Thank you Phil for sharing these. That 1st one just tears at my heart. I have been talking about that all day. The scope of the attack is just wrong. To me it is like David and Goliath but this time Goliath is winning. Just not equitable at all.
This reader would appreciate the addition of a third YouTube video, of an Israeli family terrorized by Hamas rockets. I would find all three videos hard to watch.
The situation is so polarized, it is hard to imagine any neutral authority being recognized equally by both sides, Military victory is most likely to be the means of resolution.
In honesty, I admire Israel, but I too cannot escape the remembrance of the Warsaw Ghetto and its inescapeable similarity to the Gaza of the present, right down to the tunnels. I do not know what to say.
I've been looking for a video that would do what you hope to illustrate, but i haven't found it.
I did find a disturbing YouTube of a guy selling beer and ice cream to Israeli settlers sitting in lawn chairs on a hill overlooking the Gaza bombings, as wettlers atched and cheered, but I thought it was utterly tasteless.
Phil - well, I try to keep the Jerusalem Post within my reading, as well as the BBC and Al Jazeera English. It is a struggle to find balance. There are a couple of videos of Hamas rocket results on JPost, as you see fit.
My daughter and I had a chance to listen to Hannah Ashrawi a few years back when she spoke at Colorado College. I was looking forward to hearing her speak, but found her in person to be full of unconvincing invective and propaganda. I don't know - perhaps we caught her on a bad day, or expected more understanding than is possible from someone coming from a 40-year warzone.
It is hard to know how to approach the problem in a way that leads to a just solution. How many U.S. diplomats have floundered around on Israel and the Palestinians?

希望大家都會非常非常幸福~
「朵朵小語‧優美的眷戀在這個世界上，最重要的一件事，就是好好愛自己。好好愛自己，你的眼睛才能看見天空的美麗，耳朵才能聽見山水的清音。好好愛自己，你才能體會所有美好的東西，所有的文字與音符才能像清泉一樣注入你的心靈。好好愛自己，你才有愛人的能力，也才有讓別人愛上你的魅力。而愛自己的第一步，就是切斷讓自己覺得黏膩的過去，以無沾無滯的輕快心情，大步走向前去。愛自己的第二步，則是隨時保持孩子般的好奇，願意接受未知的指引；也隨時可以拋卻不再需要的行囊，一路雲淡風輕。親愛的，你是天地之間獨一無二的旅人，在陽光與月光的交替之中瀟灑獨行.............................................................................................................有時，你覺得痛。胃痛的時候，接受它，承認這個疼痛是你的身體的一部份，與它和平共處。心痛的時候，接受它，承認這個經驗是你的生命的一部份，與它和平共處。抗拒痛的存在，只會讓它更要證明它的存在，於是你就更痛。所以，.無論你有多麼不喜歡痛的感覺，還是要接納這個痛的事實。與你的痛站在同一邊，不逃避，不閃躲，不再與你的痛爭執，如此，你的痛才會漸漸不再胡鬧，才會乖乖平息下去。.................心願-你許下了一個心願，你閉上眼睛，在冥想之中把這個心願交託宙給宇整個讓宇宙推動它全部的力.量去執行.，你看見星球與星球的引力牽繫著彼此，你聽見虛空與虛空.唱裡著和妙美的聲音，為了你的心願，整個宇宙正在相互傳遞，然後你放下了心願，不僅是放下，最好你還把你的心願忘記，唯有如此，它才能脫離你，發展它自己，
當它在宇宙的遊歷結束之後，它自然會來到你身邊，以你曾經希望的方式回應你，許下，只是讓它發生，放下，才是讓>它實現，你的心願使你懂得不能執著的奧秘...................
