"The Goal is to defeat international terrorism. This is a noble goal, a sound goal .But this has to be done when all of us are equal parties and not follower." - Amr Moussa , Secretary General of the Arab League


As the rest of the world ushers in the New Year, heralded by the Christmas festivities, Gaza was reverberating with the return of the familiar fire from the skies. The unprovoked attack by Israel - at least there was no immediate incident(s) to justify an aerial bombing for several days - has been condemned by the rest of the world, with the near-exception of only the US and the UK. Even the US, while calling the Hamas, 'rogues', called for a ceasefire, after the UN asked Israel to stop attacking Gaza and its population.
