Two videos worth watching: (1) to understand the origin of the infamous "weapons" tunnels and the reasons for their use, and (2) to witness the pain of a mother. Be warned, the second video is heartrending.

that's germane to your recent post on suicide (specifically toward the

Weiss comment: That last clip is a report by Mike Hanna of Al-Jazeera, a bravura piece of reporting that recalls Edgar R. Murrow. "Never, never has such wanton destruction been caused." He stands in the ruins in Gaza City, and interviews an incredibly-sympathetic Palestinian teacher wearing a jacket in the ruins of his house and saying in perfect English that Israel has destroyed the idea he had come to accept, of getting a state on 20 percent of the Palestinians' ancestral lands.
