BBC News footage this morning show continued high overhead shell explosions of WP during the hours of darkness. Indeed, the only way this could be clearly seen was because illumination rounds were burning high overhead at the same time.
By all means call me old-fashioned or even slow-witted, but I find it hard to believe that you use WH at night to create a smokescreen for your advancing troops, but then lob illumination shells high above the target area to illuminate everything under the sun. It is evident (to me anyway) that the Israeli's are indiscriminately using WH against civilians.
Obviously, Hamas lob rockets into Israel that also indiscriminately target civilians too.
Meanwhile Israel have now forbidden any journalists from the war zone....

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
