Gazangly speaking, I like the roaring of the F16s better than the buzzing of the drones. I mean the F16s just pass by they don’t stick around buzzing nonstop driving everybody crazy. And you know what, F16s sound like PHHHEEEWWwww… and that would be it, gone. Unlike drones. Drones my friend are different and not just any “different” they are “hostile different.” They go like DRRRRRrrrrrrrRRR!! Yes our drones don’t simply buzz “ZZZzz” they are more advanced. They DRR. I guess it’s because we are special people! ergo we get the special stuff. Drones don’t stop for gas, they don’t get rusty and the dude behind them doesn’t get a lunch break or break at all, so I think it’s safe to say that we are endowed with “full option” drones. We’re damn lucky! [sounds like an add.!]
Anyway, you know what I like most about drones? They deliver! They do their jobs hetero-perfectly, that no matter what you do: shut the windows, suffocate yourself with your billow, kill yourself, watch a movie (if you ever could! Because they distort the signal) or even drug yourself to sleep they would be there faithfully drring your head off! Actually if you did get lucky and slept at night, Guess what.. they pop in your dreams “Whoops where do you think you’re going? You can sleep but you can’t get deaf Drrrr!” and let’s face it we can’t just walk around all day with our headphones on! We gotta give our ears some rest! Hear that drones “A REST.”
Drones brought out all sorts of creativity in all people around Gaza. Some people discovered they can write, others found out that they can be real good photographers, others reviled their hidden poetry writing skills, others thought they should sign up for the next season of the X Factor because they figured out that they can actually holler! Sorry I mean sing and the others tweeted about it. You can check the hashtags #GazaMovies #DronesTaughMe #Drones
So as long as “BIG BROTHER IS DRONING US”, drring all day long and night “especially night” we aint sleepin’ and we aint dreamin’ of sleepin’ and for that I would like to seize this opportunity and declare a sleeping strike! I will not sleep until those drones go away. Who’s with me? Gazans, puh-lease.. don’t kid yourselves, you all are in whether you like it or not! It’s not an option really.
I bet u’re right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great article ya Amal I loved it
It was funny and sarcastic but yet informative for someone who wasn’t here with us during the last week.
I guess your ad for the drones is perfect! They should use it for real at the IDF
I tried to write a sarcastic or funny comment,
but I guess 2 sleepless nights wiped out all my Sarcastic powers,
Keep the good stuff coming
[...] Hope in Gaza – Drones are not an option [...]
THIS PIECE OF SHIT HAS KEPT BUZZING ALL DAY LONG ALL OVER GAZA STRIP! NO MATTER WHERE I GO, I COULD CLEARLY HEAR THE PIERCING SOUND. WHAT’S FUNNY IS THAT IT’S NOT JUST ONE HERON, BUT A BUNCH OF THEM UP TO 3 SOMETIMES. THE OTHER DAY WHEN I WENT TO IUG, THERE WAS TWO OF THEM RIGHT ABOVE OUR HEADS. WE COULDN’T START OUR LECTURE. WE CLOSED THE WINDOWS & DOOR. BUT THAT WOULDN’T DO ANY GOOD. WE HAD NO OPTION BUT TO START OFF OUR DAY WITH THIS LOUD EAR-SPLITTING SOUND. FOR ME, THEY WERE A DISTRACTION SOURCE CUZ I KEPT LOOKING AT THEM DURING THE CLASS. I FINISHED MY CLASSES & HEADED BACK HOME TO FIND THEM OVER OUR HOUSE. I SAID TO MYSELF ‘WHAT’S WRONG WITH THOSE PEOPLE? THEY JUST CAN’T GET ENOUGH OF PISSING US OFF. FOR GOD’S SAKE, F**K OFF’!
ANYWAY. I DID SOME DIGGING ON THIS KIND OF UNMANNED PLANES. I FOUND OUT THEY’RE CALLED “IAI EITAN” or “Heron TP MALE UAV Unmanned Aerial Vehicle”. IT OPERATES UP TO 52 HOURS DURATION.
AT THE END OF THE DAY, WE HAVE TO ACCEPT THE FACT THAT WE CAN’T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT BUT TO GO ON WITH OUR LIVES. I DON’T THINK BEING IN THE SKY OR NOT IS A GREAT DEAL FOR US SINCE WE’RE USED TO THIS KIND OF STUFF. I REMEMBER THE SOUND OF TANKS WAS EVEN MORE LOUDER THAN THE HERON. I HOPE SOME DAY WE CAN FIND A WAY TO BURN THOSE IUV’S DOWN TO THE GROUND..
