The army bulldozers have razed down any remnant of the event. Every thing has deteriorated. I met people having a bad time, permanently humiliated and insecure but still determined to resist. Sharing the evening meal with another family, the young told me that the Israelis could do all they want. No restriction, they are the masters.
Force is on their side.
In spite of this unbearable situation, they still continue to struggle. I celebrated mass with a priest friend and the Sisters of F. Foucauld who have lived in Gaza for 25 years. I admire these Sisters who share the destiny of the Palestinian people. They told me that as long as this unfair situation lasts, there will be no peace. Injustice creates violence.
