Pillar of Defense Update
Happy Tuesday beautiful people.
Some updates on the Pillar:
- There are growing voices in Israel to end the violence. Rabbi Dr Ron Kronis, director of the Inter-religious Coordinating Council in Israel, believes a cease fire can be reached very soon (Published 5:23 AM, EST). [Times of Israel]
- Clinton is on her way to Israel to figure that out. (& Ban Ki-Moon) [Politico]
- 120 trucks of goods were ready to enter Gaza from Israel today. Hamas fired rockets at the crossing. Only 24 entered. Crossing is closed. [IDF]
- A 4 year old Palestinian boy was killed in an explosion. The media has failed to mention that the blast was caused by a Palestinian rocket. [Honest Reporting]
- Brash but honest reflection on the language used during this conflict. “How to Support Israel Without Being a Racist” - very good read. [This Is Not Jewish tumblr]
- Anonymous’ crusade against Israel is “less a war than the hacker equivalent of egging someone’s house and then smoking weed behind a Denny’s.” [Gizmodo]
- What it’s like to live in Ashkelon. [NYT]
