"UT"? I take it that's "uncomfortable truth"?
There was a piece on Channel 4 News last night about 2 volunteer Norwegian doctors who had managed to get into Gaza before the closing of the border to help at the main hospital. They were shown consoling the family of a 14 yr old boy whose brain had been almost liquified by the nearby explosion of an air-burst munition, and who they were unable to save. The doctors were working 24 hours a day in atrocious conditions, with frequent energy black-outs and a chronic shortage of basic equipment.
It kind of puts into perspective the posturing by the various right-wing Israeli apologists posting on this thread.
