Terrorists fire rockets from Gaza hospital !! Hamas uses Wafa hospital compound to attack soldiers, fire anti-tank missiles; ground, air forces attack Gaza City where they claim 'an entire Hamas brigade is active'.. Bastards !! Using civilians and public hospitals . Nazi Haled Mashaal sleeps in a fancy hotel in Qatar ... Blahhhhhhhhhhhhh http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4548760,00.html The IDF Spokesperson's Unit released footage documenting Hamas terrorists launching rockets from the al Wafa Hospital compound in Gaza City's Shajaiyeh neighborhood. The IDF said that after days of consideration it has begun to attack the Wafa Hospital compound. The military claimed the hospital has been a hotbed of terrorists activities, with gun and anti-tank missile fire originating from the cite. MOD EDIT - Rule 3/6
i am not a jew lover, but when the military is involved, i respect the Jewish soldiers conduct/ behavior in war, alot more then Palestinians.. fighting as a under dog against a Superior arm force, gives no right to use your own civilians as sandbags.
Many Israeli Druze and Christian Arabs are fighting with the Israeli Jews against Hamas terrorists. All knows that hamas should be destroyed !!
Are you aware that Gaza is one of the most densely populated areas on earth and 70% of the people are refugees from the West Bank and Israel?? Give that some thought.
On that I have to reply that the pariah state of Israel has killed innocent civilians for years with impunity. I suppose the 200 children were all armed terrorists ? On that note one should despise the description of terrorist. People caged and blockaded for eight years are resistance fighters and not terrorists. Just one more delusion by the afflicted. (There is a medical term for that) As a European I feel that Israel has not suffered enough deaths in comparison. One thing is for sure, whoever their god may be he is NOT in heaven.
Is that a good enough excuse in your book for violating all kinds of international laws and the Geneva conventions by the government of Gaza, aka Hamas? Are you of the opinion that international law needn't be followed in densely populated areas? Or perhaps the government of Gaza should have thought of that before firing rockets at a neighboring country and built more bomb shelters, less illegal tunnels?
Nope.. 70% of Gazans were settled people in the West Bank and Israel before they became refugees.. However more and more are Bedouin that have been forced out of the Negev over the years. - - - Updated - - - Israel has done more than its share of killing civilians and violating international law.
Why bulldozers when under the guise of 'targeting Hamas', Israel consistently pounds civilian infrastructure - including hospitals - with F-17s?
This thread is specifically about the violations of international law by the Palestinians. You've contributed excuses and justifications of these violations. You think international law should be selective, it should be applied to Israel but not to the Arabs, don't you?
It's very revealing that you use the word "Arabs" in the generic sense and "Israel" in the singular. Not that you have a history on here of crude racist sectarianism. Of course not.
LoL, don't get me going Margot. I just about had it with naiveté and big bleeding moslem ars-kissin Liberal hearts. 500 Palestinians killed by Israel in self-defense, and the World is in uproar at Israel disproportionately responding to Hamas shooting rockets at Israel. 170,000 Syrians killed in atrocious crime against humanity, and the World is in uproar at Israel disproportionately responding to Hamas shooting rockets at Israel. Makes me wanna puke.
And the entire Palestinian population refused to turn over the murderers of the three Israeli teenagers or to demand that their government Hamas stop firing rockets on Israel or demand Hamas stop building militray tunnels under their apartments or using civilian sites as military sites. I guess for Palestinians there exist no such thing as zoning if ever there is war crimes HAMAS is guilty of it.
Don't (*)(*)(*)(*)ing shoot rockets from civilian infrastructure - including hospitals, and they'll be left alone. Try and get it through you head, please - when it comes to survival of Israel and defense of it's citizen, Israel will not turn the other cheek and will respond in kind, collateral damage notwithstanding.
That piece of BS can be put to bed straight away: http://www.theguardian.com/commenti...eful-injustice-israel-attacks-occupied-people
Adhere to international law, don't be invading, occupying territory and expanding settlements and they'll be no need for Hamas rockettes. No occupation=No resistance to occupation.
Here you go again ignoring daily war crimes and violations of international humanitarian human rights laws and the Geneva conventions by all Arab states and conveniently forgetting to mention that in the eyes of Hamas and in fact the overwhelming majority of the arab world the entire Israel is occupied territory. Seriously trout, who are you trying to fool with such absurdly naive and baseless claims... Israel had been attacked since the moment it was established, long before the war of 1967.
Please don't give me that guardian crap either, trout. Were rockets not flying, these people be at their homes eating lamb chops. Simple, really. Again, Israelis cannot afford to, and will not turn the other cheek, and will respond ferociously whenever the safety of Israel and it's citizens is at stake.
For the uptiest time, Israel does not occupy Palestinian territory, but rather a "disputed" territory, until such time as the fate of territories is decided through the negotiations. The international law does not compel Israel to return disputed territories... and to whom will they be returning it to, anyway? Who holds the title to the lands? Which sovereign nation? Hm? Am I saying something that you was not aware of, trout?
This is out and out wrong!!!! We will just table the discussion on Israel occupation for a second. Israel is not occupying anything, but for a moment, I will say you are right. Even if the so called occupation ended, the rockets would not. Hamas does not want to co exist with Israel. It never has, its mantra is to wipe Israel off the face of the earth. To kill every jew in the world. That is what they want. Nothing else. So do you honestly think if Israel, pulled back all influence in Gaza, and let Hamas do as they please, that Hamas would live in peace next to Israel? Of coarse not, as they say, they value death more than Israel values life. They will keep bombarding Israel with rockets, launched from hospitals and civilian centers, and use children and innocent people as human shields. Their goal, they would want to kill every single Israeli citizen. That is why peace negotiations do not work with Hamas, because they have an ideology that they will not live in peace, and every jew must die, and there can be no Israel. These are the people you support. Never forget their hatred, and their evil ultimate intentions. Israel would gladly live in peace next to Palestine. The Israeli people would jump for joy, if Hamas wanted peace, and live in their land, and go about their days just letting everyone live in peace. Israel does not have a mantra to wipe Palestine off the face of the earth, or kill every Muslim in the world. Israel can pull back, and even give up some land that Israel has already, and Hamas would still not be happy, they would still want war, and want to kill every jew. Stop saying Israeli occupation caused this, Hamas ideology of Israeli destruction caused this, and no matter what Israel does, no matter what land it gives up, Hamas will not stop launching rockets, and terrorist attacks in Israel. They are actually lucky that Israel wants peace, and wants to negotiate, and values life, unlike Hamas, who value death. Any other nation attacked by Rockets, would have used their full military might, to eliminate all threats and the ability of their enemy to make war, which would have meant the deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocent Palestinians.
