I was confused. A different boy was killed. Thanks for correcting me, and my apologies to those I confused.
This is what Muhammad said and his followers have emulated ever since. The Jews have had to learn from the Muslims on hostage taking and today they faked out Hamas by rounding up top Hamas leaders on the West Bank for the kidnappings by Hamas leaders in Gaza. Totally surprised these Muhammad worshipers
"WAR IS DECEIT"
War is deceit, said the Islamic Prophet Muhammad, and some of his contemporary followers have been putting his words into practice with increasing industry lately:
Palestinian Media Watch reports that Palestinian Authority TV has been repeatedly broadcasting a falsified video clip of the events surrounding the deaths of seven family members on the Gaza beach on Friday. In an attempt to blame Israel's navy for the deaths, PA TV took unrelated video of an Israeli missile boat firing at Gaza earlier in the day and edited them into the scenes, creating the impression [of] Israeli responsibility .
Sacrifice your soul for all eternity - in the name of religion!
Beautiful post Phil.
How can a mathematical ratio be unconscionable? 4 to 1 plums over pears. 4 to 1 dogs over cats. Here you have an ongoing war in which one side's losses are 4 to 1 compared to the other side's losses. How can that be unconscionable? It can mean one side is winning and one side is losing, but that's not unconscionable. It's war.
If your point is that palestinians are being slaughtered, and therefore the actions of the Israelis are unconscionable, I would ask this: Perhaps more palestinians are being killed because more palestinians are shooting, blowing up bombs, and otherwise threatening the lives of Israelis. In which case it's not unconsionable. It's self-defense.
Furthermore, if your point is that yes this is war, but the Israelis are waging it in an unbalanced manner - killing many more palestinians that is necessary - then you must offer up some evidence of situations where killing fewer palistinians would have achieved the level of security sought by the Israelis doing the killing. Some would argue that given the length of this war, the Israelis haven't killed enough people fast enough, and therefore the ratio should be higher.
None of this enters the realm of the unconscionable.
All the talent emigrates. What's left? The Capone types and the untouchables.
It is unconscionable and proof that Israel is not really fighting back.
It should be a ratio of 10000:1
On the subject of ratios, would you happen to have the ratio Israel v Arab, for: deliberate
Murder in Pizza Parlors
Murder on Civilian Buses
Murder by an intended shot to the head of an infant
Murder after kidnapping
Murder of people sitting down to dinner
Murder of people sitting down to a bat mitzvah
Murder of people sitting down to a religious observance
Murder everywhere and anywhere.
One other statistic if you will: the ratio of healthy brain cells to rotted brain cells in Western supporters of the "Palestinian" animals?
Seems like it.
