Dead Gaza fighters "bulldozed into piles"

Dead Gaza fighters "bulldozed into piles": "GAZA (Reuters) - A Palestinian man captured by Israeli troops in Gaza said after his release on Friday that he had seen the corpses of many Islamist fighters bulldozed into piles covered with sand.

'They used a bulldozer to pile up the bodies of the dead. There were bodies of many fighters,' said the man, who was released by the Israelis after five days of detention and allowed to return to Gaza."

Broken Spring?       : Information Clearing House

Broken Spring?       : Information Clearing House This is a sequel to my June 2011 article, ‘After the spring’, on the upheavals in the Arab world.

These include a complex entanglement with the accelerated preparations for a possible attack on Iran, and a poisonous, sectarian aspect that could have the consequence of ripping Syria and the Middle East apart.
