Grüße zum Neuen Jahr aus Gaza
01. Jan 2009
Aus Gaza erreichte die pax christi - NahOstkommission zum Neuen Jahr dieser Gruß und persönlicher Bericht zur aktuellen Situation (engl. orig.) :
Dear Friends,
I would like to wish you happy new year. It is really 12 o'clock Wednesday, where I used to keep wake to wish a year better than the past.
This time is completely different, since 5 days I can not sleep, not only me, but more than 1.5 million human being. It is Silvester, but different one, strange one, real death, smoke and children cry, Ambulances. It looks for us that every last year better than the coming one. My mother told me it is like that since 1948.
I, my self can not believe what's going on, three years of siege, as a reaction of Hamas winning the election, then war. 60 war airplanes attacking Gaza within 5 minutes more than 250 person lost their lives. The rest of the people still shocked of the violence which created by the airplanes and continued for 24 hours a day, disturbing the life of children who are unable to understand. But they have strange spirits who can directly talk to God. NOUR (2 years old) directly few seconds after the hard attacked opened her hands to the sky saying YA RAB in Arabic means (LIEBER GOTT). The people in Gaza are completely shocked, waiting for the worse as Barrack promised them, but the promises of God is more sure peace and love.
