I don't often read this particular paper. Have they printed similar stories about dead Jewish children killed by PA terrorists? Or do they conserve ink by skipping those?

In spite of what the Old Media wants us to believe, Israel did the right and moral thing when they attacked.

Well, golly, guys...maybe the Jews should show you some pictures of children killed in hotel lobbies, supermarkets and buses....and then ask you if you think these are IDF combatants. It's a fair question.

It was the only way to get to the Sheik who himself had targeted Jewish children. What goes around, comes around.

That said, no one rejoices over the death of children. (Unless you want to count Palestinian rejoicing at every suicide bombing and 9-11.)

I'm glad the Palestinians care about their children killed by Israelis. They need to start showing that they care about their children. We can only hope they start to care about their children killed when dressed as Hamas-cide bombers, and all the Israeli children they kill as well. When they no longer use their children as human bombs, then, and only then, will I believe that they actually do care about their children, and not just using this highly unusual situation to gain some political advantage. Until then, IMHO they don't care at all about their children. Otherwise they wouldn't allow then to live in such conditions, to be used as human bombs. The Palestinian people need to revolt against their own government. They're better off with Israel than the corrupt thugs that run the PA and associated terrorist organs.

Surprise, surprise.

Gee whiz. People actually get killed and maimed in a war.

You mean it's not like in the movies?

You must be kidding. The way I see it, this eliminated a big source of present and future terrorists. I long ago lost sympathy for the Arabs in general and Palistinians in particular.

Hip-hip-hooray! (Hopefully, someday Israel and the United States will bomb the terrorists' propaganda organs in Europe and elsewhere so I can really cheer myself hoarse.)

The Israeli Prime Minister, Ariel Sharon, disagrees with you:

Mr Sharon said he and the Defence Minister, Binyamin Ben-Eliezer, would never have approved the air strike against a block of flats in Gaza City had they known innocent people were at risk.

"Israel did not know that there were civilians in Shehadeh's house," he reportedly told a closed-door meeting of his senior aides. "Had it known this, it would have found another way to hit him."

The lesson here is DON'T LIVE WITH OR NEAR A TERRORIST! One down, many more to go. The nest is getting smaller. Fewer kids to grow up and carry bombs into town to kill more innocent people.

If a bee stings you, you don't just step on that one. You kill the entire nest or else they just keep coming after you again and again.....

A search I did showed that Justin Huggler (the author) writes only pro-Palestinian or anti-Israel pieces.

Check posts #10, #11, #12, and #14 of this thread, just for a few examples to the contrary.

So I take it that Hamas has come out four-square against the killing of children. I guess that would be progress.

If they could kill every member of hamas right now and in the process kill 200 civilians as well they would still be saving lives in the long run.

Regardless of Sharon's latest response, the Israeli attack was a justifiable act of war. The loss of innocent lives, especially children, is always a tragedy. But it was essential to kill or capture this man.

During WWII American bombs killed thousands of innocents. A sad but necessary cost of freedom and security.

In response to the Morgue staff asking if those children were terrorists, I can only say that the way they are being taught to hate Jews from birth: Yes, sir, lying there is a future terrorist trained from birth to hate and kill Jews. You should be disgusted at yourselves, not Israel. What a nihilistic society you've created for yourselves.
