Hey, are the Palestinians still firing at the IDF from trucks painted with great big red crosses? Anything to say about that?

This is the International Red Cross and they have long been a leftist organ. Unfortunately, the American Red Cross is not likely far behind.

Did it blast Hamas for using Gaza civilians as human shields, hoping to drive up the casualty count for propaganda purposes? Didn’t think so.

" It accused Israel of failing to meet obligations to care for the wounded in areas of combat."

That's Hamas' area of responsibility!

I stopped donating to the Red Cross when I learned what they were doing with the 9/11 charity money.

This just reaffirms I made the right decision then, and I won’t ever change my mind about it.

Where in hell was the Red Cross when Hamas was firing those freakin rockets AT ISRAEL?

"The International Committee of the Red Cross[ which is a muslim infested organization] said Thursday it had discovered “shocking” scenes — including small children next to their mothers’ corpses".

Funny how this "international Muslim committee of the red cross" is always completely silent when we see Islam sponsored genocide- raped, mutilated women with their breasts cut off, with their dead, raped babies beside them, or their kids heads stuck on poles outside their homes- in other countries around the world.

They already were. The Israeli Red Star-of-David is not affiliated with the International Red Cross because the Arab Red Crescent organizations refuse to work with them. I haven't given a dime to the cowards in years. I wish I had the gallon+ of blood I gave them back.

So what does the Red Cross suggest Israel do when another country is bombing them? Sit and talk with them? War is hell and bad things happen. Those that start the war need to realize this. I would guess that Hamas doesn’t care.

You mean the Red Crescent?

I thought the Red Cross was not welcome on Muslim-occupied territory?

Those "international red cross" ambulances have been caught being used by Hamas to move rockets and weapons around. That organization has NO credibility at all. (except with jew hating MSM)

The red cross has always been anti-Jewish.

This is the same red cross that stole funds from 9/11 victims.

Is or has the Red Cross ever been outraged by the attacks on Israel? --> shrug... never heard they were outraged...

Red Cross = anti-semitic like 99% of the other libs.

The ICRC has about as much friendliness toward Israel as your average Third World UN “diplomat.” The ICRC refuses to work with the Israeli version of the “Red Cross” (Mogen David Adom) because the Red Crescent societies of various Muslim countries won’t allow it. The ICRC is just another bunch of Geneva douchewaffles that would raise glasses of champagne if they saw pictures of Hamas bulldozers piling Israeli civilian corpses onto bonfires.

I would guess (and be close to 100% right) that if there are "dead mothers with dead babies" lying next to them, that they were killed and arranged in that position by Hamas for the "international red cross" and Robert fisk type media to find.

Hamas and Jew hating Robert Fisk types will go to great lengths to produce ugly images in an attempt to make Israel look like the bad guy.

That's your responsibility, your obligation.

The Pali's, the islamists, are sworn and dedicated to Israel's destruction and eventually your servitude. If you want to help them do so, go ahead.

Sadly, both are stocked full of self-dealers interested only in their own inflated paychecks.

Predictable results when the illegitimate combatants DISREGARD THE RULES OF WAR:

1. Not wearing officially recognized uniforms
2. Hiding among civilian population
3. Using hospitals, schools and religious facilities as staging areas.

The Red Cross is no more legitimate a plaintiff for “Geneva Convention violations” on behalf of the Palestinian people than Hamas is a signer or practitioner of the convention.

This is more of the tired rope-a-dope scatology from the U.N. tools of global socialism. Strange, the Red Cross makes no complaint of Hamas. Birds of a feather… hate Jews together. The Red Cross is just another useless organization, hopelessly infested with lefty limp-wrist demagogues, and their propaganda.

I put give as much veracity to pronouncements by the International Red Cross as I would attach to those made by Al Qaeda.
