Some lucky survivors of the Samouni clan in Gaza testify against Israel's horrific attacks on civilians.
Israel is barring foreign journalists from Gaza so it is difficult to verify completely the survivors' accounts about an incident that left up to 70 civilians dead.
They contain allegations that Israeli forces shelled a building where they had previously put a large number of civilians, killed a child in cold blood, used human shields and failed to provide proper treatment to survivors.
Even though they were nearby, Israeli soldiers were found not to have taken action to help four children who spent 48 hours clinging to what the ambulance crew believed to be their mothers' corpses.
There is no way any rational person could view these attacks as anything but a war of aggression resulting in the indiscriminate murder of innocent Gazan civilians. These are war crimes. Period.
Via the LRC blog, Ron Paul explains why a pro-Israel war resolution is a mistake:
- "...the weapons being used to kill so many Palestinians are American weapons."
- "If you look at the history you'll find out that Hamas was encouraged and really started by Israel because they wanted Hamas to counteract Yasser Arafat."
