WE, a group of senior journalists, demand that the atrocities perpetrated by the Israeli military in Gaza stop immediately. The intensifying assault on Gaza is beyond the pale of humanity. It is an act of aggression and a pompous show of strength on the part of the Israeli military, perpetrated on an innocent populace.
The bombardment of homes, offices and infrastructure has caused unimaginable misery in the Palestinian state. The attacks have killed at least 122 people, including 31 children, and injured at least 900 others. The civilian casualties are horrendous.
