So I have not updated since Israel's invasion of Gaza on December 27th, 2008. I remember hopping on Al Jazeera, seeing the headline and was at a loss for words, to put it simple. Over the course of the 23 days (I think...) over 1,200 people were killed, over a third of them being women and children. Read Al Jazeera to find out facts, but also check other sources because balance is needed.
An old song for the struggle.
