You won't see this on CNN:

"A string of Israeli air raids targeted Hamas militants in the Gaza Strip on Thursday.

In the afternoon, four boys reportedly aged between eight and 15 were killed whilst playing football near the al-Salam mosque in Jabaliya. Three of them were members of the same family, according to the Palestinian news agency Maan.

The interior ministry building in Gaza City, run by Hamas, was hit on Wednesday evening. The building was empty. 

Nearby buildings were caught in the blast, killing a baby and wounding at about 30 other people, Palestinian medical officials said."

The raid was in "response" to the killing of an Israeli student by a Hamas rocket on Wednesday.  I use the word "response" reluctantly and with hesitation, because it has the effect of equalizing the military might of the two parties.  These raids on Gaza, which have killed at least 20 Palestinians (including at least 9 civilians) are no less morally unjust than the killing of the Israeli student in Sderot, yet Israel escapes condemnation by the international community by claiming the deaths were merely collateral damage.  Dead civilians are dead civilians--no matter their nationality, skin color, religion, or sex; whether they are Palestinian, Israeli, Iraqi, Sudanese, Rwandan, or American. When will we begin to treat their deaths with an equal sense of moral outrage?

Over 5,000 Palestinians demonstrated yesterday on the main north-south road in Gaza to protest Israel's chronic shortage of food, medical supplies, fuel and electricity to Gaza. The event was organized by Hamas.

The crowd hoisted banners in English and Arabic, saying "End the siege of Gaza now", and "Your siege will not break our will," according to The Guardian.

The event was a commendable demonstration by Hamas – who usually make headlines because of violent attacks. But the human chain, despite its amazing show of Palestinian solidarity against Israel’s life-threatening blockade, did little to ease tensions along the border.

Toward the end of the demonstration, Isreali troops opened fire on two youth who set a tire on fire, injuring them both. 

Other violence was reported after the demonstration when some Palestinians tried to charge the border.

The demonstration ended with heavy rain along the strip: an ominous symbol of the humanitarian situation in Gaza. 

The news media has moved on from in-depth analysis of the iPhone’s release to more pressing matters, like Al Gore III’s most recent arrest for speeding while stashing marijuana, Vicodin, Valium, Xanax, Soma, and Adderall. (Can’t you picture Li’l Gore  just blasting the second verse of “99 Problems” when he saw the flashing red-and-blue lights in his rear-view mirror?)
