Feature: “They Should all Rot in Hell – Part I” [City of the Dead Series]

I try to avoid as much as possible reading articles or listening to reports about the dismantlement of the settlements in Gaza. But you can’t seem to avoid it. The amount of news coverage is astonishing.

It is almost impossible for me to look at this event from a political perspective. For one thing, I don’t think anyone, least of all the architect of the event, Arik Sharon, has a clue what the ultimate consequences will be. Will this be the beginning of the end of the settlement project? Or is this one more tactical move in a bloody game that has been going on for decades?

More than that, this is an intensely personal story for me. It brings me back to my days in Hebron, the city of the dead.

Next in a series….
