Hamas Gaza Nakba

An image is a crystallized appearance with which to assess a phrase. Next to these kinds of photographs coming out of Gaza, I don’t understand this claim by Hamas political bureau leader Ismail Haniyeh that, “the image of destruction seen by the world is the proof to the extent of the IDF’s defeat and its failure in fighting the brave resistance.” There’s nothing here for anyone to crown about.

    Wrong my friend. A perfect portrait of Hamas’s enemy has been painted in twisted steal, desolate remains, bones and blood. A glorious mirror to hold up to Israel for all the world to see. Such is the logic of this conflict where the prize is victimhood.
