I'm curious how educated the American populace is about the nation they send the most amount of foreign aid to. Israel has a population of about 6 million and receives more money from the US in aid, than any other nation on the planet.

I'd like to point out that contrary to "AreWeThereYet?" answer implying that these children were being used as human shields, the website I originally gave:

http://www.rememberthesechildren.org/remember2000.html

Gives the details of all deaths.

Furthermore, if an Israeli is killed in the conflict, the probability that it's a child killed is 12%. If an Palestinian is killed, the probability that the victim is a child is 22%.

"youre failing to grasp the concept of the jihadis using children as HUMAN SHIELDS and accomplices!"

Because anecdotal evidence isn't the same as statistical evidence.

Again, you can see the circumstances of all the deaths listed here:

http://www.rememberthesechildren.org/remember2000.html
http://www.rememberthesechildren.org/remember2001.html

http://www.rememberthesechildren.org/remember2005.html
http://www.rememberthesechildren.org/remember2006.html
http://www.rememberthesechildren.org/remember2007.html

Please point out the children there that were used as human shields if you would like to use that as the explanation as to why Israeli forces murder 7 times the number of Palestinian children as Palestinian militants murder Israeli children.

"That is an outright lie and your UTube clip has nothing to do with it. Where is your support for this lie?"

It's not an outright lie.

Every death is documented in detail. You can look above for every single death. But you answered the question best - you have no idea about what is going on, which is very interesting.

I had to comment on this:

"Will Arabs ever leave Israel's lands, or are they incapable of learning? "

I think Arabs have a better claim on the land since they had been living on it for the last 1000 years, and the people calling themselves Jews are mainly ancestors of Europe and Asia, whose only link to the property is that their great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great grandparents MIGHT have lived there before a civilization that has been extinct for over 1,500 years and whose language is dead, kicked them out of it.

get educated,
youre failing to grasp the concept of the jihadis using children as HUMAN SHIELDS and accomplices!

terrorists commit war crimes by using children as human shields

is it the fault of the israelis for trying to shoot the terrorists, if a child dies because he was being used as a human shield, just like their parents encourage them to do?!

more education- egypt recieves more aid than israel, just so you know

how is the koolaid?
why do you hate jews?
why do you sympathize with terrorists and throatcutters?
I thought liberals were all about peace?


paleostinian children are routinely indoctrinated with textbooks in school, and their state run media to live a life in order to kill jews and non muslims, if you cannot see reality, then no amount of mind altering drugs can help you

Do you realize that UTube is not a legitimate or reliable "News" source? Did you also know that the so-called "Palestinians" have been offered reasonable consessions towards peaceful co-existance with Israel as well as statehood? Funny, how they continue to turn their backs on their own people and the prospects of peace and statehood. Did you know also that prior to the six day war in 1967 (when Israel was viciously attacked without provocation) the world had never heard of a "Palestinian?" Wonder why that is? Maybe perhaps because there was no such thing?! They came from Syria, Jordan and Egypt. Here's an historical news flash for you. Prior to the U.N.'s giving the Jewish people a "homeland," the region in question was known as Transjordan and was a colony of G.Britain. And, prior to 1928, the land was virtually uninhabitted, save for a few wayward nomads. It was mostly a malaria infested swamp. The Jews moved in, drained off the swamp and made something of the land -- and only THEN did any of the local Arabs take note. Still, they lived (for the most part) in peace. It wasn't until oil was discovered that the Arabs decided they REALLY wanted it for their very own. That the British overseers would give the nod of a slightly less than tacit approval to the Arabs over the Jews is still anyones guess, but they did and the place has been a bloody mess ever since. Arafat and the boys wrote a tennet swearing the complete and total destruction of Israel. Regardless of whatever agreements they've publically made towards a cease fire ageement with Israel, they have NEVER kept their word and have continued a low level violence campaign against Israel. It wasn't so many years ago that same campaign was directed at U.S. citizens.
But then, you're in a complete and total state of denial of any facts and truths presented.
So, I leave you with one parting thought. Hamas just the other day announced an end to the latest cease fire agreement with Israel. The world is well aware that both Egypt and Syria have been funneling weapons into the various "camps." Given that the U.S. Speaker of The House and several Senators recently decided t take it upon themselves to do the Secretary of State's job and made unauthorized trips to "negotiate" with Syria, I can't help but wonder why the Hamas would send the Israelis an open invitation to come in and kick their sorry butts. Could it be that Syria has sent them something a little less "conventional" in the way of weaponry? And what of the U.S. "representatives" who when to Syria? Doesn't look to good for the morons, err, I mean SoH or her felow Senators. Does it. I can't help but wonder and marvel, had Newt gone and done Madeline's job as Nancyhas Condi's, could we have avoided 9/11, Afghanistan and Iraq altogether? What a novel idea!

I will support our Israeli friends and allies until the bitter end. Israel is the only functioning democracy in the Middle East, and is a bulwark against Islamic terror. Israel wants nothing more than peace. It pulled out of Gaza, and would be happy to pull out of Judea and Samaria if the Palestinians showed themselves interested in peace. Unfortunately, Hamas still refuses to recognize Israel's right to exist much less its right to defend itself.

Frankly, dead Palestinian kids simply mean fewer future terrorists who are committed to pushing the Jews into the sea.

I too have a link. Would you please now rise...

And do you know that every muslim there is being educated to blow up 30 Israelies?

Just look at palastinian media watch - which monitors material taught in schools there.

For the greater good, may the ratio only increase.

I guess they don't read Harper's either. Or Haaretz.

The following articles describe killing children for sport or because they wander too near an Israeli position. Amazing, that the "Islamists" are accused of spreading hate. What kind of hate does it take to kill a child for whatever reason?

