Background of the writer in detail
Bereaved and traumaized Palestinian children need psychotherapists and special care! Who will take care of them?
I just wonder! The local psychotherapy organizations cannot do it for more than one reason.
This is not the right place to discuss those reasons actually.
Children still have bad memories; they still tell about ugly nights, nightmares and bad dreams.
It looks like an ongoing show of miseries, untold stories, stress and depression!
In the middle of that, the day before yesterday renewed momories from bad days when it was rumored that PFLP launched two rockets at Israel and the Israelis will hit back.
Many governmental buildings including the main post office, and many schools in Gaza city were evacuated immediately!
Pupiles ran out of their schools k! nowning not where to go as their school buses were not available ;
it was not the time to leave school! Many foreign media reporters left Gaza immediately for fear of any new consequences or complications!
Yesterday, an American made F16 bomber-fighter flew overheads, then in a false rid, it broke the sound barrier causing a terrible sound!
It scared everyone in the city as we thought it a blast somewhere!
The Israeli are stil keeping up with the horror scene regardless of evrything else!
Then, the world community talks seriously about arms smuggling to Gaza! What kind of arms is being smuggled into Gaza.
The invasion proved practically speaking that the Palesininas do not have weapons that can annoy the Israeli aricrafts and helicopters of any kind.
They flew and raided without any anti-aricraft fire!
Their tanks guarded their military army buldlozers that destroyed 60% of the green fields in Gaza,
and it protected it when demolished Palestinian homes in Ezbet Abedrabo! in Jabalia and Atatra to the far north of Gaza city!
Those foreg in meida reporters who arrived at the scene could not beleive their eyes as the whole geography of the place has totally changes.
Even the psychology of the people has totally changed. It was like an earthquake hit that place, and what?
It was all civilian homes!
Thousands have turned to be displaced living either in UNRWA schools or stiking with their extended families elswehere away from their what used to be their homes!
The fact of the matter is that words stand short from describing what it looks like now!
It was more horrible that the Holocaust! I did not know before that 450 infant and child were Hamas affiliates or supporters!
Take care
