GAZA CITY—As civilian casualties continue to mount amid the escalating
conflict along the Gaza Strip, 8-year-old Palestinian boy Walid Suleiman
expressed both joy and astonishment Monday that he has yet to be killed
in an Israeli military attack.
“Boy, I thought I’d be dead by this past
Saturday for sure, but amazingly enough, here I am,” said Suleiman,
adding that he is “pleased, but pretty shocked” not to be among the
estimated 100 Palestinians left dead by widespread Israeli airstrikes in
the region over the past six days.
“I’d have bet you anything that by
today they’d have already dug my corpse out from underneath a giant pile
of rubble and buried me alongside the rest of my family. Guess I won
the lottery, eh?”
At press time, incoming Israeli aircraft could be
heard swiftly approaching as Suleiman limped back to his home.
The Onion.
For those among you taking notes, I think the body count's now 100 to 3.
Hurrah for Zionism!
