How can Israel be blamed for civilian deaths?

Question

When Muslim suicide bombers kill civilians on purpose, how can they be so outraged when Israelis kill civilians only by accident? Is it true that Hezbo plants it's military targets inside civilian populations making reluctant martyrs out of it's own people?

Answer 1

In the last 6 years, 760 Israeli civilians have been killed by Palestinians. 3000+ Palestinian civilians have been killed by Israelis in that time period. The Israeli army does not care if it kills civilians or individuals who have attacked Israel.

Answer 2

Israel does everything reasonable to minimize civilian casualties.

Hezbollah and Hamas do everything they can to maximize civilian casualties on both sides.

If Arab families don't like their houses being destroyed they should think twice about storing missiles for Hamas or Hezbollah in them.

Answer 3

Two wrongs don't make one right! Besides, you shouldn't equate muslim suicide bombers with muslims in general. Also, not only muslim civillians were killed and not only muslims were outraged about it. Additionally, not only military targets were attacked, but also infrastructure in general.

Answer 4

Because Israel murders civilians on a regular basis.

It is irrelevant what anyone else does.

Answer 5

Isreal kill civilians by accident....that is the most funny thing i read here...you want us to belivie that really...you have to know that the strong army of Israel do not fight armies in Palestin and Lebonoe...you know why...Palestin has no army and lebonoe has so weak semall army...what they fight are just resistance groubs armed by simple weapens....
ok you see Israel do not kill civilians..so do no get angry when some muslims find the suicide bombers are great hero.....what a perfect world !!!

The latest human rights violations by Israel have surpassed many of
its previous violations in cruelty and in injustice. Israel bombed
and destroyed the electricity system for 1.2 million Gaza residents,
inflicting a collective punishment on the entire population. But
what is new in it?

They have deprived millions of Palestinians of their dignity, honor
and even their right to live as decent human beings. It is obvious
that Israel believes in a philosophy of "might makes right." It has
no morality and no religion and no decency in its dealings with
Palestinians. Israel's supporters in America tell others that their
state stands for justice because their religion dictates so. But
when it comes to giving Palestinians the simple right to live as
decent human beings, their state adopts measures that would be
considered cruel even by those who stand for the rights of dogs,
cats and rats in America and many European countries. An ardent
supporter of Israel recently devoted his talk show to the plight of
street dogs.

It is clear that when the supporters of Israel talk of justice, they
mean justice for its own citizens and not for those considered
outsiders.

They argue that Israel must be viewed as a privileged state because
it has a special status in the eyes of God.

They suggest that the quest of Israel for more and more land must be
seen as part of a divine plan that must be supported by all means.

For this reason some 40 percent of churches in the United States
devote their weekly services to seeking support for the state of
Israel as part of the fulfillment of divine prophecy.

To Israel and its majority of citizens, Palestinians deserve the
curse of God because they have been opposed to their state. The
Palestinians in the views of most Israeli intellectuals and law-
makers do not deserve a homeland, rather they deserve to be sent
away to different Arab states. Even though many claim to be the
champions of human rights and democracy, they have rarely raised
their voices about the human rights of Palestinians. On the
contrary, they have opposed the democratically elected government
of Israel, tooth and nail.

Israel is indulging in these antihuman acts because it knows that
the world lacks the political will to stand for justice. The
apartheid state knows that the world's supreme power is backing it
in every sense of the term. The Israeli elites know that many in the
Bush Administration admire Israel for creating conducive conditions
for the apocalypse.

Obviously, Israel has a license to kill whomsoever it wants to kill
and it has a right to destroy every thing Palestinian freely. The
killing and destruction are justified by religious arguments and
historical anecdotes.

This is arrogance in its worst form. How can we respond to this
inhumanity of the state of Israel? One of the ways is to document
their every act of injustice.

A day will certainly come when the world will read these stories and
hold Israelis responsible for their war crimes, as before them the
Nazis and others have been punished for the wrongdoing they
committed.

Today the truth is squelched by spin and lies, much of that fog
being spewed by mainstream and right-wing media outlets. The media
networks do not tell us the truth because their interests are in
concert with the interests of Israel.

But someday the truth will come out. That will be the day when the
coming generations Israel and her supporters come to question their
predecessors for not speaking up and for hiding the truth.

That will be the day when they will denounce their past and hang
their heads in shame. Let us hope that when that day comes, the
Palestinians do not turn it into a day of revenge}}
