, the sky flashes interlude thunderous roar. By now my ears are deaf from the explosion of tears and my eyes before the corpses.
I stand in front of Al Shifa hospital, Gaza's main, and we've just received terrible threat that Israel decided to bomb the new wing under construction. Would be nothing new, the hospital was bombed yesterday Wea'm. Along with a medicine warehouse in Rafah, the Islamic University (destroyed), and several mosques scattered throughout the strip. In addition to many CIVILIAN.
Apparently not finding more "sensible" targets, the air force and navy is killing targeting places of worship, schools and hospitals.
It 's a September 11 every hour, every minute, here, and tomorrow is always a new day of mourning, always the same. You notice the helicopters and planes constantly flying, you see a flash, you're already a goner, it's too late to save themselves.
No bunker bombs in the Gaza Strip, no place is safe.
I can not contact my friends in Rafah, even those who live north of Gaza City, hopefully because the phone lines are overloaded. Hopefully. They have not slept in 60 hours, like me, all gazawi.
Yesterday me and 3 other companions spent the entire night the Al Awda hospital in the refugee camp of Jabalia. We went there because we feared the much dreaded ground raid that never occurred. But Israeli tanks stationed along the border ready all along the border of the Gaza Strip, their tracks will apparently hungry bodies to a funeral march tonight.
Around 23:30 a bomb fell about 800 meters from the hospital, the shock wave sent fragments to several windows, injuring the injured. A 'ambulance arrived on the spot, they blew up a mosque, fortunately empty at that time. Unfortunately, even if not bad luck but with the criminal and terrorist to massacre civilians, the Israeli bomb also destroyed the building adjacent to the mosque, destroying it.
We've seen pulled out of the rubble the tiny bodies of six sisters. 5 are dead, one is very serious.
They laid the girls on the blackened asphalt, and they looked like broken dolls, why throw away useless. It is a mistake, but a voluntary cynical horror.
We're at 320 dead, more than a thousand wounded, according to a doctor at Shifa, 60% will die within hours in the coming days of a long agony.
Dozens are still missing, hospitals desperate women looking for husbands, sons, two days, often in vain. It 'a show gruesome morgue. A nurse told me that a Palestinian woman after hours of searching the morgue, she recognized her husband from a hand amputated. All that remained of her husband, and the wedding band on her finger from the eternal love they had promised.
of a house inhabited by two families, very little is left of their bodies. Relatives showed a half-body and three legs.
Right now one of our boats Free Gaza Movement is leaving the port of Larnaca in Cyprus. I talked to my friends on board. Heroic, have amassed medicine everywhere in the boat. It should reach the port of Gaza tomorrow around 0800 am. Provided that the port will still exist after another night of constant bombardment. I'll be in contact with them all this time.
someone stop this nightmare. To remain silent means to support the ongoing genocide. Shout out your indignation, in every capital of the "civilized" world, in every town, every square, covering our own screams of pain and terror.
There is a part of humanity that is dying in compassionate listening.
