Muy temprano en la mañana se desató la tormenta de sangre y odio más brutal en la historia del Estado Judío. Efectivamente, muy cerca del lugar en donde creemos muchos que Moisés le fue entregado, lo que sería luego la base de la justicia y la convivencia de buena parte de la humanidad, comenzó la peor pesadilla del Estado de Israel y la mayor masacre del pueblo judío sede el cierre de Auschwitz y la derrota de la barbarie Nazi.Lo vivido ese sábado negro es una desgracia horrible ejecutada con alevosía y maldad para poder generar el mayor daño y dolo posible.

Aborda también el legítimo derecho de Israel a defenderse y la hipócrita respuesta a la tragedia de una buena parte de la izquierda y dEste libro es un instrumento ágil y certero que intenta ayudar a entender lo inexplicable.Mientras continúa la operación del ejército de Israel denominada "Espada de Hierro" en respuesta a la cruel y espantosa matanza perpetrada por el grupo terrorista Hamas-Isis, hecho que cambió para siempre al Estado Judío, se publica este libro con la alta probabilidad que dicha masacre haya cambiado para siempre al medio oriente y, que muy posiblemente, tenga un impacto significativo en la historia de la humanidael progresismo.
