By David Isaac, World Israel News Former Miss Iraq Sarah Idan, 29, who has been outspoken in her support for Israel, again proved herself a most effective defender of the Jewish state in a series of tweets over the weekend.Most recently, on Sunday, she responded to a tweet taking issue with an earlier comment she made that Gaza wasn’t occupied.“The irony of you calling me sick and saying Israel deserve [sic] 10,000 rockets while I condemn an act of war firing 600 rockets from civilian areas in Gaza,” she tweeted.“You don’t even think about Palestinian families live there pay for Hamas mistakes, cause revenge is more important,” she added.Miss Idan referred to the fact that Gaza terrorists use the civilian population as human shields in order to deter Israeli fire. Sometimes the terrorists’ own fire does the damage.
