this is what self defence looks like

today 60 lebanese civilians have already been killed. civilians trying
to escape from their homes throughout south lebanon are targeted.
trucks with food, aid and rescue convoys are bombed.



the state of israel feels complete freedom in carrying out one massacre
after another because this zionist occupation force is confident that
it has the support of the arab and international regimes especially
those preoccupied with spreading democracy. and the corporate mass
media is doing a brilliant job in legitimizing Israeli monstrous
attacks by providing an absurdly distorted coverage. thereby, if
murdered lebanese children, and the charred dismembered bodies of the
over 300 civilians killed in lebanon since last wednesday, are nowhere
to be seen or heard of in the news, their deaths might have as well not
taken place. when will this terrorist state be stopped? How many more
massacres will it take? How much more military, financial and political
support will it keep receiving? When will we realize that this is not
an unfortunate situation the palestinian or lebanese people are going
through, and that what is happening does have an impact beyond the
computer or television sceen. When will we see that we are all
accountable for this injustice?

the violence is not just in the images we see in the media, or rather
their abscence. the violence is also in the way this distorted coverage
and massacres distort our very being. it is our own humanity at stake.
Don?t just feel sorry for the lebanese and palestinians being
self-rightiously killed, bombed and devastated. do something for
yourself.
