Gaza : was it worth a war ? 1330 Palestinians died, of whom 315 children. More than 5000 were injured. 4000 houses destroyed, 17 000 severely damaged. Schools, universities and mosques smashed by bombs are the tragic aftermath of the three-week Israeli attack in Gaza Strip. Civilians and investigators of various Human Rights organizations, such as Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International, witnessed and denounced war crimes committed by the Israeli army of Tsahal. These organizations also blame Hamas for using some families as « human shields », forcing them to stay in their homes despite bombings. Goals of the Israeli State in this war have not been reached. Hamas still holds Gaza Strip in its iron hand. Palestinian activists still smuggle weapons from Egypt to Rafah through tunnels despite bombings. Tunnels are the sole hope for populations to get water, food and oil supplies so far. Several Qassam rockets have been shot on Israel after the ceasefire has been declared. From 2001 to the beginning of the Israeli offensive, these rockets have killed 14 Israelis. Frederic Sautereau / Oeil Public January 2009.
