Atrocious in Gaza. Norwegian Hijab vs Egyptian Bikini. Shah of Africa, Wild Goats, and Mummies
" JERUSALEM — Israeli combat soldiers have acknowledged that they forced Palestinian civilians to serve as human shields, needlessly killed unarmed Gazans and improperly used white phosphorus shells to burn down buildings…..
