This book about the physical and psychological trauma of the Israeli use of assassin drone in Gaza is really important. At the end of the 51 day Israeli attack on Gaza in 2014, 2310 Palestinians had been killed, 10,600 wounded, including 3,300 children. 872 homes were totally destroyed or severely damaged, and the homes of 5,005 families were damaged but still inhabitable. 138 schools were damaged or destroyed, 26 hospitals and health facilities were damaged. According to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), over 273,000 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip had been displaced of whom 236,375 (over eleven percent of the Gazan population) were taking shelter in 88 United Nations schools.Palestinian militias shot homemade rockets killing 66 Israeli soldiers, 5 Israeli civilians, including one child, and one Thai citizen in Israel.Al Mezan Center for Human Rights documents that, from 2008 until October 2013, out of 2,269 Palestinians killed by Israel, 911 were killed by drones, most during the 2008-2009 Operation Cast Lead. In the 2012 Operation Pillar of Defense, 143 out of 171 Palestinians killed by Israel were by drone attack.[...]In the 2014 Israeli attack on Gaza, the Al Mezan Center for Human Rights documents 497 Palestinians killed by drones, 32 percent of Palestinian deaths. [...]Atef Abu Saif's book about the psychological terror of drones is important as not only Israel, but the United States uses assassin drones. The US assassin drones eat with families in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Libya and wherever the US decides it should go.
Everyone should read this book. The sentences are achingly beautiful. The subject timely and important.
Not sure five stars is the right way to rate this but anything less would make a mockery of it. It leaves me with so many questions. Those questions are certainly because I am not a resident of Gaza or anything like it. Where I live things are peaceful and full of nature and birds and fresh air and lots of quiet. There are explosions and shots here but they do not scare anyone because they are coming from the various military ranges a few miles away. (I used to shoot at those ranges myself back in the day when I was in the military. So I know no one is allowed to shoot passed the red flags on either side.) Why would anyone live in a place like Gaza when they could live here? Well, so why can't they leave? Why if they could leave would they not want to? Who would want to be associated with a place so constantly under such conditions? 51 days of drones. And bombs. Missiles. And what sense does any of this make? But I also remember well the news we watched and heard during these 51 days and the youtube reports we watched. As I recall, I wondered why anyone in that situation would think it a war they could win and why would anyone launch anything at Israel when the response was so devastating and tragic. Were not the Israelis right to respond to attacks? Were the attackers launching rockets from schools and buildings and farm land so that the devastating attacks destroyed those very places? Were the people in Gaza really allowing such attacks and putting up with the horrors of the responses in the hope that public world wide awareness of this would change the support for Israel? But no, it hasn't. If anything it makes me wonder what psychological tools the Israelis might have that are alternatives. Atef Abu Saif admits to throwing stones when younger and being shot more than once. And imprisoned as well. And yet he earned a PhD and studied abroad. I also notice despite his being there and knowing everyone he describes he says nothing of those attacking Israel as if it did not happen and as if Israel were doing what it did for no reason. The companion book should be read side by side with this to fill in those gaps, but who will write it? At this point, such a glaring gap becomes more obvious with every page. We almost become empathetic with the drone operators who must have been desperate in their attempt to attack those who were attacking Israel before they attacked without killing those walking down the street with groceries to feed their family. Why did Israel strike targets with warning missiles before blowing them up after everyone had a chance to leave the target? This is all so sad. What could bring peace to these warring sides? There is clearly the view that what Israel did to Gaza is a war crime. What would Atef suggest Israel do to continue to live in peace instead of war?
This is a diary of a father living in Gaza City, recording 51 days of war on the city. It's 2014, from 7 July through August 26. He records events in his neighborhood, events with his neighbors and friends, and the reactions of his sons and daughter. His youngest child, Jalla, is a toddler girl growing up not knowing what living in peace means; for his oldest son this is the 4th war. To see children become immune to the constant threat of bombs and mortars and missiles is disconcerting. This constant fear becomes anger and resentment in adults.While he cites the drone attacks by the Israeli Defense Force, there are also missle attacks and bomb droppings by F16s and incessant "talks" between the politicians who rarely agree to anything. Life in Gaza means another day of surviving. Is that gun barage a celebratory shot, or a resumption of war? Hard to tell when one lives in fear all the time. Friends and family move around from apartment to apartment if one house gets blown up to rubble. And while the war is the central focus, one also learns about the drawn-out bureaucracy of rebuilding. Cement is rationed and takes months and years to procure, electricity comes on intermittently, food is always scarce and water is not always potable. Saif mentions things that people living in peace take for granted: calm time with friends and family and a bed to sleep in at night.This is a bittersweet recollection of the summer of 2014, when being with friends, family and enjoying a few World Cup soccer games is what makes living worthwhile. The voice is of despair rather than of hope, and reading this may anger some and disgust others. but it's beautifully told by a man who's lived his whole life just glad to survive another day.
