“A Pornography of Destruction”– Annie Lennox on Gaza Rocket Attacks

Singer Annie Lennox writes on her blog:

I have to say that I feel deeply upset and affected by the recent bombings on Gaza. The Israeli army says they are justified by taking this action, in retaliation for the shelling by Hamas, but it just seems to me that this level of violence will only escalate into more horror and killings….How can it not???
It’s utterly atrocious to see people suffering like this…. A pornography of destruction.

More than 600 Palestinians have been wounded in the one day attack; 225 are dead, making the highest one-day death toll in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in decades.
