...animals? This is inhumane," a man yells from a bus that is packed so tightly with people that limbs, heads, and torsos are pressed against the dirty windows. "I'm a German citizen," he calls out. "I have two children with me. They are dying." To the non-Palestinians at Rafah Crossing, "Come and see how the Palestinians live" was a popular refrain through the long, hot wait.

"I haven't seen her for years," she told the Herald Sun. "The first I knew of all this is when they came and arrested [my husband...
...Another former friend also told the Australian that she began to piece things together when she overheard the victim's children addressing her father - their supposed grandfather - as "daddy," asking him if they could take their bicycles for a ride. "I thought, 'Daddy?' It didn't sound right to me. That's not a normal sort of thing.'
