Israel has always held a special position in the world by way of its stranglehold on the US Senate and media. The US says what Israel wants it to say and does what Israel wants it to do.\n\nIf Israel decides to keep its attacks on Gaza quiet, there's not much you or I can do about it. It will be kept quiet. Even in this forum, comments against Israel are suppressed. Just read the previous posts.\n\nBesides, Israeli soldiers murdering innocent women & children in cold blood is nothing new. They've been doing it for 50 years. I've seen footage of an Israeli soldier taking careful aim at a young man running for his life and then firing live rounds. He took 3 full seconds to aim. You do not aim for 3 seconds when you are firing in self-defense. He missed, then he laughed with another soldier who was standing beside him. They looked like they were hunting ducks or something. That's the Zionist mentality. Non-Jews are considered less than human.\n\nOthers have questioned why some say Israeli deaths are acceptable while Palestinian deaths aren't. The difference is that Israelis are occupiers. The land that is now Israel was taken by force from Palestinians. If a burglar breaks into your house and you kill him, it's called self defense. It's the same thing. Israel is the burglar. Palestine is the house.

After a bit of snooping I was unable to find any news regarding increased violence or other discriminatory actions vs. women's groups in the United States. \n\nAccording to Amnesty International, discrimination against women still exists in 36 countries.  I'll include in my sources a link to a recent example of this in Iran.\n\nHope that helps,\nArmus

He is a peacemaker. The criminal was Yasser Arafat. I'd be interested in hearing why those people who called Sharon a criminal think that way.

Cos it seems they are allowed to.No one ever blames them for that.U've  heard about  yesterday's  attack on the beach in Gaza.No big news agency reported it cos it seems it wasn't important enough.All u see on tv is how "poor" Israelis are victims,even when they kill civilians,It's like saying that it's ok to kill people there as long as they are not Israelis.

Of course...nothing new for Israel...\nSo many times Israel got away with murder because US has vetoed every single sanctions against it...So it is because of the support of US and the silence of UN...This is their idea of justice...\nWhile Israel's crimes are called "self defense",the Palestinians fighting for liberty will be called "terrorists"...because they don't have the full support of the most powerful country in the world:USA...\nNo one will ever accuse Israel of deliberately killing civilians.even if they do... Actually the excuse was "technical error".but of course Mr Olmert already told us that those kinds of errors "may happen " in the future...

There are also 1 million Isaelis married to Palestinians. They are probably happy to be ignored by the hatemongers.

Israelis attack to unarmed people in Palestine to running out them of their country.\nIf you search on the net and watching documentary media, you will find a lot of guilty acts Israelis are doing, including: Murdering Children and Women in their houses, destroying Palestinian buildings, attack to hospitals, etc.\n\nPalestinians don't have a job opportunity in Palestine where they and their forefathers birth and life. Even Israelis don't let Palestinians live in their country freely, \n\nAll of life are precious. But Israelis don't cares to facts. They are racists and Zionists.\nThey pretend to they are Nazism's victims while they are killing innocent people in Palestine everyday (Exactly after WWII until now).\n\nHitler said: "Some lifes worth more than other lifes". Just look at Israelis. They had very good teacher.\n\nYou should know, US is supporting Israel government as well, So they did/do everything which they want. Watch some Bush speeches, he is proud to supporting Israel, of course Israelis support him and some other politicians. They have common benefits.\n\nNow, they are pretend to didn't kill people in that damn beach. Of course they didn't, "Hamas" killed his people...! or some aliens from space did it.\n\nAll of Israelis are armed, actually the most of them are militias. They have already killed people in Buses, Schools, Streets and this time in the beach. They are spreading their activities.\nIf Palestinians kill an Israeli soldier for revenge, the world should cry for them...!

There have always been the crimes you listed. People have just been informed of resources and that the crimes are reportable. It just appears as if there is more crime. BUT actually-the population of the world does increase.

