Once again, an Israeli massacre in Qana
Once more, Israel shows its "civilized" face in Qana..
Al-Jazeera is reporting 55 civilians dead, mostly women and children, in an Israeli bombardment of a three-story building that was hosting refugees, around 1am. The building contained 63 members of two families, according to Al-Jazeera.
The same town had witnessed Shimon Peres' 1996 massacring of civilians who took cover in a UN base.
Meanwhile, Hizbollah announced it killed today 8 Israeli special forces soldiers from the Golani Unit.
