ME Violence
A brutal little story I first heard on alJazeera. At first I didn’t believe it, but the story was picked up by the Jerusalem Post: IDF Chief of Staff Halutz ordered that 10 buildings be leveled in Beirut for every rocket attack on Haifa.
Have I not spoken of Israel’s conscious, cold-blooded calculation to inflict several times the injury they suffer in loss of life and destruction of infrastructure on the civilians of their neighbors? Have I not?
Israel continues its destruction in the West Bank and Gaza: as dozens have died during the period of Israel’s Lebanon offensive Israel has also arrested half of the government of the Palestinian Authority and destroyed many of Palestine’s government buildings, including the foreign ministry in Gaza and nearly every government building in Nablus.
