Relato de um fotógrafo alemão que esteve na Palestina e viu os dois lados da moeda: GAZA: The WRETCHED of the Earth as promised more pictures from Gaza. Please dont forget Gaza! Especially now that Netanyahus ground troops to break Gaza permanently. Physically and psychologically. Using tanks against the donkey carts, the tunnel Builder! It is absurd. Netanyahu really knows what hes doing? Does he have a strategy intended to end? Or he is a prisoner of his own domestic political fear-mongering? Im no friend of Hamas. And it never will be. I criticize the ideology and the military strategy Hamas forcefully. But I am a friend of the Palestinians. I refuse to watch silently as transferred their rights and their dignity trampled. Of course, Israel has the right to defend themselves. Against the senseless shooting of Hamas and other resistance groups. Among other things by the perfect air defence iron dome. But Israel has no right to make hundreds of homes destroyed, wipe out entire families, bomb disabled homes, kill children playing on the beach and on roofs with missiles and blow up Beach cafes in the air, in which young people wanted to look at the World Cup. Gaza is hell on Earth. Netanyahu has announced he will substantially weaken Hamas. But he weakens or destroys not Hamas, but Gaza and its people. The bomb massacre in Gaza under international law are war crimes. No self defense. You should not collectively punish a people. A law student learns that in the first semesters. On Thursday, we were in the Israeli Askhelon. One of the three main target of Palestinian rockets. The most severe material damage Askhelon suffered according to Jewish citizens during the war, was the destruction of a garden sauna. Of course we visited them. I see and listen to both sides. Elsewhere in Israel there was also heavier damage. Only a minimum percentage of the rockets from Gaza largely self-made penetrates the iron dome, the sensational missile defense of Israel. Netanyahu knows that well. But for domestic political reasons, it creates an almost grotesque fear psychosis still in their own country. Until noon today, Sunday 12:00 Palestinian time, Israeli missiles killed 404 Palestinians and wounded at least 2815. The number rises and rises. 75 percent are innocent civilians. The rocket Hamas killed 2 Israelis and injured 7. More 4 Israelis have died since the Israeli ground offensive. Who still equates high military security for Israel with the dramatic situation of danger and the endless suffering of Gaza, deceiving world public opinion. In Gaza, there is a war, not in Israel. Everything else is propaganda. Must international politics not finally respond to the sky crying injustice in Gaza? We need not UN sanctions against Israel as was once against South Africa and today Russia? Finally, not I, but John Kerry spoke of an apartheid State. Can you even ask such questions? Still applies the principle of Equal rights for all? If it not wiser, Netanyahu would finally negotiate on par with Hamas? Are three internecine wars in Gaza in six years not enough? It is obvious that to resolve the Gaza conflict not by mutual rocket fire and the locking up of 1.8 million Palestinians. Or should the leaders of both sides not just once somewhere meet and mutually massacre, rather than to torture the people of Gaza? In thousands of years you will tell the story of the prisoners are from Gaza. This humiliated and disenfranchised small people, which was held by a neighbouring Lord people in a large cage. Which the Lord people the electricity turned off, when it pleased him. It will report that the people of Gaza began to dig tunnels in neighbouring countries sometimes for a few days or hours of freedom to taste like moles. Not always as subhuman to live, they went underground. What a paradox! Of course, they dug the tunnel in the first place not to abandon goods and medicines. And to be able to defend themselves. To do so, or as if. Man amazed posterity will report that none of the world leaders of the time, who constantly talked about human rights, yelped, protested, intervened. That no one wept with the people of Gaza. With the mothers, whose children bombed to death in her arms died. Forever you will talk about the shame of Gaza. About the condescending, disrespectful oppression and humiliation of its population by the neighbors of Israel. About the failure of the international community given their treatment as third-class people. Jean Paul Sartre would say as Prosimians. When I think of Gaza, I am ashamed for the lack of action our world. Also for my own helplessness. We deny all. Since yesterday, we are back in Germany. Every day I get emails when I am asked how long I had it still the chutzpah, to contradict the public opinion of the West. My answer is: I find life too short to constantly about the truth. Also death threats come each day. We stopped to count them. Every minute I think of the people in Gaza, to the wretched of the Earth. Preferably, I would go right back to them. Your JT
