Yes, it is happening again - Palestinian homes are being bulldozed and we are going to have a new Rachel Corrie as martyr with new plays about her as well as lots of protests and demonstrations in the West. Uh, wait a minute. Israel is not occupying Gaza any more.
Well, no. In fact, the Palestinian homes in Rafah were demolished with some brutality displayed towards the people in those homes by - Hamas. Why? Well, apparently, they were on government land and .... oh, whatever.
I am guessing there will be no demonstrations, no plays, no Western martyrs. Nobody cares about the Palestinians that much. Phyllis Chesler has the story and a few tart comments.
