    Yet more proof of the crimes commited against the people of Gaza.

    5. Israel frequently launches air strikes at around sunset when families are most likely to be together, indoors, and breaking their Ramadan fasts.

    I don't know if it is that simple. I think the israeli state is conflicted over some of the settlements. The settlers tend to be religious zealots, who beieve they have a God given right to the land.
    Many Israelis are secular and are uncomfortable and embarrassed about these settlements but are trumped when the settlers play the religion card. The settlers use the argument 'you were given a place to live when you came here, but you want to deny us our rights as Jews?'. It's abhorrent but I can understand how the ordinary Isreali finds it such a difficult issue.
    I don't think the majority of people on either side in this conflict are vile human beings. I do think that they have become immune to the suffering of the other side through years and years of conflict - as we saw in N.I.
    What annoys me the most is the way other countries support each side - paying for the bloodshed from afar. Disgusting.

    I don't understand how anyone can be "trumped" when anyone else plays the religion card. That's something I'll never get my head around. We don't tolerate honour killings just because some religious fundamentalists claim they are mandated, nor do we tolerate domestic violence, forced marriage, animal sacrifice etc in the name of religion - in fact, the only atrocity we do tolerate in the name of religion is, ironically, the barbaric mutilation of infant boys in judaism. If that same religion is tolerated as a "trump card" to justify violations of international law, then the question seriously needs to be asked as to why Judaism is elevated to a status above other religions in which barbarism with religious "justification" is tolerated where with other religions it is not.

    I say this from an international point of view, not an Israeli domestic one. My arguments are aimed at foreigners who support settlement construction and Western governments which refuse to do anything about it.

    Not sure if its been posted yet as I'm not 100% aware of all the reasons why this is happening. But this 16 year old girl is tweeting from Gaza https://twitter.com/Farah_Gazan. Pretty shocking to read.

    Air strikes deep inside Gaza are conducted with the intention of removing Hamas' ability to launch rocket attacks against Israel. The operation to identify and close tunnels aims to remove Hamas' ability to covertly insert fighters/militants/terrorists (whatever you want to call them) into Israel with the intention of killing or kidnapping Israeli civilians. The threat of cross border attacks is very real (see 2011 attacks on wiki) and of great concern to the Israeli government and population.

    Israel didn't fully comprehend the extent of the tunnel network and the seriousness of the threat they posed until they initially entered Gaza however, and as such the operation to destroy them has increased in size and intensity far quicker than anybody really expected.

    Israel are scum, any country that deliberately murders innocent children deserve their children murdered

    And when does that end, when we're all dead?

    Genius.

    Understandable to be angry, but let's not fall into a similar line of thought to the one that has led to us being in this horrific situation in the first place.

    Israels justification for killing children is what exactly? Is it on ok for Israel to murder children on the street and expect no response just because they have US backing for this slaughter? Who will stand up for the murder of children the UN? Ya right it seems Israel only understand murder so they deserve to be murdered


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,035 ✭✭✭Wild_Dogger


    Just out of nowhere an apartment block just got wiped out .......... what looks to be one of the tallest building in the landscape

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,377 ✭✭✭Warper

    I'd rather die myself than murder an innocent child.

    This is truly horrific viewing. How can anyone justify this.

    I can't believe you're rationalizing this.

    This is what Israel is doing in front of the world, I can't believe a so called modern state could do this to fellow humans murdering innocent children

    Unbelievable footage ..........

    http://rt.com/on-air/gaza-operation-israel-military/

    I dunno but I reckon they could have killed a thousand people tonight alone

    Looks like an apartment block when it's lit up by missiles. Not too far from the reporters hotel base.

    and your answer to all this is to kill their children, would you grow up.

    What type of world are living in where an entire people gets massacred on live TV and nothing is done?

    Can't disagree there. But still, how could you ask for this to be carried out on the innocent in Israel?

    I can't put into words how awful this is to watch. I know I won't sleep tonight, that's for sure.

    Harrowing viewing.

    Yup Aqsa radio tower but it looks like the tower is on top of an apartment block.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,377 ✭✭✭Warper


    What type of a world do we live in where we watch an entire people get massacred live on TV? WHY DOESN'T SOMEONE STOP THIS SLAUGHTER?

    Israel doesnt care, theyve killed 1000+, and they`ve seen the world is too scared to stand up to them, or stop them, shows who really has all the power in world tbh

    They`ll do as much as they want, when Iraq broke 2 UN resolutions, America, UK and Nato, went and bombed them to the stone age in process killing 2mill + civilians, and intentionally causing a civil war to kill even more people

    Israel since its illegal founding has broken 68 UN resolutions, but not a peep from anyone

    Shows the hypocrisy of the world, 1 world police force all buddies who will commit atrocities all over middle east, but its ok, as their lives dont matter

    But if a middle eastern country or any other poorer region steps out of line, like bullies they all jump together to stamp them out

    You can denie it if people want, but more or less thats what the world has become

    So this tower/apartment block that's getting shelled - i presume they (the citizens of Gaza) were fore-warned about this?
