Witness to a shelling: first-hand account of deadly strike on Gaza port | World news | theguardian.com

Dispatch: Israeli strike kills four children on a Gaza beach - The Washington Post

Israel prides itself on giving ridiculous three-minute warnings of imminent bombings. These kids were not warned. Nor were they "human shields" for Hamas, as Israel loves to claim, as the hotel the beach is located on is used by foreign journalists. Israel cannot spin this to fit any of its ridiculous claims - this was a cold-blooded murder.

These were four cousins, aged 9 thru 11, who were slaughtered for being Palestinian. And there are hundreds if not thousands of similar cases throughout Israel's history. May they rest in peace.

Uh, you think? We're like an Israeli client state.

Israel has more representation in congress than the american taxpayer ( whose money they gladly take), so not likely the gravy train will end until the empire collapses.

Not even civilians within a country they are at war with, but civilians living in refugee camps who are not permitted to even organize and form a government that can represent or defend them. Palestinians could bend over backward and follow Israeli commands for years and their situation would be no better - homes would still be bulldozed to make way for Jewish settlements and they would still be denied the ability to set up a real government or travel freely. Maybe you should grow up.
Go talk to Europe and their conquests the last century or go talk to your African dictators or your terrorist friends if you want to know what killing civilians are about. You scream yet have no idea about history. You are pathetic.

There are countless Jews that are against the terror in Israel including some notable people I strongly admire like Noam Chomsky and Amy Goodman (from Democracy Now!). It sounds like an ignorant broken record when the "jew-hater" accusation is thrown at people that are anti-war and against terror and killing innocent women and children.

You want people from Gaza to "evacuate" a prison.

People in Gaza need to stop bowing down to the tyrants and stand up. Until then Israel will fire back. They didn't and never have fired first and usually lay down. Now they stand up and you scream. Only broken record is the arabs attacking Israel.

Is this some kind of sick joke?
