Ok, Mr. Blitzer, maybe you shouldn't be covering the Palestinian-Israeli conflict because you are not even pretending to be even-handed. I watched you gently interview Israeli spokesmen like they were your old buddies and then afterwards trying to rough up the representative for PLO. I understand the natural bias here but still, you acted like either you didn't know or didn't want to know that Gaza is a one giant jail under a permanent Israeli siege. It's been obvious to everyone but you, and other pro-Israeli hacks within MSM, that Israel has taken every step available to make sure that Gaza under Hamas fails. With an unemployment rate, according to the World Bank sources, reaching 40%, you bet there will be violence. You want people to feel sorry for Israeli citizens having an inconvenience of running to shelters and I do feel sorry for them. But, Gazans don't even have shelters to run for. Try to be a real journalist and embed yourself with a Palestinian family in Gaza for a week, and then come back and report to us. Otherwise, you have no credibility.
There has never been peace nor will there ever be. The Middle East is a powder keg, waiting to explode into a world war.
