The reports of a girl from Gaza

I can't really avoid those kind of articles, no matter how heartbreaking they are, because the intense human suffering in the Palestine side is enormous and undeniable . They are the victims of the Hamas, as much as us, and most of them are utterly helpless to do anything about it.

Ynet is somewhat more leaning toward the Right than Haareth, but they do not ignore, in this conflict, the humanitarian crises in the Palestine side.And this morning I found an article about a remarkable girl:

http://www.ynet.co.il/articles/0,7340,L-4552179,00.html

She is only 16, she is living right near the Shifa hospital, and she is seeing it all live. And she is sharing her experience with the world. And despite what I know and understand about the conflict, my heart breaks too, at the sheer human suffering.

(The one thing I can’t stand, can’t shut up to, is when I hear some idiot Israeli yelling at me ; “so, you pity the Palestine children? Why? The more dead, the better. What are you, a traitor?” (yes, it’s a quote, yes, from a few days ago, yes, it could have ended with bodily injuries, if the bus did not come on time. I am fucking series. And I learned my lesson from it, too. Next time, I will draw away before that kind of a person will complete his sentence.

THE WORST

This has been hovering for a long time now.

And you know what is the worst part? that I feel like I need to apologize! apologize for caring! apologize for not writing hate filled comments at all those articles that bring the Palestine side. That I don't do ahead and cheer "yeah, so 10 are dead, want more!"

Well, I do not. I am an Israeli, a Patriot, and a proud one. I adore my country, while being well aware of its numerous short comes. I acknowledge freely that both sides here have its Crazies, and that ours are in no way any more or less crazy than the other side. I agree that My People come first, I agree that if rockets and bombes are lunched from among civilian population, there is no choice but to fire back, in order or protect our civilian population. But. That does not mean I can't hurt when I read about dead and wounded children, see broken bodies of kids, think and imagine the mental wounds. There is no contradiction between complete loyalty to my country and empathy for the human suffering of the other side. And if that makes me a traitor...so be it.
