GAZA CITY, 16 February (IPS) - Human remains mix with debris following the latest Israeli assault Friday on Bureij camp in Gaza Strip. Early reports listed nine dead and more than 50 injured.
"This is a barbaric crime," said Dr. Hassan Khalaf, head of the local al-Shifa hospital. "They bombed residential areas where people were sleeping in their houses."
The attack apparently targeted the house of a top leader of the al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad party. The leader, Ayman al-Fayed, 42, was reported killed, along with two of his children and his wife. Other victims were from the Bureij camp.
Palestinian sources said seven houses were destroyed, and about 100 others damaged. According to hospital sources, many of the casualties were children under the age of 12, and included a baby only a few months old.

The Zionist military annually receives millions of dollars from the pockets of US taxpayers. This is but one example of how those funds are used to finance war crimes. Under the articles of the Geneva Conventions Israel is charged with the welfare of the inhabitants of territories which it occupies. There is no excuse for this, no excuse for an official policy of assassination. These are the actions of a brute regime.
End support for it. Withhold your vote from any candidate who refuses to condemn brutal criminality served up in the name of 'security for Israel' Goodwill towards Zionism should end now.
