Yishai, an Israeli reservist, occupied a Palestinian home in Gaza during the recent assault. The family had fled. He saw that they had a computer and were privileged. He felt he could explain it all to them, and left them a letter. It's on Camera's blog. It includes this:
As soon as you agree with me that Hamas is your enemy and because of them, your people are miserable, you will also understand that the change must come from within. I am acutely aware of the fact that what I say is easier to write than to do, but I do not see any other way. You, who are connected to the world and concerned about your children's education, must lead, together with your friends, a civil uprising against Hamas.
Imagine someone occupying your house and killing hundreds of children and then leaving you this note. Would you take the teaching? Or as the Iraqis said when we invaded and destroyed a country: Is this how democracy works? (Phil Weiss)
