Gaza- is the Worst Yet to Come

The attacks on Gaza bears a striking similiar to the attacks on Beirut in 1984, including the attacks on the UN facilities. This was written shortly before the attacks on the UN facility. In intelligence, one finds that they can predict the movement of an army by its modus operandi. Armies are organized and have a limited method of operations, once you know them, you can predict its moves.

In December 1982, the UN declared Sabra and Chatila an act of genocide. It was followed by bombings in synagogues Milan and Rome. To recall PLO plane hijackings. In 1983, the American Ambassador to Sudan was assassinated. The modus operandi of the IDF troop formations is almost identical to the siege of Beirut. It has been almost identical to Beirut 1982, step by step. This can potentially create new terrorist organizations if nothing is done about it.

Israel discovered oil in Gaza, George Bush is leaving office, and Israeli elections are coming up. Livni and Barak do not have their rival, Netanyhu's military experiance. The situation is reminscent of George Orwell's 1984. This is why the operation is conducted on this scale, with these particular formation with this degree of planning. Judging by the tank formations alone, it was 5 months planning, during the cease fire, and OCHA states they blockaded medicines three months before the rockets, which was also during the ceasefire.

Some could have argued in 1982 that Fatah alone was responsible for lobbing rockets from the camps, in much the same way as you did. When it withdrew, a brutal massacre of a civilians in the Sabra and Chatila camps was recorded. History repeats itself like a broken record. Here is an eye witness account of a physician, Dr. Ain Swee Lee, in From Beirut to Jerusalem,

The 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon killed over 30,000 civilians. The siege of Beirut lasted for 70 days, Beirut was subjected a relentless barrage of air, naval, and artillery bombardment. The Israeli bombardment was random and indiscriminate. Food, electricity and water supplies were cut off - over 500,000 people were driven from their homes. The IDF calculated that they had used some 960 tons of ammunition in trying to destroy the city.

This is very similar to what is going on in Gaza, food, electricity supplies are cut off, and Gazan Canadians say their families only have what is in their water-tanks. The quantity of ammunition used would be similar in estimates.

The price asked by Israel to stop the destruction of Beirut was for the 14,000 PLO fighters to abandon the city - leaving behind their families. The US brokered peace deal guaranteed the safety of the Palestinians left behind in the camps - a multinational peacekeeping force would be deployed to protect them.

She describes what happened, three weeks later as the US didn’t honor its obligations
[15:00] Gaza Hospital was protected by the International Red Cross, despite that Gaza Hospital has been bombed – it was 11 floors high and the top 2 floors were blown off, the doctors quarters were shelled.

At 4:30pm news arrived at the Gaza Hospital that Israeli troops had invaded Akka Hospital [just outside the camp], nurses had been raped and killed, doctors and patients shot dead. (p. 55, 79) from the book” From Beirut To Jerusalem”

Shortly thereafter, the following occurred as journalist Robert Fisk described it in, Pity the Nation,

Bill Foley of AP(Associated Press) had come with us. All he could say as he walked round was "Jesus Christ" over and over again. We might have accepted evidence of a few murders; even dozens of bodies, killed in the heat of combat. But there were women lying in houses with their skirts torn up to their waists and their legs wide apart, children with their throats cut, rows of young men shot in the back after being lined up at an execution wall. There were babies - blackened babies because they had been slaughtered more than 24-hours earlier and their small bodies were already in a state of decomposition - tossed into rubbish heaps alongside discarded US army ration tins, Israeli army equipment and empty bottles of whiskey.

Where were the murderers? Or to use the Israelis' vocabulary, where were the "terrorists"? Down a laneway to our right, no more than 50 yards from the entrance, there lay a pile of corpses. There were more than a dozen of them, young men whose arms and legs had been wrapped around each other in the agony of death. One had been castrated, his trousers torn open and a settlement of flies throbbing over his torn intestines. The eyes of these young men were all open. The youngest was only 12 or 13 years old… Someone had slit open the woman's stomach, cutting sideways and then upwards, perhaps trying to kill her unborn child. Her eyes were wide open, her dark face frozen in horror.
