The War In Gaza

I started my Gaza thread. It was high jacked by superchunk, comrade and some other dude. Its a tragedy that it turns into some kind of religious/race thing when really its about not killing people

Israel bombed a School today.

Israel's worst casuality was self inflicted today, 3 dead.

My opinion, US should stay the frig out of UN business (ie not veto) when a decision by them is clearly in the best interests of any and all civilians on the ground.

Secondly, impeach Bush

 

Highjacked?  Those are some strong words.  You asked a direct question in your thread, and each of us whom you listed as the "highjackers" merely answered your question.  Are you suggesting we are forum terrorists because we answered honestly?  If the purpose of your original thread was to have only people whom agree with your position answer, then that should have been stated in your post.

As for the rest of your comment...

Israel destroyed a rocket installation that was positioned at a school, and hence a school was destroyed because Hamas decided to place it there.

I do enjoy the humor of your insinuation that Hamas is not to blame for using a school as a military hideout.  Considering that Hamas was using a UN installation, I also find it quite interesting that the UN is not throwing a fit that a terrorist group is using their installation as a place of death rather than the house of education that it was intended to be. 

But, as Hamas has admitted before, they do this on purpose to cause civilian deaths for PR purposes.. so I am not shocked by their actions at all.

And because Israel has less deaths, this suddenly makes them evil?  What, do you really suppose that in war that each side is supposed to "keep it even" and allow their troops/civilians to die at an equal rate as their enemy?  I hate to school you on the history of warfare, but no nation in the recorded history of mankind has ever followed such a logic.  So I fail to see how Israel protecting their people and hence, having fewer casualties has anything to do with the conflict.  Once again, Hamas readily admits that they place civilians in the middle of combat and bombing zones for the purpose of them dying. 

Just as a reminder:

Hamas MP Fathi Hammad said:

The enemies of Allah do not know that the Palestinain people has developed its methods of death and death-seeking.  For the Palestinian people, death has become an industry, at which women excel, and so do all the people living in this land.  The elderly excel at this, and so do the mujahideen and the children.

This is why they have formed human shields of the women, the children, the elderly, and the mujahideen, in order to challenge the Zionist bombing machine.  It is as if they were saying to the Zionist enemy:

"We desire death like you desire life."

 

So, I hope we are finally clear on why the Palestinian death toll is always disproportionantly high.  They do it on purpose to gain the sympathy of the West.  Once again, don't call me a liar, as it is not me saying this, but the Palestinians who proudly admit this.

Lastly, Bush is gone in 2-weeks, so impeachment is kind of a null point now, don't ya' think?
