WHY ECHOES ARE SO SAD
it's so sad to return to the old themes but sometimes, if nothing has changed, you just have to say it again until someone listens, y'know?
today i listened to nicky campbell on radio five live and he was talking about the layers of truth in the palestine and israel area that made having an opinion so difficult.
well i'm sorry nicky, but an f16 firing a rocket into a house and killing 15 people - the news says 8 of them children - isn't about "layers of truth".
it strikes me as being about state-sponsored, hi-tech murder. and, mr campbell, it's the state-sponsored bit that probably makes the difference.
the pilot in that f16 wasn't a suicide bomber who had been "brainwashed" into giving his life for allah. he is a professional, trained, state-employed person who operates a multi-million pound people-killing machine.
tonight that pilot will not be in paradise with his god, he will be in his home with his family eating his tea. he was only carrying out the orders of his government, which is led by mr ariel sharon.
and so i say again, when oh when is someone going to arrest ariel sharon for murdering palestinians?
so why is there no link for this story? because i was going to link to a bbc news story but the headline said: "Israel kills Hamas leader". the second paragraph said "at least 15 people killed, including eight children".
the 11th paragraph said "about 140 people were injured in the attack".
dear mr greg dyke, here's how the story should have been written:
Israeli jet kills 15
Eight children are among 15 people killed in an Israeli jet-launched missile attack in Gaza City.
140 people are injured and more are believed to be buried in the rubble.