It's not nearly as newsworthy.\n\nBut also, Yahoo! only lists the dead soldiers.  Not the dead civilians.

oh please. I'm so tired of "Israel defending herself" as opposed to "Palestine defending herself." They've been fighting for decades! They'll be fighting for decades to come. Israel claims they were given the "Promised Land" which just so happens to be land that the Palestinians inhabit. I'm tired of all of this Promised Land" nonsense just as I am tired of hearing about the so-called "Chosen People"..ALL of God's children are Chosen. All of them. Not just Jews! How do we know the land was promised anyway? Were there other "promises" made AFTER this so-called promise? I just read an article which said that 6 million Jews were killed in the Holocaust. The same article said that 6 million OR MORE other people were killed also (other "undesirables, who WERE NOT Jewish!)\nyet we never hear about them. I used to feel a lot of sympathy for Jews. Now I don't. They are NOT the only people who have undergone horrors! \nAnd they are not a democracy. \nThey don't know who they are.

I just love these "head in the sand" answers regarding the US.\nI understand those that do not reside here but those that do who bash this country seem to forget all those that died in order to give them the freedom to bash this country.\n\nIran is a huge threat folks--like it or not. Israel is not.\nThe religious quest that Muslim coountrys support via acts of terror is real and not about to go away any time soon.\n\nThe next time we have an attack on our shores--those same bashers will continue to make excuses for the violence and blame their country the US and Israel while never considering that there is never an excuse for killing innocent men, woman and children.

I've posted the story I think your refering to for those who aren't aware of recent developements.\n\nHowever, a U.S. official close to the investigation said at least one of the soldiers, all assigned to the 502nd Infantry Regiment, has admitted his role and been arrested. Two soldiers from the same regiment were slain this month when they were kidnapped at a checkpoint near Youssifiyah. (1)\n\nThe confesson has nothing to do with violations of the Geneva Convention.  It does have to do with a military presence in another country and those who would abuse or misuse there power.  The sad thing is it reflects on us as a nation and there will come a time when the military won't be able to justify these things as the minority.  This story is horrific in the sense that we were outraged over those two soliders and now we come to find out it could be in retaliation for other crimes.  The investigation is pending and one can hope it's a mistake  but I trust the military will deal with parties if found guilty.

Israel is not to blame Muslims' assisted by most of the world press, will twist the story. Anyone who deliberately enters a battle zone to protect combatabants on 1 side is asking to get shot. I think they deserve Darwin awards.

i'll only emphasis on one thing, what is hidden is always more than that discovered, if it was proven 24 where slaughtered then the actual number must be in thousands, this war from the start is unjustified and is not about democracy, terrorism or the such, it's about money and interests, period.\nmay the new generations make a change and heal the wounds this one inflicted on the entire planet !

Well... hopefully that was a typo... because I didn't see any hermaphrodite crying for it's father. (Girl... he...). But yeah, I'm just being a jerkwad.\n\nNo, I didn't see it, actually. But It'd be hard to stomache the torment the poor child must be feeling (I assume the father was either dying or dead... as a result of clashes between opposing forces). :-(\n\nThe reason the violence doesn't stop and the reason it doesn't heavily impact outside families (esp. American families, because they can readily see it on the news networks) is because no one attributes themselves to the feelings and thoughts of the afflicted. If you put yourself in that child's shoes, you'd die as a person inside. The pain and instability inside would be so much that you'd literally break down. But I have to give them (the children near Gaza and Israel) a lot of kudos. They can be decaying on the inside, but still keep an "honorable" facade on the outside. Could it be because they're afraid that the rebels *want* to see them cry? If so... fuc*ing sadists, if you ask me.\n\nI want to hug that child now... really badly. :-(

Israel's genocide of Palestinians is literally countless, on a daily basis backed by US & UK. But things have proved  to be changing since the Lebanon war, not only because there is change in balance as military power and that Zionist targets are in range now although that's been the reason the recent war ended. But the main important issue is that public conscience is waking up thanks to a counterbalancing flow of information against the corporate media.\nPlease keep on asking just for the sake of truth, although there are many people whose hearts have already turned to stone.

Probably. These are people that attack Israelis ( and defend themselves ) with their wives holding babies standing next to them so that Israeli troops will be detered from firing back. Understand that Palestinians do not value women ( except to further their political and military goals ) or female babies, so they use them as shields and to hopefully avoid return fire from the Israelis  - sorry, but I thought everyone knew this stuff.
