I don't think even Americans are as vigilant as they are in terms of not trying to harm innocent civilians.....

If the younger generation sees Israel different, I suspect a new eye prescription is in order......
Leaflets are a crock! With over 2 million people in an open air prison which is 25 by 3 miles, where should these people go?

Better than nothing... I don't recall America doing that... I think we did when we dropped nukes on the Japanese... but other than that.

Jewish people have had their asses handed to them, historically speaking... for them to have some fortitude and not deal with missiles being lobbed at them indiscriminately... is fine with me.....

Do you think for a second that if America had say Mexico lobbing bombs at them that we wouldn't go down there and whip ass, not in a New York minute would we put up with that... why do we expect differently from the Israelis??????

Would the US indiscriminately bomb women and children?

Gee, I wonder if it has anything to do with the explosion of Muslims and middle easterners in the US and Europe? Think that could be why there is 'less support'?

Also, many in my generation (I'm 31) are idiots. It's somewhat the liberal mentality. It sounds great in theory but doesn't work in real life.

Your ignorance is willfully showing... I'm not anti-American, but do you realize that we firebombed the hell out of japan during WW2....... plenty of innocent children and women were killed.

The onus is on Hamas... they are getting what they've sowed... of course no one wants to see innocents killed, but again... they are being warned that a shytstorm is coming....

I can't think of any more terrorist act than to indiscriminately bomb women, children, and families.

We must learn from history, don't you agree?

Hiroshima to Israel: Stop indiscriminate killings in Gaza
Quote:
We the citizens of Hiroshima, the city that was completely destroyed by indiscriminate atomic bombing 69 years ago, demand that the Israeli Government immediately stops indiscriminately killing and injuring Palestinian civilians.
Quote:
So far more than 500 people have been killed and about 3,600 injured as a result of continuous aerial bombing and bombardment on the ground, which started on July 8 and July 18 respectively. More than 80 percent of these casualties are ordinary civilians, in particular, women and children, not members of Hamas that Israel calls terrorist Islamic fundamentalists. Clearly such indiscriminate killing and injuring of Palestinian civilians by the Israeli military forces are crimes against humanity and war crimes. More than 60,000 people are now displaced within the Gaza Strip and struggle to survive under intense fear for their lives.

Why isn't your outrage directed towards Boko Haram, ISIS and Syria?
They are killing many, many more women, children and families.

Could it be that in the world of Muslims and Muslim apologists only Jews are terrorists?

Is that because younger generations are poorly educated and do not know history? of course.
