palestine burns while the media fawn,


palestine burns while the media fawn,

please ring the bbc and particulalry ITV news which has been much worse than the bbc and tell them what is happening, why are they not getting the info that palestine indymedia is giving us, why will they not see it as a credible source.
Jenin - Briefings ---

Several heavy shielded bulldozers of the army digging a wide road 8 - 10 m wide from west to east ..to cut off the camp into two halves.

This is done also with air bombings , hundreds of bombs, from 2 - 7 Cobra and Apatchi helicopters,,each raid…it is still continuing from around 20.00 last night…till now.

The soldiers sometimes withdraw for the helicopters to do the strikes ..this came after the helicopters bombarded a house where soldiers were inside on the assumption that they were Palestinians…the shooting and the bombing is severe and directed towards the houses with much brutality.

More than one third of the camp houses have been destroyed…total destruction….tens of people died in this way.

Health sources from inside the camp.., with witnesses say that dead bodies still in the streets and narrow roads of the camp from 100 - 150.

This the fifth day that ambulances can’t reach to save the injured or the corps….all health workers and representatives are issuing SOS for help through the media..directly..till now no result……on the ground.

In the past 36 hours..only 2 corps and one injured were received by the hospital……this is a proof that what is going as the people there see another bigger intentional massacre than sabra and shatila……

Health situation and living is so much to a degree that people are now drinking from the sewage and eating leaves of trees.

We got now from a witness that hundreds of bodies are under rubles of the houses..the people who saved themselves are gathered in the university.

Families of Shalabi had suffered ..where one soldier killed the son of 34 yrs..then the other soldier exchanged and killed the father of 62 yrs in front of the sons and grandsons..as they want to repeat the experience of deir yasin so that people will flee…but this made the people more firmed of not leaving.

And in the event another two old men -more than 64 yrs-. And one 45 yrs were also shot in front of their families..they are from the families of Sa’adi and Zare’ni.

Doctors said that they were shot at intentionally ..so as to kill as many people ..as the orders of the criminal Sharon.

In these days it is not fair for the victims to make analysis..and if some politicians reading these lines wouldn’t understand what mentality is behind these atrocities…….. then ….humanity and conscious is lost.

April 09, 2002: More than one third of the camp houses have been destroyed…total destruction….tens of people died in this way. details

April 08, 2002: The tanks are shooting at people in the street, including those already injured and dead. Israeli forces are still banning ambulances from entering Jenin refugee camp. There are no confirmations yet of how many people are dead or injured, as our source was calling from a mobile phone within the camp. There is a very real possibility that massacres are taking place. People are saying we "will not become refugees again". Calls received by LAW (The Palestinian Society for the Protection of Human Rights and the Environment) confirm that throughout yesterday and day, the smell of dead bodies is spreading across the refugee camp. Each minute an injured dies due to the lack of medical attention. Sources confirmed that, since the past 24 hours, the refugee camp has run out of key supplies, including water, food and medical supplies. Sources from the refugee camp have stated that despite calls they have been forced to drink waste water. Quite apart from the food and water crisis, sources, including Jenin hospital, confirmed that the camp suffers a health crisis. The director of the hospital stated that the capacity of Jenin hospital has been crippled due to the destruction of a number of its services and the continuation of Israeli shelling. Israel is committing an ongoing massacre in Jenin.
