Injured toes!

Fabs,

O! Did they forget to mention 2 Israeli soldiers who injured their toes while trying to kick Palestinians on the head!...Israeli Army should really do something about foot protection!; This is a serious Health & Safety Issue.

And I agree that this is unfair converage...I mean come on how did they miss out on injured toes...

About six months in Jenin they also failed to mention 3 Israeli who got dehydration while trying to bulldoze all those houses in hot Middle-East sun...

Man! Where is Fairness & Justice these days!

.... So no Israelis have died?

The answer is over 1000 Israelis have died. Many in cowardly suicide bombings on public buses killing women and children. Many in lone attacks on civilian houses. Yes and of course when the Israeli army responds, soldiers have died as well. The question is though, why don't these 'martyrs' attack military targets first and foremost?

The truth is than less than 500 hundred Isrealis have died on those martydom operations against zionists. Most of them have been soldiers or settlers whose are living in the illegal settlements in the occupied areas of Palestine occupied 1948 (Yes, every settlements in the West Bank are illegal by the International Laws).

You call martydom operations as cowardly operations? I would call real coward those whose are sitting in the tanks and kill Palestinian children by them. Shame on you...

Fabs,

I am with you man; I agree. I have already said that Palestinian civilians should just lay low and die! I mean whats the point of all this?

Maybe they need more "19 year olds" from Brussels as advisors?

fabs,
whatever they want to call it, it is war over there. Atrocities are always committed. I mentioned my position about Israel on a post a few days ago. I understand the Jews claim Palestine/Israel as their homeland. But what of the Arabs there? If the diaspora happened what, 1800 years ago, don't those arabs that have lived there for nearly two millenia have an equal or greater claim to that land?

As for the suicide bombings, I don't agree. Those who use those tactics say that these are all that are left to them to fight the Israelis. As a former soldier I will say that these are very effective, albeit loathsome, strategies. They are exactly like our fire bombings of Dresden in WWII, except in miniature.

Some of my sisters or brothers who know Qu'aran better than me, help me out here. Isn't there something in the Qu'aran about never killing a woman, a child, an old person, or cutting down a green tree?

Why can't European Muslims take an example from their American counterparts on moderation? Fair enough, suicide bombing is effective insofar as it causes terror among the general population. People that praise this however are blind to human values. Yes the Israeli army does kill civilians from time to time in operations, but they don't expressly target civilians the way these groups do.

'Martyrdom operations'? You make me sick. Perhaps you'd like someone to climb into the bus you take on a regular basis and kill you along with other innocent people.
No, the victims have been young people lining up to enter a disco in Tel Aviv, not Zionists, commuting passengers, not Zionists, children heading to school, not Zionists, shoppers in a mall, not Zionists. The list can go on and on...

Here are some examples if you dare look:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Palestinian_Islamic_Jihad_suicide_attacks

How 'Islamic' are such attacks would you tell me please?

 

[sister herb]

By the international law (by so-called western democracy); occupation and its crimes are illegal and military resistance against this occupation is legal. Those 5000 were civilians BY INTERNATIONAL LAW! Whose murdered them were heavy armed soldiers supported by the USA.

Shame on you if you support those butchers.

 

[sister herb]

And about Wikipedia... it is fully zionist owned media organization, telling you full dis-information. Don´t trust it too much...

I expect you didn't check the links I gave. I didn't expect any better...
So they kill some of our civilians so lets kill some of theirs? How is an end in sight with logic such as this. Still my argument is, ISraelis don't target the innocent civilians, the terrorist groups do.
By International Law, violent attacks against a sovereign state, especially by a non-state entity, are illegal. Attacks against innocent civilians are certainly illegal in anyone's book.
Quite frankly when I see what Israel is up against, I'm glad the US ships it weapons. How else to fight against those that hide among civilians? Against those that hold up in churches(example: Church of the Nativity)?

Yes everything is owned by the Zionists! This site too is owned by the Zionists I'm sure. I'm sure there were no suicide bombings, and it was all made up.
I'm sure there really are no empty chairs at families' dinner tables....

Don't put words in my mouth, the other 5000 are human beings that died in the conflict and they had every bit a right to live as well.
But the 1000 Israelis weren't even mentioned by the person that started the thread, so I mentioned them, thats all.

Salaam alaykum

I agree with you but people like him never be quiet and will tell their opinions to the rest of the world who might to listen them and believe they words are true.

so...

Yes everything is owned by the Zionists! This site too is owned by the Zionists I'm sure....

So, why an earth you will send here kind of crab from the butchers of children? Killers and rapers of women? Persons whose torture men in prisons?

Do you think those 5000 were not human too? They all were fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers...
