As Israeli airstrikes continues for a seventh day, we turn to a film by Fida Qishta, a young Palestinian filmmaker born and raised in Gaza. The documentary, produced by DeepDish TV, is called "Where Should the Birds Fly?" The title is taken from a poem by renowned Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwish. The film looks at the effects of the 22-day Israeli military operation in the Gaza Strip in 2008-09 that killed more than 1,400 Palestinians, the vast majority civilians.

If you came at the issue from a factual perspective rather than a hateful and racially charged one, you may be less likely to have the term "anti-semite" applied to you. Instead, you prefer to descend into obscene name calling and holocaust denial, which honestly appears to be better suited to a klan meeting than any forum for rational discussion.
