Haifa and Beirut
We always see on CNN the devastation of Beirut, but we seldom see the other side.
Haifa, the city I live in, is a ghost city.Many people have died from Katusha attacks already, and most people, like my family and me, have fled the North. We found shelter at good hearted friends and family in the Tel-Aviv area.
The pictures show the devastation after the hit in the center of Haifa. Katusha is a rocket designed to kill people. The little holes were done by thousands of round bullets that surround the explosives in the rocket's head. Of course, this is forbidden by the Geneva's convention, but who cares. We only hear about the deteriorating humanitarian condition in Beirut, when almost exclusively the Hezbollah quarters were hit.
I'd like to ask to one of the crying mothers interviewed in Beirut's hospitals, if she had the power to go back in time and even decide a course of events:
1) No attack on Israeli civilians, no kidnap of Israeli soldiers, and no war at all, or
2) The current course of events with all the pain caused on both sides.
You'd be surprised by the answer.

Notice that the rocket is being fired from a populated area (see the traffic light?)
