Palestinian child abuse

Hamaswithkids1Take a look at Getty Images' pool photos for today to understand why so many Palestinian children have been killed during armed conflict -- they are free to go right up to the legitimate IDF targets, armed men and weaponry: Photo 1, Photo 2

See the concerned parents attending to their precious children. . .no wonder 9 year olds are picking photos for their "marytr posters" Sick sick sick.

Why does this happen? Abu is already in office-can he not FIND thevweapons used to kill Jews?


See the proud terrorists. . .oh, wait, they are masked-ooops. Masked and hiding among children as they seek to kill children-how the hell can anyone support the "cause" of these monsters?

I have to go be frustrated and furious somewhere else.

Incriminating evidence.

These photos must be distributed among those who claim that the IDF targets children / civilians.

I wonder if Gideon Levi at Haaretz would do an article on this....

I agree with Amit. I think Honest Reporting should respond to the Guardian's riposte using the second photo. Anyone WITHOUT an agenda can clearly see how the rocket launcher would be used against a settlement, Sederot or the IDF, an IDF tank will then pinpoint the source of the rocket, launch a shell at the source and in the meantime, the terrorists have turned to run (knowing full well what was coming next) and the local children in their naivety (and/or bravado), wander into the path of the shell.

Harvey in the second picture I believe thats a remotely launched rocket. It still does have the same effect. The rocket is launched (and possibly hit someone), the chirldren are "martyred" from the rockets back blast, and Israel attacks where the rocket was launched, which obviously from that picture shows a civilian area.

And even if lets say the rocket explodes prematurely during launch. The terror groups can still blame Israel, because they will say it was a tank shell or rocket from a helicopter.

"killed six Palestinians... and another four"
No point complaining to Getty since at least the photo keywords include "terrorist" but this type of wording is the kind u use for civilians.


Although it wasn't explicitly claimed that they were civilians, when the words "gunmen/soldiers/militants" are NOT mentioned, people's automatic assumption is that the men were just palestinian.

Most people would be surprised to learn that news agencies play tricks like this to make them believe gunmen are innocent civilians. The 'clever' part of it all is that since the word "civilian" does not appear, the news agencies could claim that they didn't technically lie. They merely deliberately mislead.

I am so disturbed by these pictures-why do their children mean so little to them? In my opinion, the is the most damning proof that this war is about killing Jews NOT a homeland fortheir people.

If it is true that they are merely after autonomy, statehood, and a future-why do they fail to protect theiur children by encouraging them to live? Why do they place them in harm's way? Because killing Jews is more important than their own children?

I just do not understand this, to allow your children to be used in this manner is wrong.

palistinians love their children just as much as any other person! children are children, i would be among them too!we are curious, !, terrorists are fighting for their land not fighting for no reason

whoa.

Elaine, I am a mother of 3 sons under 5, and we live in a safe country: Australia. I do not let my children wander alone on the streets of our safe suburb, because I fear for their safety - now in a war zone, I would not let them out of my sight!! and I would move as far away from the military action as possible: my children are far too precious to risk!!! What mother would let their children play around live ammunition? I certainly wouldnt. I think it's disgusting how they would risk their children's lives like this!

so, what exactly says love in these pictures? ZThe guns, the masked men-the rocket launcher? I stand by my comments-they hate Jews more than they love their children-otherwise they would not be raising them to become human bombs-in order to kill Jewish children.
