FoxNews was saying that among the victims, no men of fighting age were found, which suggests these might be families of Hezbollah fighters.
Is it just me, or is it strange that so many children were in that building? Families had been warned by radio and leaflets for two or three days in a row, and the town had already been under siege for days. An Israeli spokesman said most people had already evacuated. Anyone would protect their kids and get them out of the area first. Reports I've heard range from 21 to perhaps 30 children in that bomb shelter basement.
As terribly tragic as these 57 deaths are, supposedly about 100 people are killed every day in Iraq. But this event is being played to the hilt by world leaders, Hezbollah and the media as though it were the most shocking disaster of our time. They're all jumping on the bandwagon as a new reason to condemn Israel. So it really seems to be more about an outlet for anger towards Israel than the tragedy itself.
I'm sure Hezbollah sees it as a victory for their cause. The old 'victim' strategy right out of the Cindy Sheehan handbook: play the victim, then when you become the victim, you 'win'.
Apparently some of us posted some of this same info at the same time.
WRONG! They teach their kids to become jihadis for allah at a very young age. Watch this and be informed......

There are no reports to support that claim. The worst month I can find, which includes Iraqi security forces, civilians and coalition troops, was August 2005. The average that month was 60.7 deaths/day. Please stop repeating the propaganda.

The old 'victim' strategy right out of the Cindy Sheehan handbook:
The bit@h in the ditch does not have the brain cells to write a handbook. She has been fed the 'strategy' by her handlers. The victim strategy is not new and it certainly was not developed by her. Please watch the video at the link provided above. It is the strategy of the terrorists.
