Why do they hate the West so much, we will ask

By: Robert Fisk January 7, 2009

The writer is expressing his sympathy with the latest massacre in the history when Israel killed forty civilian refugees in a United Nation School and if George Bush had supported an immediate ceasefire earlier, those forty civilian would be alive. If we reviewed Israel history we will not surprised.

For sure we all still remember the invasion of Lebanon in 1982 and the 17,500 dead, most of them were children and women; Sabra-Chatila massacre when Israel killed 1700 Palestinian civilian; Qana massacre when 106 Lebanese refugees most of them were children at UN base in 1996; the massacre of Marahin refugees and bombardment of 1000 civilian during 1996 invasion. What happened was not only shameful but also a disgrace and a war crime.

Many of the West leaders, presidents, prime ministers, and journalists will keep lie; that Israel is avoiding killing civilians, Israeli deserve security and Hamas broke the truce.

In fact, Israel broke it first, on November 4th and 17th when six and four Palestinians were killed respectively.
Twenty Israeli dead in 10 years while 600 Palestinian dead in a week and the west will keep asking, why they hate us? But for sure they know the answer.
