THE slaughter of men, women and children in Gaza by the Israeli military is nothing short of disgusting and shameful.
Whatever your politics are, at the end of the day the Palestinian people have little in the way of arms to defend themselves, whilst the Israeli army is armed to the teeth with the best high-tech, modern weaponry supplied by the US.
Perhaps if the Palestinian people had oil flowing underneath their lands then maybe the UN and others would step in to protect them, but since they don’t have anything that the US wants to appropriate or steal, they are simply left to defend themselves against the might of the Israeli army.