All this does is serve to DE-SENSITIZE the public and give them a seared conscience. If you want to continue forcing this down their throats it will eventually become an everyday common occurrence. People will just shrug it off and you will have to get bigger, better, harder-hitting, much more graphic than this already is, footage to reach them. You want apathy, keep building that wall!!

Will Arabs ever leave Israel's lands, or are they incapable of learning?

Here is the truth:

From 1517-1917 Turkey's Ottoman Empire controlled a vast Arab empire, a portion of which is today Lebanon, Syria, and Palestine. During World War I (1914-1918), Turkey supported Germany. When Germany was defeated, so were the Turks. In 1916 control of the southern portion of their Ottoman Empire was "mandated" to France and Britain under the Sykes-Picot Agreement, which divided the Arab region into zones of influence. Lebanon and Syria were assigned (mandated) to France... and "Palestine" (today's Jordan, Israel and "West Bank") was mandated to Great Britain. Because no other peoples had ever established a national homeland in "Palestine" since the Jews had done it 2,000 years before, the British "looked favorably" upon the creation of a Jewish National Homeland throughout ALL of Palestine. The Jews had already begun mass immigration into Palestine in the 1880's in an effort to rid the land of swamps and malaria and prepare for the rebirth of Israel. This Jewish effort to revitalize the land attracted an equally large immigration of Arabs from neighboring areas who were drawn by employment opportunities and healthier living conditions. There was never any attempt to "rid" the area of what few Arabs there or those Arab masses that immigrated into this area along with the Jews!

In 1923, the British divided the "Palestine" portion of the Ottoman Empire into two administrative districts. Jews would be permitted only west of the Jordan river. In effect, the British had "chopped off" 75% of the originally proposed Jewish Palestinian homeland to form an Arab Palestinian nation called Trans-Jordan (meaning "across the Jordan River"). This territory east of the Jordan River was given to Emir Abdullah (from Hejaz, now Saudi Arabia) who was not even an Arab-"Palestinian!" This portion of Palestine was renamed Trans-Jordan. Trans-Jordan and would again be renamed "Jordan" in 1946. In other words, the eastern 3/4 of Palestine would be renamed TWICE, in effect, erasing all connection to the name "Palestine!" However, the bottom line is that the Palestinian Arabs had THEIR "Arab Palestinian" homeland. The remaining 25% of Palestine (now WEST of the Jordan River) was to be the Jewish Palestinian homeland. However, sharing was not part of the Arab psychological makeup then nor now.

Encouraged and incited by growing Arab nationalism throughout the Middle East, the Arabs of that small remaining Palestinian territory west of the Jordan River launched never-ending murderous attacks upon the Jewish Palestinians in an effort to drive them out. Most terrifying were the Hebron massacres of 1929 and later during the 1936-39 "Arab Revolt." The British at first tried to maintain order but soon (due to the large oil deposits being discovered throughout the Arab Middle East) turned a blind eye. It became painfully clear to the Palestinian Jews that they must fight the Arabs AND drive out the British.

The Palestinian Jews were forced to form an organized defense against the Arabs Palestinians... thus was formed the Hagana, the beginnings of the Israeli Defense Forces [IDF]. There was also a Jewish underground called the Irgun led by Menachem Begin (who later became Prime Minister of Israel). Besides fighting the Arabs, the Irgun was instrumental in driving out the pro-Arab British. Finally in 1947 the British had enough and turned the Palestine matter over to the United Nations.

The 1947 U.N. Resolution 181 partition plan was to divide the remaining 25% of Palestine into a Jewish Palestinian State and a SECOND Arab Palestinian State (Trans-Jordan being the first) based upon population concentrations. The Jewish Palestinians accepted... the Arab Palestinians rejected. The Arabs still wanted ALL of Palestine... both east AND west of the Jordan River.

Our Palestinian Cousins started the '48 war, and in so doing released the warlike appetites of a nation of survivors, a people with no place to run, who had repressed their rage for millennia, and had now earned full title to it!

On May 14, 1948 the "Palestinian" Jews finally declared their own State of Israel and became "Israelis." On the next day, seven neighboring Arab armies... Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Yemen... invaded Israel. Most of the Arabs living within the boundaries of the newly declared "ISRAEL" were encouraged to leave by the invading Arab armies to facilitate the slaughter of the Jews and were promised to be given all Jewish property after the victorious Arab armies won the war. The truth is that 70% of the Arab Palestinians who left in 1948 -- perhaps 300,000 to 400,000 of them -- never saw an Israeli soldier! They did not flee because they feared Jewish thugs, but because of a rational and reasonable calculus: the Jews will be exterminated; we will get out of the way while that messy and dangerous business goes forward, and we will return afterwards to reclaim our homes, and to inherit those nice Jewish properties as well.

They guessed wrong; and the Arab Palestinians are still tortured by the residual shame of their flight. Their shame is so great because in their eyes running from Jews was like running from women. So much for the blatant lie about Jews throwing out all the [Palestinian] Arabs! The remaining 30% either (1) saw for themselves that these Jews would fight and die for their new nation and decided to pack up and leave or (2) were driven off the land as a normal consequence of war.

When the 19 month war ended, Israel survived despite a 1% loss of its entire population! Those Arabs who did not flee became today's Israeli-Arab citizens. Those who fled became the seeds of the first wave of "Palestinian Arab refugees."

The Arab propagandists and apologists almost never mentioned that in 1948, Arab armies launched a war against a one-day-old Israel. Instead they focus on the main consequence of that war: the creation of Arab refugees, stating that Israel "short of genocide" expelled 800,000 of them. This not only disagrees with UN estimates of a bit over 400,000 refugees but also ignores the fact that most of the Arabs/Palestinians were encouraged to leave by the Arab World itself!
