Two things are certain about the cease fire between Israel and Gaza’s Palestinians. First, it is tentative at best and second, the media won’t let the truth out.
One of the biggest issues continually presented was the supposed excessive force used by Israel resulting in large amounts of civilian dead and wounded.
Of course, the same media failed to report that the huge weapons caches were buried under schools and hospitals thus with any direct hit the ensuing explosions would be obviously enormous.
Another factor to consider is that Hamas terrorists had wired houses with explosives that would be set off by Israeli troops and tanks and the detonation of these devices was catastrophic not just to human beings but to physical structures as well.
Finally, prior to the Hamas overthrow of the Abbas government in Gaza the poor peasants stood in line for hours to donate their pauper’s wages to Hamas to aid in the destruction of Israel.
The old cliché says “A picture is worth a thousand words” however, when it comes to Israel it all depends on who is developing the film! Realistically the Hamas attempt to bring Israel into a war brought abut many casualties and peace is definitely not in their agenda.
