Indeed it would be unfortunate if the press started printing gruesome images of skeletal starving women, men and children, isn't it.... You know, photos that reminded people of some sort of horror that was revealed 80 years ago.

This is more or less how "Ministry for the Future" starts, isn't it?

In 1976, Benjamin Netanyahu's brother died. A flight from Israel to Paris had been hijacked by some Palestinian and German terrorists, and flown to Uganda, where they demanded release of prisoners, threatening to kill the Israeli and Jewish passengers (the rest were released). Israel decided to launch a mission on foreign soil to rescue them, and I think Bibi's older brother was the sole Israeli casualty.

What we are seeing today in Gaza is most likely, mostly, as a direct result of that death. Raw caveman emotion. (with a few decades of carefully layered public relations)
