Different Perspectives
Interesting days in the Gaza strip, in that religeous fanatics have flocked to the scene, and a bit of me is glad to see their frustration. I feel like this is some restitution for the Palestinians who have lost their homes. The ordinary settlers have my sympathy though, they were told by the fanatics that the land was theirs, learning that it wasn't must have been a bitter pill.
"Just a few yards outside Kfar Darom, dozens of Palestinians stood on the roofs of their houses watching the evacuation.
``For the first time in the last few years I'm standing here without any fear that Israelis will shoot at me because their battle today is against themselves,'' said Mohammed Bashir, a Palestinian farmer."
Long may he continue to stand there.
