Did Israel Execute Jihadists in Gaza?
The Daily Beast ^ | 09.07.14 | Jesse Rosenfeld

GAZA CITY, Gaza—More than a month after The Daily Beast reported evidence suggesting Israeli soldiers carried out the summary execution of six men amid fierce combat in late July, there are no signs that the Israeli government is investigating the matter. It has declined to respond to repeated inquiries. The independent organizations Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International, which the Israeli authorities have barred from Gaza, are unable to follow up in detail. And a United Nations investigation of abuses on both sides is barely under way.

The Daily Beast has continued its own investigation, however. And the picture that’s emerging tends to confirm the story of a summary execution, on the one hand, while undermining subsequent reports by some in the international press who suggest the dead men, left to rot in the bathroom of a battered house, were merely innocent bystanders. Instead, they appear to have been hardened guerrilla fighters from Islamic Jihad who were trying to ambush Israeli soldiers when they themselves were caught, captured, herded into an abandoned bathroom and gunned down in an incident that, if confirmed, would be a war crime

When the balloon goes up, and the blood starts to flow, the VERY FIRST targets MUST be the 'journalists'.

Followed closely, by ACLU lawyers.

A lot of words in that story. Chance of rain tomorrow.

I must say it is taking an awful long time with the Ft Hood jihadist.

This is why there is no peace. Because HAMAS perfectly knows that any mistake the Israelies will make will be met with wrath for the libtard world opinion.

The libtard world opinion is basically giving HAMAS all it needs in terms of blessing to send children suicide bombers.

Human rights only solve the symptoms. It is a denazification that we need. The human toll is not as important.

If true, the Jihadists met their maker in a most appropriate spot.

Jihadists cheerfully shoot pregnant Israeli women and children when given the opportunity. Then they’re treated like heroes by the Palie community if they get released. Shoot them like the rabid dogs they are.

“Amid fierce combat”......Guess the writer has never been in combat. If they were shooting at or trying to kill ME, they are going to die before I do if I have the opportunity.

Then again, the “liberls” don’t go into combat.

“Shocking. Horrible. An abomination. So, anybody’s cat do anything cute lately?”

So I’m outside and I walk away from my car for a couple of minutes, leaving the door open (I was cleaning it out). I go back into the car and this flash of black SHOOTS OUT and heads away. Seems the neighbor’s cat snuck into the car while I was away, and didn’t want to be around when I came back to continue cleaning it. Lots more cool stories where that came from.

As to the dead terrorists, oh well.

Boy, the vile Peter Beinart has managed to assemble quite a crew of self-hating Jews over at the Beast.

My God, this is so terrible that I fear I’ll lose sleep over this for weeks! How could those IDF soldiers KILL their mortal enemy in a war?......a war crime this is not. Being lined up against a wall and shot is too NICE for HAMAS prisoners.

So it did. Of course, with Jihadis around, the MOOO might be a war bride.
