The rocket launchers ARE in the middle of poplulated areas. Hamas is using civilians - woman and children included, as sheilds.

The one to blame for these deaths is Hamas.

Your probably lucky the US is holding the Jews back otherwise someone might be glowing at night.....

Really? I think you need to read some more newspapers, preferably not Palestinian/Arab ones... because I think at this point, we couldn't even COUNT the Israeli deaths. Have you forgotten all the suicide bombings, bus explosions, etc? Apparently.

No...The Palastinians have sugar Daddie's called Iran, Syria and most of Europe who poured billions into Palastine, i mean Arafats french Bank acounts.

When Hamas stops launching missiles into Israel then Israel will stop having to protect itself with all means possible.

I don't know if I'd call it that exactly... but it is a desperate attempt to gain sympathy, offensive to anyone who actually survived the Holocaust, and factually misleading & incorrect.

Your claim is absolute rubbish...

Israel is following the rules of war... they are trying hard to minimize civilian casualties.

Hamas, on the other hand, is ruthlessly putting it's women and children in harms way to intentionally get as many killed as possible - for purely PR purposes - in order to garner sympathy from the hopelessly gullible. They want the pictures of dead/wounded women and children - the more the better - their goal is for thousands of them to die.

Israel needs to fight back against Hamas - no matter what inhumane tactics Hamas uses.

The civilian casualties in this situation are entirely the fault of Hamas.

So now Jewish American summer camps are being compared to Hamas jihadist training camps???

I thought I had heard it all... this is a new low in terrorist boot-licking...

Of course you're right; but look at the post with which he started this thread. There was, how shall I put it, a bit of a bias right from the start. "Israeli apologists," he declared. So it was no secret where this whole thing was meant to go. Probably considered the Holocaust a Jewish invention too.

Yes - there are plenty who think the Holocaust never happened - mostly White Aryan Nation types...

I think that those who charge Israel with massacre in situations like this are nothing but Islamic Terrorist Boot-Lickers..
