Channel 4 Johnathan Miller Report on Gaza

22/7/2014

0 Comments

 
This is from yesterday but the impact this clip had on my is still there tonight so that's why I'm posting this. The clip title says so much 'we saw things that will forever be hard to unsee'. I could see in the face of Johnathan Miller, frustration, disbelief and total horror to what he is witnessing at this moment in time. (Just think about that for a minute... Really think)

The clip of his story is heart wrenching and makes me sick that this world, our world is allowing this to happen. And it's not just in Gaza. It's a time for change in our world and the way we all live together on our planet.

There should be NO WAR!
Abolish War!
Stop violence!
It's time for everyone on this planet to help each other and care for each. Each one of us is an important individual here. The is not one person on this planet the doesn't matter!

Dearest friends,

The last night was extreme. The “ground invasion” of Gaza resulted in scores and carloads with maimed, torn apart, bleeding, shivering, dying – all sorts of injured Palestinians, all ages, all civilians, all innocent.

The heroes in the ambulances and in all of Gaza’s hospitals are working 12-24 hour shifts, grey from fatigue and inhuman workloads (without payment all in Shifa for the last 4 months), they care, triage, try to understand the incomprehensible chaos of bodies, sizes, limbs, walking, not walking, breathing, not breathing, bleeding, not bleeding humans. HUMANS!

Now, once more treated like animals by “the most moral army in the world” (sic!).

My respect for the wounded is endless, in their contained determination in the midst of pain, agony and shock; my admiration for the staff and volunteers is endless, my closeness to the Palestinian “sumud” gives me strength, although in glimpses I just want to scream, hold someone tight, cry, smell the skin and hair of the warm child, covered in blood, protect ourselves in an endless embrace – but we cannot afford that, nor can they.

Ashy grey faces – Oh NO! Not one more load of tens of maimed and bleeding, we still have lakes of blood on the floor in the ER, piles of dripping, blood-soaked bandages to clear out – oh – the cleaners, everywhere, swiftly shovelling the blood and discarded tissues, hair, clothes,cannulas – the leftovers from death – all taken away … to be prepared again, to be repeated all over. More then 100 cases came to Shifa in the last 24 hrs. Enough for a large well trained hospital with everything, but here – almost nothing: no electricity, water, disposables, drugs, OR-tables, instruments, monitors – all rusted and as if taken from museums of yesterday’s hospitals. But they do not complain, these heroes. They get on with it, like warriors, head on, enormously resolute.

And as I write these words to you, alone, on a bed, my tears flow, the warm but useless tears of pain and grief, of anger and fear. This is not happening!

An then, just now, the orchestra of the Israeli war-machine starts its gruesome symphony again, just now: salvos of artillery from the navy boats just down on the shores, the roaring F16, the sickening drones (Arabic ‘Zennanis’, the hummers), and the cluttering Apaches. So much made in and paid by the US.

Mr. Obama – do you have a heart?

I invite you – spend one night – just one night – with us in Shifa. Disguised as a cleaner, maybe.

I am convinced, 100%, it would change history.

Nobody with a heart AND power could ever walk away from a night in Shifa without being determined to end the slaughter of the Palestinian people.

But the heartless and merciless have done their calculations and planned another “dahyia” onslaught on Gaza.

The rivers of blood will keep running the coming night. I can hear they have tuned their instruments of death.

Please. Do what you can. This, THIS cannot continue.

"We know to well that our freedom is incomplete without the freedom of the Palestinians"
                                                                                                          Nelson Mandela


And the freedom of every living being on this planet.....

I dream of a peaceful, compassionate and,
non-violent world.
I wonder am I crazy and dream too much?

About 5,000 demonstrators against Israel’s military strikes in Gaza held a protest yesterday in the Chilean capital, home to a sizeable Palestinian community.

The march took demonstrators to the Israeli embassy in Santiago, where some participants glued pictures of children who have died in the attacks to the walls of the building.

The marchers continued on to the embassy of the US, seen as Israel’s close ally.

Thousands of protesters gathered in London today to call for an end to Israeli military action in Gaza and 'justice and freedom' for Palestine.

Up to 15,000 people marched through the capital from Downing Street to the Israeli embassy in Kensington.

Respect MP George Galloway addressed the crowd. He said: 'They want to end the Palestinian people, but the Palestinians will never surrender.

'We are here to stay. As long as one Palestinian remains alive we will be with them.'
