"'Gaza became a kind of free fire zone for the Israelis,' said Fred Abrahams, senior emergencies researcher for Human Rights Watch."* * --- SOURCE: LOS ANGELES TIMES -- "A BATTLE OVER WHAT HAPPENED IN GAZA," 1/23/09* *If you think Israel should be able to shoot ambulance workers, block humanitarian aid, target civilian homes, and use white phosphorus as an antipersonnel weapon to burn off the flesh of women and children ... go ahead and click "delete."* *Or ... you can help stop the whitewash. Hold Israel accountable for war crimes. ** DEMAND AN IMMEDIATE CRIMINAL TRIBUNAL: http://www.petitiononline.com/sr8c1952/petition.html Then FORWARD THIS MESSAGE.* Yusuf Toropov yusuf.toro...@gmail.com
