SMS from Dr. Mads Gilbert in Gaza
5/01/2009They bombed the local market two hours ago. 80 people hurt, 20 killed.
Everything arrived here at Shifa. Hades!
We’re up to our knees in death, blood and amputations. Loads of children. Pregnant women.
I’ve never experienced anything this horrible! We hear the tanks now.
Tell this story, forward this SMS, shout it out loud. Everything!
DO SOMETHING! DO MORE!
We’re all just history now. All of us.
