We write this billboard once more in the midst of escalation. 

Our government is engaged - with help of the rest of the world - in isolating the Palestinians and closing the financial tap. The purpose: to reverse the Palestinian election result. So far however the only result is that  Qassams continue to be fired, those poor men's rockets which are too primitive to be intercepted but which mostly fall somewhere in a field.  Now the Israeli army started in retaliation to bomb and bombard inhabitants of the Gaza Strip - from land, air and sea. In just two days this left already more than twenty dead, among them several children. Today a nine-year old girl was killed inside her home. At this very moment  a protest is being prepared for tomorrow in Tel-Aviv.

But... there was today also news which raises in spite of everything a spark of hope:

We hope we can achieve something."
