'cause if it was true, and the rebels saw all the press evacuating, wouldn't that tip them off, maybe just a little?<br /><br />rhetorical questions. i like them.<br /><br />my bet is rebel forces are far more mobile than an entrenched press corps which had been in the building for many years.<br /><br />this was about was retribution against reporting the truth of israeli oppression. nothing less. israel didn't want to kill the press (maybe they did but that'd be a big problem), they only wanted to send a message by making it harder for the truth to be shown and spoken.<br /><br />maybe i'm just an old mad poet shaking my fist at everything. believing nothing.<br /><br />typewriter.workshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14785780513252669415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5248447883714712696.post-1001081928368767392021-05-24T10:32:03.264+10:002021-05-24T10:32:03.264+10:00Brilliant piece.
