I thought I wouldn't have anything to say, all what I saw on TV left me speechless... corpses being pulled out from under mounds of rubble,and that little girl, she looked as if she was a sleep... she looked so peaceful, even with all that dust on her face, and that girl who said that she lost her whole family, except her cousin, father and brother... I wondered how she was able to sustain herself, stand there and talk about it. I kept wondering till she burst out crying, now that will scar! That will definitly scar!
Then they moved on to that family in a hospital, who lost their daughter, Zainab, and were hiding the news of her death from her brother, who could sense that in their chocked voices as they spoke to him...
And that Condoleezza Rice finally found the "adequate circumistances" she was talkign about for the cease fire... Now why didn't you say that u were waiting for such a massacre to encourage a cease fire!
You know it's really harsh to see the pictures of people murdered in Qana then see Condoleezza Rice sitting with Israeli officials, laughing around a table with all kinds of refereshments and accommodations... Then here them blaming Hizbullah and saying that they are "sorry" for what happened in Qana! Olmert would even be rather insolent by blaming the victims of Qana for what happened to them! Believe it or npt, he said they should've evacuated the houses so that Israel would strike them! Yeah Olmert, blame it on the dead! They don't speak... No, we are the dead, not them! Because we are the ones who can talk, and as long as we don't speak or act, we are dead!
You try to think of of those kids, their dreams, their stolen laughters, the joy in their hearts that was replaced with terror in the last minutes of their lives...For a moment I think that all that would be a curse over the murderers, forever... and nothing of that, not a tear, not a drop of blood would go in vain...
I thing the best thing to say now is:
بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

You presented many valid and important points Karin, those people really couldn't flee their homes... And remember the first massacre in Qana in 1996, people actually fled their homes, nonetheless, they were killed!
Written in Arabic are Qur'anic verses, I cna't translate them but I can tell you what they are talking about in general. The first one talks about martyrs, and that they are not dead, they are alive, in a place much more superior to this mortal world. The second says, I mean its meaning, is that God sees everything, and that tyrants won't get away with their tyranny

I second your thoughts Ola .. one by one!! I was thinking of these children who had not even really started LIFE yet ... and were killed bypeople who don't value it, who bomb indiscriminately KNOWING there were people. NOBODY should come and tell me they didn't - they have drones EVERYWHERE! They should have fled?? HOW? WHERE TO? Previously they bombed and destroyed ALL the roads so that NOBODY could drive them anymore - and afterwards they threw leaflets telling people to get out!! What a blasphemy!! Besides .. these people were afraid to get ANYwhere - convoys and ambulances were bombed - on top, they were very poor. It is a terrible, terrible tragedy!!
I am at a loss for words ... something which happens very rarely to me.
What is written in Arabic? Could you please translate it?
