UN: 257 Palestinian children killed in Gaza

news.yahoo.com

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip – Tiny bodies lying side by side wrapped in white burial shrouds. The cherubic face of a dead preschooler sticking up from the rubble of her home. A man cradling a wounded boy in a chaotic emergency room after Israel shelled a U.N. school.

Children, who make up more than half of crowded Gaza's 1.4 million people, are the most defenseless victims of the war between Israel and Hamas. The Israeli army has unleashed unprecedented force in its campaign against Hamas militants, who have been taking cover among civilians.

A photo of 4-year-old Kaukab Al Dayah, just her bloodied head sticking out from the rubble of her home, covered many front pages in the Arab world Wednesday.

F-16 versus toddler, who is going to lose that one I wonder? At some point the US needs to stop protecting Isreal. This has really gotten out of hand.

The wall them off, crowd them into smaller and smaller areas, and then drop in the bombs, artillery, and attack chopters. This has gone from a supposed self defence exersize to out and out genocide.

Sure sure, cleaned up by 21st century standards, but at some point, you will need to list the West bank and Gaza with concentration camps of days ago.

so many lives cut short
find it hard to belive that there will be people that will defend this
even harder if they are parents them selves.

Shame on you for such blatant demogogery.

Hamas is using hopsitals and schools to hide troops and weapons. The UN says so.

Hammas is putting CIVILIANS on the roof tops to keep the bombers away. That means they know Israel WILL TRY TO AVOID civilians.

Please stop this fear mongering.

I really don't understand how people can be so numb to it all.

So hamas is the one bombing civilians - or atleast paving the way for israel to do so. were you there to verify all this??? or are your just listening to the msm?

This is sickening... when will it stop and as you say...when will America stop turning a blind eye?

The images are awful at the moment...

to quote myself from the other night..

"I have to say that whilst watching the news for about 6 hours solid last night and into the wee hours of this morning, it really..really hit me and i was overcome with emotion... i just couldn't contain myself and was quite upset for a while....dead kid after dead kid being loaded into wagons and cars.... "


This has got to stop...

I was speaking out against US and UK for the Iraq invasion... hell i even protested .... and if i could have got to london on the 4th (of this month 09), i would have been there man.

The UN slammed the attacks on that school ans said that no rockets were fired from there but from streets away...

Please...

Blah blah blah

What fear mongering. The IDF is not going after civilians in my neighborhood nor yours. Unless you ar ein the West bank right now what exactly do you have to fear? Sure the moral and ethical implications of not only endorsing but embracing genocide.

How exactly has Isreal gone out of its way 750+ dead and counting?

If this is Isreal avoiding civilian casulties then Im Golda Mier

Typical
1) Wall them off
2) cut off evauation routes
3) Crowd them into increasing levels of population density
4) Destroy civilian infrastructure
5) Keep out those pesky Reporters. Who wants a lookie loo when you are slaughtering civilians
6) Bomb UN workders (remember the Liberty)
7) Claim innocence.
8) make holaucaust references
9) Lable anybody critical of the genocide an "Anti Semite"

How about you spare us the same old tired propaganda comming from AIPAC, and the IDF

Nothing explains away than many dead kids NOTHING

Near the building.... how near?

It was a UN run school... the UN slammed the attacks??

What more do you want?
