Children dismembered in Israeli attack on refugees
Children dismembered in Israeli attack on refugees : The bloodshed sparked international outrage. But despite the outcry, Israel fired three more missiles from helicopters last night, witnesses said.

Medics said more than 50 people were wounded in the besieged Rafah camp yesterday and that the casualties included children and teenagers dismembered by the blasts.

The bloodshed sparked international outrage. But despite the outcry, Israel fired three more missiles from helicopters last night, witnesses said.

Israeli military sources said the missiles were intended to repel gunmen who had shot at advancing troops. Scores of Palestinians fled homes in the path of the raid. They were clutching bedclothes and food.

During the afternoon barrage a marching crowd was sent fleeing in terror, some dragging bloodied comrades and others carrying wounded children in their arms.

The firing erupted as marchers surged towards the Tel Sultan neighbourhood, focal point of Israel's sweep into Rafah, to demand that humanitarian aid be allowed in without restrictions. (snip)

The new Israeli tourism minister not only admits that
Israel ethnically cleansed the Palestinians in 1948,
but wants Israel to do it all over again.The old one the late-Israeli Tourist Minister,
Rechavam Zeevi, said: "The Jewish teachings are
racist, and that is a good thing."


"This is for you, Ariel"

2. When you shed a tear for a dismembered Israeli child, we'll talk.
Until then, how do you feel about the Sudan and the genocidal policy in place there?

Wow. That's a lot of silence. I guess it's okay for Arabs to do it, but never Jews.

And the Sudanese farmers never blew up any Arab schoolbuses. Yet you feel nothing for them?

What can that possibly say?

5. This isn't the Sudan forum.
Did you just stipulate that Israel is pursuing a genocidal
policy? Did you just try to justify that by pointing to the
genocide in Darfur? If it helps I will stipulate that Israel
is not behaving as badly as what is occurring in Darfur, but
you might want to think about what you are claiming to be "better"
than.

7. Your post...
Does not do one damned thing to address the fact of dismembered Palestinian children. Not one. It just seeks to obfuscate and deflect.How sad.

Surely you can do better than that? Or perhaps not.

Merrily we go down the long road of dismembered children...not a clue in our heads.
