Gaza Mortar Bomb Kills Four-Year-Old Child!!!

Hamas is targeting schools, and synagogues in retaliation for Israel bombing their schools and mosques. The only difference is, Hamas uses schools and Mosques to store arms and ammunition and fire their rockets from and the people in them as human shields.

Many of the tunnels they discovered and destroyed lead directly to Schools and Mosques that later were targeted by Israel.

Israel does not use schools and synagogues to hide their arsenals and rocket launching facilities. Israel is justified in their collateral damage where as Hamas is just committing cowardly acts which are against the agreements of War under the Genevieve Convention.

hey are at war buddy, what do you think happens? The woman and children should be avoided?

I'm not surprised it's happened...
But it is a war crime to kill civilians...

So yeah I don't know about any agenda just thought it was relevant to Middle Eastern Forum...

I feel like I'm being bombarded just for sharing the news...
I must resist in future!

You are being bombarded for your use of words, exclamation points (of the obvious), and trying to make a non-issue a relative point for guilt....Or trying to call them monsters when they are at war...Pick one, that is why you are being bombarded, you didn't just share the news, the news you shared had your skewed opinion in it...That's why

Haha, Israel already violated that when they besieged Gaza and even before that, they'd already violated human rights laws in their treatment of Palestinians whilst building illegal settlements in the occupied territories. Fail

Maybe you'd like I discuss why it's skewed instead of trying to back me into a corner.

The exclamation marks is my own personal OCD...
3 at a time, not agenda just something I'm trying to stop.

Or trying to call them monsters when they are at war

Yes it's a war, we've both stated that... I've also said that this consists of a war crime.

& Whoever did this is a monster...
I'm not going to go with anything but my heart on this one, it's abhorrent.
Or you disagree that the killing of this child is the work of a monster?

I'm a Muslim...
Do I love death more than life?
Am I a coward?
Is my missus?

Your generalisation isn't helping the discussion in the slightest!!!

You are right and I apologize for generalizations.
I know nothing of world politics, I do not believe the Jews run the world, and blasting Muslims is actually derailing this thread.

But that being said I do believe that every single rocket launched by hamas is targeting innocent Israeli school kids. Every single one.

Can you refute that?

Now that one has actually killed an Israeli child you feel remorse? Every single rocket launched haphazardly towards Israel has the potential of hitting innocents more than military targets.

Couldn't agree more pal, I don't support Hamas at all I think they're are part of a bigger agenda tryin to get Aid money that should actually be going to civilians.

I've prayed everyday for the last few years that no child should be harmed, on both sides...

No again I agree it's not something I read with wide eyes, I'm disgusted to be honest!

Very brave words from someone living in Scotland. Go live with and in the same mind of the Jews in Israel for a few years and then you may have a more balanced view of things.

By the way it was the UK who gave Israel them their original land back in the early 1900's and it was ratified after WWII in 1948 by the then UN.

So suck it up UK'er.

a reply to: ChesterJohn

it is nice to know that with "blame the Hamas" rhetoric you and others who use it can successfully paint your world black and white thus making it more simple and yourself more happy and content.

really, I'm glad it works for you.

school bombed? because of Hamas

kids playing soccer bombed? because of Hamas

civilians burned with phosphorous bombs? because of Hamas

hospital bombed? because of Hamas

thousands civilians killed by Israel? because of Hamas

many more wounded, maimed? because of Hamas

building walls against illegally settled land? because of Hamas

dropping from peace talks? because of Hamas

...

razing houses of civilians? because of Hamas

holding children prisoners? because of Hamas

...

must be dandy in the your world.

This war should be fought with as little bloodshed and death as possible. That way it can last longer. Was WWII the last war fought where achieving the objective at all costs was acceptable?

I'm dodging Ferguson not because it's a distraction, it's actually relevant to social issues, but I'm not educated enough on the American legal system to be honest.
Sad state of affairs though!

I'll fill you in. The MSM reported an unarmed black teenager was gunned down for no apparent reason by white cop. End of Story, Trayvon Martin Part 2.
With Trayvon they showed a cute young boy who was the victim of being unarmed and shot down by a vigilante, later, if you cared to look, you would find that cute picture was 5 years old and that Trayvon was far from a cute kid, kicked out of school and deep into drugs. (I bet a lot of you don't know that)

Now Michael Brown is referred to as a Gentle Giant, although his Rap sheet for this year is about 10 Incidents long. Obvious from the video he is a bully.

Divide and Conquer, weaken the Nation with a Civil Rights distraction because the Public only has the Capacity for one disaster at a time.

I fell for both Stories Initially, but when you later find out the Truth you get angry that the MSM is creating an Alarmist Reaction instead of Good Journalism. Now you have to look at WHO controls the Media, Journalists are not will to say what they want or they'll be gone (Dan Rather). Everything passes thru an Editor who refines what is presented.
So easy to create a distraction, so easy to lie. What if almost all Media in the USA was controlled by Muslims, would everybody be ok with that?

what about chances of Israel strike to kill a civilians instead of military targets?

those are pretty high if you ask me!

and it's not only chances!

there is a growing pile of bodies to prove the "potential of hitting innocents"!

Clearly my words of truth had an effect and no matter where I was to live in the world, I'd rather die than be a racist. And the U.N. didn't give them the land, it has always been occupied territory and Israel have constructed settlements there, which is against international laws.

EDIT: don't confuse bravery with common sense.

The thing I usually get from these type threads is that it's fine and dandy for one group of religious lunatics to murder children-but not ok for the other group of religious lunatics to murder children.

The death will continue on both sides until the world finally has enough and turns the middle east into a sea of radioactive glass.

Personally,I hope it happens sooner than later...

Not saying they arent. But...Israel uses American technology, smart bombs, guided missles...even phone calls to warn civilians of upcoming incoming. Hamas launches haphazardly towards civilian populations.

Are you really going to say the odds are the same?

I guess people are ignorant on how wars work, People die. Men die, women die and kids die.

Back in the day when the warriors met in a field somewhere with swords and spears and fought each other till one side was dead mainly only men died. When you fight in the cities everybody becomes a casualty.

I don't think it's right but it happens. Quit acting it like it's the first time it's happened. This is not a first.

Now with these terrorist groups you even have kids fighting. It's not uncommon to see a 12 year old carrying an AK-47.If people didn't die it wouldn't be war...it would be a tea party.

The armies should just meet on a battlefield somewhere away from civilians and fight it out and the winner is now the new ruler like the old days.

a reply to: FalcoFan

I agree, and its always the same religion of peace that is creating hell on earth and people tend to ignore that fact, or blame the crusades or the U.S. Govt.

Rarely does the blame fall upon the actual terrorist.

a reply to: tinner07
If Israel didn't have all the weapons from American and Britain they would've got their butts kicked in long ago.
Israel should've never been allowed to posses such weapons, as we see now, they use them disproportionately. Open borders where all can live and vote is a true democracy and is what will happen to Israel. No walls, fences, checkpoints....just jews and muslims and whoever else who wants to live there - living together, and all are equal and have the power of a vote. I think the US should busload lots of willing people there. black, white----all races and religions.

Israel needs diversity. Diversity Israel needs and shall get. The people of Israel aren't against diversity.....are they?


Very sad to see kids die on any side.

It would send a bunch of martyr wannabees to their goal. But unfortunately that will never happen. They are more comfortable bombing fruit markets than engaging an army.

Yes-placing blame on the the actual killers is "inconvenient".
