Cheery stuff.
I'm glad I'm spending the day in bed, where it's safe.

Date: 2009-01-06 09:10 pm (UTC)It's such an extremely emotive subject and the things that are being done to the Palestinians at the moment are so utterly horrific that I regularly find it pretty much impossible to form any kind of coherent statements, or anything really beyond 'a... a fucking school'. Still though - thankfully, more eloquent people exist and dunno, you might possibly find some of these interesting:

Consider my confusion cleared up :->
