I would have thought that sorrow at the death of children regardless of who they belonged to, is a given amongst civilized peoples.

It is not a given.

What I find aobnoxious is your selective portrayal of the victims.

It's not a selective portrayal of victims, but a deliberate wish to show compassion for the children. If you think that's propaganda, then it says more about you than anything else.

...the collection of images follow the path of the MSM and are designed to damage Israel's right to defend itself...

I agree that this incident is harmful to the Israeli and American/UK cause, but it is only because we fear the price of war. We want to wage it "surgically," when such is never truly possible. We want to turn our faces from the carnage. I wonder where is the Israel (and U.S. and U.K.) of old. Where is the Israel who struck fear in the hearts of her enemies by rolling tanks over them?

There is no such thing as a clean war, and our Islamofacists enemies have no compunction about waging the dirtiest type of warfare. Israel (and the U.S.-UK) are struggling because we think we can wage a clean war.

However, having said all that, this thread is NOT about those topics, which can be saved for other threads and other days. This thread is about an appeal for compassion for the innocents. Period.

You seem totally incapable of getting that point, a fact which, as I mentioned, says more about you than anything else.

Did the U.S. media ever show German and Japanese civilian casualties of Allied operations while the war was still going on?

No it isn't. It's an appeal for compassion for a selected set of images. A true appeal for compassion for the innocents would have included innocents from the atrocity of 9/ll, Beslan, Madrid, Bali and the Israeli victims of suicide/homicide bombings...etc etc.

I know you mean well, but the road of good intentions is paved with pitfalls for the unwary. By posting the images of only ONE set of victims you carry the water for Hez'b'allah...IMO.

Omer Pesachov, 5 years old, killed with his grandmother last week when a Hezbollah rocket hit their house in Meron.

Do you remember this photo? Probably not, the Israeli media did not make a soap opera out of it.
