169 YEARS before the Gaza War, Heinrich Heine wrote a premonitory poem of 12 lines, under the title "To Edom". The German-Jewish poet was talking about Germany, or perhaps all the nations of Christian Europe. This is what he wrote (in my rough translation):
"For a thousand years and more / We have had an understanding [...]

Press Release

Reports which reveal the true extent of tragedies do not reach their audiences because they are lost in the great number of articles published. To keep us updated about informative and objective coverage, but also to seize the opportunity [...]

I received a message from the photojournalist and peace activist Sameh Habeeb from Gaza while I was looking at the news in the Austrian TV, which pierced my ears with talk about the rockets which Hamas supposedly shoots at the "innocent Israeli occupation" which has jailed one and half million in Gaza since before Al-Aqsa [...]
