And she just keeps doing bad stuff, cos she doesn't want to end up like the bottom b1tch, so she keeps getting whipped with the wire coat hanger every couple weeks and she'll deal with it. The bottom b1tch in the West Bank is just all cut to pieces but she's not fighting like the bad girl. She's getting fucked day in day out with new settlement plans that contravene UN regulations made back in the 60s. she don't mind taking it up the ass but the bad girl in Gaza won't take it up the ass, she'll take the punishment.

To her thats part of the job and the land is like the crack. And she ain't gonna leave the crack, cos its the most important thing in her life.

Again this is a very simplistic depiction of what is happening in Israel and Palestine. I've said time and time again that in a conflict this complicated it's unreasonable to just pick sides. Of course this means that people who have picked one side accuse me of having picked the other. I haven't.

EDIT - Just looking around for news reports of the medical building bombing - the only source appears to be a youtube video. Even an article in the Palestine Telegraph only references this video. There's nothing on Al Jazeera, nothing on BBC, nothing on the Guardian... All that I can find is a video on youtube and a bunch of sites that reference this video.

Furthermore the video on Youtube says that this bombing occurred on Feb 9th and yet the video itself was posted on Feb 8th.

Diggin a little deeper there is a news story about a plastics factory being bombed... No info about medical supplies.

Just another point - the video was shot with Ken O'Keefe, an anti-Israeli activist.

Oh and the airstrikes from last night are all covered by major news agencies.

a) The report doesn't say what targets were hit so the medicl supply building story is more likely tru as it is an eyewitness account from the ground and b) the BBC report was posted at 10 am GMT after the first air strikes.

The later raid, reported live from the tweets on here is not mentioned in this report.

Anti-Israeli? When they beat you like this for carrying humanotarian aid you might not like that government:

What's so ironic about the whole situation is that Jews and Arabs are genetically linked. They're practically cousins.
