Post details: Qana funeral photos

Qana funeral photos English (UK)

Some photos apparently from Qana, where an Israeli airforce strike killed 28 people.

This is a very interesting image showing a funeral with Hezbollah and civillian coffins on show. Keeping in mind Palestinian stage management it's interesting that there are the four clearly marked coffins and I counted 23 individuals with matching yellow hats - a visual confession of Hezbollah affiliation. Of course, this imples that there may have been a similar number of terrorists in the area compared to total civilian casualties. Those are statistics that put the hype around this incident into a slightly different perspective, but I'm not forgetting that what happened there must have been horrific.

Commentary on the images is available in Arabic from Nora Younis, but unfortunately I can't read it. The BBC also carry a somewhat different set of images.

Sometimes when there's a lot going on in your head its nice to get it out on paper. Paper's too old fashioned so this programmer does it online. I'm 25 living in London and trying to develop an intelligent opinion about how the world should work. I'm not all there yet, so do help me out.
