Very good New York Times articles

Writes John Leo Keenan:

Dr. Feroze Sidhwa:  “I worked as a trauma surgeon in Gaza from March 25 to April 8.  I’ve volunteered in Ukraine and Haiti, and I grew up in Flint, Mich.  I’ve seen violence and worked in conflict zones.  But of the many things that stood out about working in a hospital in Gaza, one got to me: Nearly every day I was there, I saw a new young child who had been shot in the head or the chest, virtually all of whom went on to die. Thirteen in total.

At the time, I assumed this had to be the work of a particularly sadistic soldier located nearby.  But after returning home, I met an emergency medicine physician who had worked in a different hospital in Gaza two months before me.  “I couldn’t believe the number of kids I saw shot in the head,” I told him.  To my surprise, he responded: “Yeah, me, too. Every single day.””
