A Palestinian
"A Palestinian girl plays with pigeons in front of her family�s destroyed house in the war ravaged Ezz Abed Rabbo district of the Jabalia refugee camp in the northern Gaza Strip on November 3, 2009. The Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas has successfully test-fired a rocket capable of reaching Tel Aviv from the Gaza Strip, a senior Israeli general warned. AFP PHOTO / MOHAMMED ABED (Photo credit should read MOHAMMED ABED/AFP/Getty Images)." Why should this caption talk about Hamas missiles? Secondly, her house was destroyed by Israeli occupation forces and not by some anonymous "war" as the caption states. (thanks Julie)
