>There is a picture in the current issue of Newsweek (U.S. weekly news magazine) that really bothered me. It is of a Lebanese child lying dead in some godforsaken rubble. The victim could have been a young Israeli kid and it would have hit me exactly the same way. These poor kids don't have any say in the matter, they were just born into age-old hatreds that never end. He or she (it isn't even clear which from the picture) should be discovering life, full of childlike wonder, not barefoot and face down in the dirt.

I saw a picture today in our one of newspaper; an israeli child writing some derisive lovely messages to Lebanese children on an Israel bomb. Saddly what did told her so that child can write messages like that?
