The Coming Massacre in the Gaza Strip

The Israeli military is currently threatening a major offensive into the Gaza Strip. Ariel Sharon claims the mobilization of military troops and armor on the outskirts of Gaza is necessary in response to continued Palestinian mortar and rocket fire into the soon to be evacuated settlement areas. Despite the 'defensive rationale' for the mobilization, the Palestinian attacks have not been un-provoked as the Israeli army have recently resumed targeted assassinations within the Palestinian territories.

Now that the Israeli military seems to be on the brink of a massive invasion of the Gaza Strip, "A Warning from Israel" is provided here by Uri Davis, Ilan Pappe, and Tamar Yaron who claim that, as history being a guide, the result of this offensive will be the intentional mass killing of Palestinians.......an offensive necessitated through intentional provocation of the Palestinian people.
