March 29, 2007: Sewage Tsunami in Gaza
This is from a BBC image gallery of a disaster in Gaza yesterday. It killed at least 5, injured at least 15, and left 70% of the village, of 3000 residents, buried in raw sewage. Bleh. They also had to clear out their livestock. Some goats made it... And some didn't. another full story |

Ah...dirt farming. Thus is the fate of unrestrained enterprise. Idiots.

I don't find amusement in it. But I totally respect the right of other people to make light of an awful situation.
How do you think people keep going in a world where revolting and tragic things happen globally on a daily basis?

Dude with the beard and hat in the second picture has his mouth clamped damn tight there.
This tragedy reminds me of robbing the pillars in coal mining. Stupid greed. Plain and simple. |
