summary: 
The 1960 Sharpeville massacre in South Africa marked a turning point in how people saw the apartheid regime. Ali Abunimah believes the attack on Gaza may have the same effect.

Israel's three-week attack on Gaza is a humanitarian disaster for the people living there. Ali Abunimah is co-founder of the Electronic Intifada, an online English-language source of news on Palestine. He says he feels that there is a quantitative change of the level of public criticism of Israel amongst mainstream commentators.
