Street Blitz London, 1-15 May 2008

29-04-2008 10:56

Israeli Attack Kills Palestinian Mother, 4 Children

29-04-2008 00:10

Psychopaths always blame their victims

I mean, if an Israeli family was killed we’d be hearing about it non-stop; but this was just a Palestinian mother and her four little children. Just some collateral damage…
