Watch the video, it's great.

This video serves as a reminder that not all Israelis condone and support what their country does.

"But the killing by Israeli shelling of three daughters of a Palestinian doctor, whose reports from Gaza were a fixture on Israeli TV during the conflict, has led some commentators to start asking if there were excesses, even if the bulk of the nation feels that whatever was done was justified. "This picture, a bereaved and brokenhearted Palestinian father, three dead girls... for me, this was the picture of defeat of this war," wrote Boaz Gaon in Ma'ariv, referring to the doctor, Abu el-Ayash."

Yup, I heard about that.
There is some good left in people..

"The funerals of Abu Al-Aish's daughters Bisam (20), a business administration student, Mayer (15), Aya (13) and the niece Nour (14) were held in Gaza Saturday, but the doctor, who is tending to his injured daughter Shada (18), could not attend."

And the sad thing is, this is just one of the stories we've heard of... There are so many untold stories..
