(DV) Shapira: We Refuse to Take Part in the Occupation. Read his chilling analysis.
The Dove watched Israeli pilots bomb Ain-el-Helweh refugee camp when she was 12. There was no way for the pilots to know who they killed. In those days, when the Dove talked about it back in America with her Jewish American friends, they repeated what their parents told them: "Palestinian terrorists hide in the skirts of their women."
The pilot Yonathan Shapira: "The fact that buses explode here, does not justify Sharon, Mofaz and Air Force Chief Dan Halutz decision to ‘unintentionally’ kill nine children in their sleep, and to sow terror in a population of millions who live under a reign of closures, curfews and checkpoints. A population enclosed by walls and camps, under the guns of an enormous and frightening army, equipped to the teeth with jet-planes which shake the skies, and attack-helicopters who time and again send rockets into cars and into the windows of houses, in crowded and destitute cities.
It's a sign of hope when IDF pilots can speak like this.
