Jonothan Cook , a courageous British freelance journalist, and the founder of the Nazareth Press Agency in February 2004, discredits most of the data currently printed about the Israeli war against the people of Gaza: So far, only the more than 4,500 Gazans who have suffered severe burns from exploding Israeli "white phosphorous" shells, shrapnel wounds from artillery rounds, broken and lost limbs from aerial bombardment, bullet wounds, etc. have been counted. Israeli officials like to include such injuries among their own soldiers as light wounds and shock. By that standards, the residents of Gaza have now endured 1.5 million wounds, or is there some doubt about whether the weeks of bombardment of Gaza, one of the most densely populated places on earth, have left the entire population in a deep, and possibly permanent, state of shock?
