Sigh, the news on Gaza is depressing right now.

Last night on Channel 4 News, presenter Jon Snow was close to tears after the horrors he's witnessed in the last week and then during his live report Paul Mason looked physically angry and again close to tears. Then this morning, Al Jazeera had a UN official crying during an interview and again another UN worker was crying during a live interview on Radio 4.

When seasoned reporters and UN crisis workers are emotionally shellshocked, the slaughter of the Palestinian civilians must be truly horrific.
