All we will ever be told is that it's justifiable to kill innocent civilians like that because it is Israel defending itself. That is all we need to know.
Then we put faith in the UN to deal with it fairly and it has always been unable to. Nothing will ever change with that , it is set in stone... Quote:

Israel had 13 people killed, 3 of them civilians, in this latest round. so, 13 dead Israelis = 1300 dead Palestinians.

I guess it's like this... say I am Hamas and you are Israel.
I keep flicking toothpicks at your face in the bar... you yell STOP but I laugh and keep flicking the toothpicks at your face. The bar security do nothing... So you get up and close both my eyes ( No one in the bar pulls you off because you are 16stone and solidly built..a few onlookers shout out hey... hey.. but no one does anything to stop you) I just laugh and keep flicking toothpicks at your face .. hard , then harder...occasionally getting one in your eye. Do you beat me unconscious or leave? Leave and run the risk of having to fight several big hairy bikers on the way out for being such a wimp.. not a great analogy... but you get my drift? |

Obama urges Israel to open Gaza borders
President Barack Obama urged Israel on Thursday to open its borders with Gaza. The plea came in a speech that signalled the new US administration’s shift from Bush-era policy on the Middle East and the world as a whole. In a high-profile address on his second day in office, just hours after he signed an executive order to close the centre at Guantánamo Bay, Mr Obama proclaimed that the US would “actively and aggressively seek a lasting peace between Israel and the Palestinians” in the wake of this month’s Gaza war. |

In defense of who?
U got to be kidding.
Too upset to read the whole thread. There is no defense for Israel's killing that I can see

i think multi has it with the toothpicks analogy...
also the knife it is quite terrifying living under rocket fire. especially in the southern cities of sderot where such rocket fire has been going on daily for almost 10 years with minimal response from israel. victims arent just measured in deaths, but there are victims of terror who cannot leave their homes for fear of an alarm signaling rocket fire (mind you i came very close to being in one of these areas on my recent trip to israel, missed it by not much at all). Israel has shown so much restraint, but it got to a point where its just not bearable. Citizens living in the borders of their homeland have the right to feel safe within those borders. As to children being killed, didnt you hear hamas admitted they use children as human shields? its well known...
