It's impossible to describe the anger felt by people here about the situation in Gaza. It's the topic on everyone's mind, and whatever their political leanings few fail to condemn Israel. Many blame America as well, and our caretaker, a lovely and good natured gentleman who is always happy to help us, keeps a picture of Bush with a shoe superimposed over it - this he grinds his foot into every time he enters the door.
This anger has spread beyond Qatar: I was surprised to come across this video on You Tube of a British-Jewish politician condemning the attacks in Qatar.
