(IsraelNN.com) All air force operations such as the counter-terrorism aerial strikes over Gaza last night are filmed by a drone pilotless aircraft.
After a day of PA accusations and condemnations from the international community, the IDF revealed the unedited film of last night’s so-called “massacre” in Gaza. The film shows without a doubt that when both sets of missiles were fired at a vehicle occupied by Hamas terrorists [who were on their way to an attack], there were no more than 2-3 persons in the area.
The film shows that after the firing of the first missile, the vehicle was still being driven. The second missile was fired over 1 minute later, when there were a maximum of 2-3 persons on the scene. The film clearly shows that the pilot(s) waited to permit a passing car to clear the area to avoid unnecessary injury. Only about 2 minutes later did the first PA ambulance arrive accompanied by the masses – the victims of the so-called “Israeli massacre”.
Both Israeli and PA sources report at least seven Hamas terrorists were killed. The army adds a maximum of ten persons were killed, admitting with sorrow that as many as three innocent persons may have been killed in the offensive.
During operation “Defensive Shield” in Jenin, the PA was quick to yell of an “Israeli massacre”, working to bring the UN and international community down on Israel. Investigations and testimonies in that case also revealed the “massacre” was nothing more than the PA propaganda machine hard at work.
I find it interesting that the "Palestinians," a.k.a. local Arabs, refer to their towns as "camps." These cities of people are not makeshift groupings of temporary shelters or tents. The word "camp," that the presstitutes continuously use, conjures up a mental image of a temporary ramshackle affair. Interesting wordsmithing, but not accurate. The local Arabs live in houses in a town and have for a few generations.
The fact that the "Palestinians" Arab ancestors were driven out after their Arab cousins decided to eradicate the Jews is simply the cause and effect relationship of war.
In war, the victor dictates the way things go for the vanquished. In our decline into a feminized, socialist society, we suddenly feel the need to make sure everyone's feelings don't get hurt and that no one rises above anyone else. Thousands of years of human history argue that this is unrealistic at best.
You're full of crap. With your logic, the arabs destroying the WTC in New York were justified, because they're fighting for what they believe is their own country. After all, the palis are mostly blowing up things in jewish communities on jewish land (the jews have historical ties and a continuous presence that pre-date the nomadic arabs that recently trespassed these lands). So, if the arabs cross our border and blow up the WTC and kill innocent babies, that's okay in your eyes. But not okay if we fight back by going after the culprits?
I'm putting it in a context that matches yours. The palis sneak across the border from Gaza and the West Bank and murder defense-less innocent babies and women. If the freakin palis would stop butchering innocents across the border then there would be peace!
a camp whose only reason for existance is the fact theat the Palestinian families were driven from their homes, at gun point, on the other side of Gaza.
There have been a total of two Documented cases of the Haganah or Irgun expelling Palestinians. In both cases these were in towns along the Tel-Aviv Jerusalem highway that were being used as military forts by the Arab armies. I would note that Arabs were explicitly asked to stay in official government communiques and radio announcements as well as those by mayors in Haifa, Safed, Beer Sheba, and Tel Aviv.
99% of the Palestinians who left (btw most were temporary immigrants from other Arab countries anyway) left at the behest of the Arab armies. If they are in camps it is because the Arab countries have kept them their. More Jews were expelled from Arab countries than Arabs who left Israel. Despite being a small and poor country, Istael took in about 650,000 refugees from Arab countries. The Arab countries, with all their landmass and oil wealth have used the Palestinians as a weapon with UN help.
The more I hear about the whole Israel/ Palestinian mess, the more I am seeing not one group of terrorists, but two seperate nations of terrorists at eachothers' throats.
If your previous sentence is any indication, you are missing many facts and accepting Arab press releases as fact.
In America, we mostly only hear about Palestinians killing innocent Israelis and Israelis killing terrorists, but you have to wonder how accurate that is for several reasons- first, it's coming from the U.S. And Israeli Media (two peas in a pod.)
What Media are you listining to? The American media ignore teh majoprity of terrorist attacks on Jews and report every Arab casualty figure from Arab press releases. The leftist Israeli press is little better.
Second, Why the substantial numbers of dead palestinian children- something like 300 in the last two years? I have a hard time seeing children throwing rocks as worthy of missle retaliation, don't you?
1. Rocks can and do kill, especially when accompanies by molotov cocktails.
2. It is a common tactic for Palestinian gunmen to shoot from behind stone throwing kids. The Arabs who invariably are the camera crews for international media, ignore the gunmen.
3. The missle attacks were made towards the Leadership of Islamic Jihad, in response to bombings and shooting.
Third, and most telling, is the fact that the Palestinians are truly only fighting for what they believe is their own country (the fact that the Brits set up a country of foreigners in the middle of their existing country never sat well with them... I wonder if it would be too bold to compare this to the plight of Native Americans?)
1. They are not native. In 617, Jews were still a plurality of the population. The Arabs did not invade until 631CE. Some natives.
2. More Arabs than Jews immigrated to Palestine between 1890 and 1946 thanks to British policy.
3. 3/4ths of Palestine on the East Bank of the Jordan River was set aside for the Arabs. Jews were expelled from this land. It is Jordan.
With all due respect, were have you been getting your facts?
Nope, no comparison. The Brits didn't set up Israel nor did they steal the land from Native Americans. Do you have more disinformation to send out?
You are seriously mis-informed. The number of inaccuracies in your post are to numerous to detail
There never has been a "Palestine", and there are not "two nations".
Palestinians exclusively target innocent people. The Israelies exclusivly target terrorists (who live among innocent people, in an effort to make the Israelies look bad when they're forced to take them out).
When the palestinians stop the violence, all violence stops. The proof that the palistinians are the source of the evil.
Many Arabs are citizens of Israel, and serve in Israeli government positions. While in the PA areas, Jews are not allowed, and are killed immediatly.
There is NO moral equivalence between the two.
As for the incicent last night, I can only imagine that the bomb the palistinians were carrying went off as the people were removing the bodies from the car. You ever think of that.
They ain't Texas rangers!
IAF Killed At Least "Eight Terrorists" Yesterday.
No, I don't stop and wonder why, I know.
They are TERRORISTS!!!
Does that ring a bell with you?
