The Gaza Apocalypse

The stench of death permeates the air, filled with sound of bomb explosions and occasional siren of ambulances; the Israeli flyers ordering mass evacuation litter the ground; they are good for a poor writer's research notes, on the limits of human barbarism. The right-wing Jews now talk of settlers' return, and the mask has fallen. Soon the apocalypse will be replaced by a new Gaza, bereft of any Palestinian traces, sufficient cause to continue the mayhem without a pause.
