MANY LIBERAL BLOGGERS SILENT ON ISRAEL'S WAR CRIMES IN GAZA

Why is there so little coverage of Israel's destruction of Gaza in the liberal blogs? I know this might be an overstatement as there must be thousands of liberal bloggers out there. But . . .

Where is Daily Kos? How about Think Progress? And why so little comment on Talking Points Memo?

Israel well knows that Hamas was democratically elected in January 2006 and that it is part and parcel of the Palestinian population in Gaza. Hamas members come from the rank and file and represent the ordinary Palestinian living in Gaza. For Israel to bomb buildings, schools, mosques, apartment buildings means that Israel is really waging war on the civilian population. Having failed to subdue and subjugate Palestinians living in Gaza by its cruel and illegal blockade of fuel, medicine and food for the last 18 months, Israel is now trying to eliminate all of them by bombing and shooting.

Yet many in the liberal blogosphere remain silent on Israel's war crimes.
