It's Friday, which means it's time for yet another protest calling for the opening of the Gaza border. And lo and behold, it would appear that Hamas has trotted out one of our regular (and very adorable) little anti-Israelis in this little rally. Of course, events like these are nothing but attempts by Hamas to shield their "more" violent members behind the cloak of innocent women, children, and elderly—which is a ruse. Nothing more, nothing less.

I'll say it again:—It is absolutely surreal to be able to watch someone grow up over such a vast distance for no reason other than they make for a convenient propaganda ploy for the cameras. If this keeps up, I think I'm going to have to dub her, Li'l Rage Girl.

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain --er, I mean on the other side of the border!] Palestinian children take part in a protest calling for the end of Israeli sanctions on Gaza November 9, 2007.
