There is something missing in this story about the damage in Gaza

Observer/Guardian:
A pause in the bombing by Israeli forces – and the ruins of Gaza are laid bare 
Repeated shelling has inflicted a terrible reality on Palestinians as they try to salvage something from shattered homes and lives
It is a long story about some of the damage to buildings in a couple of Gaza neighborhoods, but what is missing is any meaningful discussion of the tunnels Hamas built that prompted the ground invasion.  Nothing.  They give the impression the Israelis just tore up houses for the heck of it.   Also absent is any discussion of the rockets fired from these neighborhoods at Israeli non combatants.  There is also little mention of Hamas's strategy of using the people as human shields which led to the destruction.  So a death cult made up of religious bigots launches rockets trying to hit Israeli non combatants and builds a network of tunnels for the purpose of terror attacks on Israeli non combatants and this reporter missed the story.  This is what media bias looks like.

The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
