Human rights groups claim 45% of those killed by Israeli Bombings in Lebanon are children.What do you THINK?

Question

Nice one ISRAEL you must feel real proud of yourselves.Is this the way to destroy Hezbollah or to create more enemies.STOP THE WAR NOW!!!!!

Answer 1

Well, since all muslims or arabs or lebanese are considered terrorist (just to keep world simple for our first time voters), they must be thinking that the best way to fight terrorism, is to kill them by their roots.. the children!

Of course it is disgusting.. if this isn't proof how biased and two faced and unconditional western governments are, I don't know what is. Over 800 civilians killed.. women, children, many in their sleep.

Any regrets, any apologies? no.. Israel simply states they won't quit util they achieve their goals.. (so basically they'll have to kill all lebanese, because if there is 1 left, I'm sure they'll join Hezbollah.. what other option is their to stand up against this current right wing fundamentalist isralian government?)

Terrorism is not about suicide bombs.. it's worse when it can be done with a press of a button in the comfort of your chair.. of an apache, with sattelite images and laser guided missles, which are so accurate that you have no excuse for why you hit such civilian targets except by intention, or indifference.

And Israelians marginalizing Human Rights Watch reports, are the same ones who marginalize the United Nations and marginalize the criminal court (for war crimes) in The Hague, Netherlands.. and so basically don't only think they can play by their own rules in the middle east, but in the entire world.

And guess who ensures that Israel can get away with all this.. and guess who gives Israel the excuse to fight 'preemptive strikes' and kill anybody they want and simply call them terrorists, with no legal investigation (since Israel disqualifies all international organizations that would, UN, The Hague, HRW, etc.) ... yeah.. USA.

Why the world is not fond of you, you ask?
Why negotiations don't work, you ask?
Why there is terrorism, you ask?
Why has it only been getting worse since war was declared on it you ask?

a hand full of people do something and world economy suffers for years and Iraq is turned into a pile of blood, 2 millitary get kidnapped and a few days later 800 civilians have been killed.

Are we dealing with people who use their force to extinguish fires, or create them?

In response to some here, there is no indication that Hezbollah uses civilians as human shields.. and even if they were, doesn't mean you can still shoot the hostages and then blame those who took them hostage.. or what?

Answer 2

facts:
Israel didn't start the war. Why don't you get Hezbollah to stop sending rockets to Israel's residential areas?
That Human Rights report is biased. How come there is no mention of Hezbollah's rockets?
Almost every report of deaths in Lebanon have been exaggerated as the numbers reported a few days later is often smaller that the initial forecast.
The Israelis give a warning before they attack; Hezbollah have not done so at all.

Answer 3

If Israel was a democratic country as well as America's only friend in the Middle East, shouldn't they be the ones spreading democracy not by force and call of battle but by example. I have never saw Israel standing out in the Middle East as a perfect example in any other country besides the US. (Well, obviously, the American Media is maj. Jewish) NOT RACIST BUT BY FACT. Israel is not a democratic and is no need to be America's potential ally because they started the conflicts and bomb innocent Lebanese and Palestinians and still don't give a damn. PEOPLE, it makes sense why the Arab world is so hating to the Jews because the Israelis are Zionists (not Jews) are calling innocents and those who defend their ways democratically terrorists. Democracy means the right to live in your home, freedom of speech, freedom of religion as well as freedom of press. That is what the Palestinians as well as the Maj. of the Middle East have been doing but calling those that are doing this are called "Islamic Fanatics" or "Terrorist" because they are against Israel. Israel can have its land the Jews lived in but shouldn't be given soldiers, and the highest technological devices to Israel. It is called being unfair. Lebanon is democratic so why couldn't America give their share to Lebanon. America shoudn't be only siding with the Jews but it will never change until something happens. I just hope for an event or a solution to the Middle East Crisis and to other regions of the world in PEACE....

Answer 4

As the average family here has 2 children, if any bombing destroyed the houses the average number of children killed would be 25% of the causalities, therefore as households are larger in Lebanon the 45% number would be about right. Since when did this bother the Israeli terrorists anyway?

Answer 5

It can never be acceptable for either side in a conflict to bomb, kill and maim. What did these youngsters do to deserve it? God alone knows if there can be an answer to that......
During the first few days of bombings a young Lebanese girl on her way to meet a doctor from India, who was going to correct her newly re-opened cleft pallette, was killed in the car she was traveling in. The same bomb blitz destroyed her family house some miles away.
Were her family involved in the conflict? No, not then. But you can bet anything you like that they are now!
She could have been any child, caught up in conflict anywhere in the world....But she wasn't. She was the niece of someone I know and respect; so I mourn her more than children I don't know.
Her story could be that of any of us, caught in the wrong place at the wrong time.
We cannot bring any of the children back; but neither can we be silenced if we choose not to be. Let your voices roar over the sound of bombs so that soon enough they will cease.

Answer 6

I wish that this conflict did not exist. I am a father and would have me heart ripped out if I had a child lost in a conflict like this.
HOWEVER.. why do we not deplore bombs going off in Israeli markets and shopping malls. Do we yell NICE ONE when the various Islamic murderers blow up a bus or car bomb? Do you realize that the terrorists are intentionally storing weapons in apartments, right there next to the bassinet? Kevin Sites interviewed a Hezbollah terrorists that pulled out his guns from the closet, and laid them on the bed next to the baby. And you wonder why children get killed? It is a weapon, and an vile PR move to operate OUT of civilian areas, They then can yell what a horror that innocents are killed and injured.

Answer 7

I hear where you are coming from, but you really need to listen to the news. Hezbollah started it by kidnapping two Israeli soulders and it was Hezbollah that fiered the first shot. Yes it has now gone a bit over board and too many peopl, not just children are being killed.

Answer 8

I think it is sad that Hezbollah and Lebanese people are not moving the children out of harm's way, simply for propaganda purposes.

It's too bad you, the human rights groups or the media do not seem to care about the people that the terrorists kill in Israel.

Keep going, Israel, until every last pig-spawned Hezbollah scum is dead.

Answer 9

During the Iran/Iraq war the Iranian fanatics had Children Martyr Brigades that marched through minefields to detonate the mines. Obviously the same kind of thinking has been used to say that it is noble and right for Hezbollah and Hamas terrorists to hide behind woman and children in Gaza and Lebanon.

Answer 10

I think that Israel views that as a failure.
Hezbollah think that dead Israeli children is a success.

Shows how the different sides view the value of life.

Why does Hezbollah hide behind these children anyway?
