I am simply saying what they don't want to acknowledge about Palestinians. |

User ID: 51415 United States 06/22/2006 10:48 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | OK - then why not present balanced info like the post above? Not everyone reading this, read and saw the same threads you did today. Right now, you're coming off as a zionist spammer which obviously is not your intention.

wtng2fish (OP) User ID: 108960 United States 06/22/2006 10:53 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | 74179, Palestinian casualties are higher because Palestinan militants hide and carry out their terrorism among innocent civilians. So much for your ability to see things in perspective. If there have been civilian casualties among Palestinians, the militants are the ones at fault and responsible for those deaths because they placed those people in harms way by trying to hide near them. Geez people like you should be banned from jury duty because you are incapable of recognizing any semblance of dispensing justice. Talk about shallow minded!!! :jesusvomit: |

My conversation has been to mostly 2 individuals who kep posting anti-Israeli stuff without any balance. I just don't feel like going into detail as to where I am coming from for everyone to avoid misunderstandings. Call it finger exhaustion. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 74179 United States 06/22/2006 10:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The overwhelming majority of Palestinian children have been killed in the Occupied Territories when members of the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) responded to demonstrations and stone-throwing incidents with excessive and disproportionate use of force, and as a result of the IDFs reckless shooting, shelling and aerial bombardments of residential areas. Palestinian children have also been killed as bystanders during Israels extrajudicial execution of targeted activists, or were killed when their homes were demolished. Others died because they were denied access to medical care by the IDF. At least three Palestinian children have been killed by armed Israeli settlers in the Occupied Territories.

wtng2fish (OP) User ID: 108960 United States 06/22/2006 11:07 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Armed Palestinian groups, for their part, do not seek to hide the fact that they target civilians, including children, and generally claim responsibility for their attacks. In many cases, including in most of the attacks which killed a large number of children, the perpetrators of the attacks killed themselves (in suicide attacks) or were killed by the IDF during or shortly after the attack. In other cases those who carried out the attacks managed to escape. Some were reportedly subsequently killed or arrested by Israeli security forces and others are still at large. There has been a consistent failure on the part of the PA to take the necessary steps to arrest those responsible for killing Israeli children and other civilians. The PA have repeatedly claimed that the operational capacity of their security forces has been greatly impaired by the IDFs systematic bombing and destruction of their headquarters and installations, the targeting of its security personnel, and the restrictions imposed on their movements.(34) They have also argued that if the Israeli security forces, who have superior intelligence and equipment and have total freedom of movement, cannot locate and arrest wanted Palestinians it is unreasonable to expect the Palestinian security forces to be able to...
