Demolitions

This is footage of the Israelis demolishing Palestinian houses. The distress of the families as they climb on the roof in an attempt to prevent the destruction of their property by the IDF, property that is not in Israel, is simply shocking.

Why are one people allowed to treat another with such disdain? Why do Americans finance this type of behaviour and then remain so disinterested to what is being carried out in their names?

Thanks for the video.
I really still have to post on Mograbi's documentary 'Avenge but one of my two eyes', a fierce critic of Israel's policies toward Palestinians. I will probably do it during Christmas time. I will not be posting for the next two weeks and half because I will be in Cuba and will post some articles on this country during the new year holidays.

To return to the subject of this video, I would say that Palestinians are the most resilient people I have ever known of...

Sophia,

I share your views on the resilience of the Palestinian people. No-one should have to put up with such treatment.

Have a wonderful holiday. I look forward to reading about your observations of Cuba!
