IDF soldiers killed by 10 yr. old boy

Hugh Hewitt - clip from Fox News | 4-08-02 | JH147

Hugh Hewitt just played a clip of Netanyahu saying that the IDF soldiers were killed by a 10-yr. old suicide bomber. Clip was from Fox News - this is unbelievable and I couldn't find a post of it anywhere.

We are all overlookig something very unusual about Netanyahu's statement.

How would Netanyahu or for that matter the IDF know the age of a child from a refuge camp that had just blown himself to shreads.

I can buy "young" or "8 to 12" but exactly 10 years old is a guess on somebody's part especially since the IDF soldiers who had the closest look are now dead.

I would never "honor" the use of children in any of these situations.

Maybe I'm just too soft-hearted or naive, but I have two boys the age of most of the suicide bombers, as well as a daughter who is almost 16 and I cannot imagine ever EVER allowing them to go out and blow themselves up -- and to try to take innocents with them -- yet the parents seem proud and almost revel in the fact that their children did this -- it's sickening -- but I guess that Saudi and Iraqi money goes a long way to ease their pain, eh ??

Yeh, and the founding fathers were murders, too. War is War. Israel was born of war and will always be under attack. Maybe that's what God wants?

He was probably making an approximation from what soldiers on the scene said. Some of them who survived said the Palestinians were using suicide bombers, so there were witnesses.

nope... mom and dad are already applying for dollars to bagdad and saudi arabia... 25 big gs from one and 5 gs from the other... That is how big N knows... the parents are proud and have announced their intentions to apply for their "assistance" !!!

That is how it was found out... the age and the fact that they get extra dollar for the quantity of israeli soldiers and citizens they kill... its like freaking dialing for dollars...

I do not know what the price per dead israeli is... but I do know they get more for the quantity and quality of the suicide kills.

How many times have we honored the Hungarian kids who fought against the Soviets? I really don't remember anyone complaining about the use of "kids" then.

BS. Show me ONE reference to Hungarians or others using ten year old suicide bombers. Just one.

The IDF needs to clean house......

Good point. Fifteen years ago when my boys were 10 years old I could probably guess the age of a child pretty accurately.

I'm certain many of the IDF are fathers with young children.

If Reno's tanks and soldiers were bulldozing your street just because you were Mcvey's [sic] neighbor...

These people aren't simply "McVeigh's neighbors", and the IDF seems to be trying very hard to keep civilian casualties to a minimum...but many in Jenin and the other "refugee camps" are activly aiding and abetting the terrorists, hiding them, storing weapons and explosives, etc.

Where did you hear this???

[Travis McGee]

Those pictures tell it all.

[Robert_Paulson2]

funny you see a moral equivalency between the american revolution and the palestinian nail bombings. not funny. sick.

[Robert_Paulson2]

go read the saudi embassy in washington's home pages...

[xm177e2]

You mean you're guessing they're applying, you don't know so for a fact.

[JH147]

And, by the way, even if it was a "kid", at least he was going after military troops. How many times have we honored kids who would climb a Nazi tank with a Molotov cocktail? How many times have we honored the Hungarian kids who fought against the Soviets? I really don't remember anyone complaining about the use of "kids" then.

This is what I'm talking about. So many people think this way.

Comparing the IDF's mission to eliminate terrorism with Nazi fascism and Soviet communism.

They are simply not the same thing.

I'm just saying considering the source, we have every reason to believe Bibi. IOW, this isn't impeached42 speaking, here. See what I mean?

[miamimark]

Netanyehu NEVER would tell a lie knowingly. It's not MY bloodlust... I have NONE. It's just YOU screaming it whenever palistinians get caught doing something beyond humanity.

I'm not the one that's SCREAMING. For God's sakes, man, look at YOUR posts. Not TOO biased, eh? Bibi is a politician...Read my lips-ALL politicians lie. Some get caught more often than others, that's all. Bibi's problem is he thinks he's next. Maybe? Maybe not-

[Robert_Paulson2]

see post #183

yes travis... and the "moral equivalence" apologetic squad has arrived to do damage control.

[dennisw]

No. The suicide bomber was the trigger for the trap.

One early report was that a bomb factory exploded. Maybe the kid triggered a bomb factory to blow.

The IDF soldiers probably thought they were rescuing the kid.

Possible

Death worshipping maniacs

Definitely, the Jihad is relentless.

If you consider the Palistinians moral equivalents of the 56ers, well, your morality is not of one who loves freedom.
