Ping.
Evil b*stards, plain and simple.
Maybe it's like that Family Circus cartoon strip.

The salient facts will undoubtedly be ignored by all Leftists, their media pals, and every "human rights" organization that kowtows to terrorists.
It should be noted that it is a common practice of Palestinian terrorists to send children to both test the security arrrangements in outposts and at times even place explosive charges.
The facts may be ignored, but the Israelis did the right thing in this case.
I mean, this girl went strolling away from town and up this random hillside where there just *happened* to be an Israeli outpost?
I wonder if the parents are satisfied or not. Knowing their mindset, they probably think they made a martyr out of their daughter.
Imagine if a Christian strapped a bomb to their kid to go blow up an abortion clinic?? You'd never hear the end of it.
She was taking the scenic route.
Say it ain't so...
Well... Um... uh... Obviously the Jooz TRICKED her into going that way!
(Yeah... That's it. That's the ticket.)

Yonif,
It doesn't make a damn bit of difference and hasn't for years.
Israel has chosen not to fight and as such will be Muslim Palestine shortly.

Q [Palestinian general]: Mr. Secretary, You talked about countries that were trying to produce weapons of mass destruction. You talked about Iraq and you talked about Iran and North Korea. I have a question, a direct question to you. What are you doing with Israel? As far as Israel is concerned, Israel has more atomic weapons in the region than any other country. Why do you remain silent in regard to Israel? I think its important to answer this question because this has to do with the world, the strategy that we are pursuing today. I think that if the position towards Israel were different then the situation would be different in the Near East, and this is a great problem.
Rumsfeld: You know the answer before I give it, Im sure. The world knows the answer. We take the world like you find it; and Israel is a small state with a small population. Its a democracy and it exists in a neighborhood that in many -- over a period of time has opined from time to time that theyd prefer it not be there and theyd like it to be put in the sea. And Israel has opined that it would prefer not to get put in the sea, and as a result, over a period of decades, it has arranged itself so it hasnt been put in the sea.
Thank you all very much.
Er ... that wasnt the issue.
Sure she was in the wrong place, but she was also an unarmed 11-year-old girl killed by a soldier who was not threatened by her. The IDF needs to quit defending the guy who killed her and determine if in fact this met their 'rules of engagement'.
Other soldiers there say it was not the right response, and noted that the girl was apparently scared and confused. This was a very unfortunate incident and trying to justify it is IMHO inferior response to determining how to avoid it (while maintaining needed security).
This is like those cases we are finding in Iraq. We have been charging some soldiers with murder in cases where they killed Iraqi civilians outside the rules of engagement.
In one case, soldiers threw an Iraqi in a river and he drowned.
can't you see?? can't you see zionists!! it's a shortcut-praise allah
Don't confuse them with facts, their minds are already made up.
