As the death toll of Operation Protective Edge rises, the deaths of children are firmly in the spotlight—and rightly so. It pains all reasonable people to hear of children dying as the consequence of war. Hamas and its supporters display gruesome pictures of dead and wounded children in order to gain sympathy for their portrait of Israel as the villain intent on killing Palestinians. In response, Israel cites the need to stop Hamas from firing thousands of rockets at its own children, who are being forced to live in bomb shelters, as well as the need to eliminate the tunnels that Hamas dug into Israel in order to carry out terror attacks against Israelis. One tunnel opening was found underneath an Israeli kindergarten.
But who built those tunnels? The answer is Hamas, of course—using some of the same children who are now trapped under fire in Gaza.
The Institute for Palestine Studies published a detailed report on Gaza’s Tunnel Phenomenon in the summer of 2012. It reported that tunnel construction in Gaza has resulted in a large number of child deaths.
“At least 160 children have been killed in the tunnels, according to Hamas officials”
Paid for by US taxpayers through Lois Lerner and
Obama-the-UndocumentedproTerrorist.
that is another disgusting part
Obama and his ilk are so damned concerned about the “children” at our southern borders, but won’t do a freakin’ thing to help in the demise of those killing children in Gaza, namely Hamas.
It doesn’t even take captain Obvious to see where his true loyalties lie, and it’s not with America.
Must be a muslim thing.
Thanks for posting this article. It’s the first one I’ve seen here that actually documents the deaths of the 160 Pali minors and how they happened. Great source.
Unfortunately, it is likely to get worse.
