Most of these 'civilian's were terrorists of Hamas and the 2 kids that died were either sent in to collect the missle launchers or shouldnt have been hanging around them in the 1st place (not to blame the victims), who died alongside a terrorist commander. What is the ratio of scum: innocents that died the other day? 11:2 at best? I'll take that any day. Tell the truth, Abbas.

Has he called for the palestinian Arabs to stop firing Qassam rockets at Israeli children? Has he called for Hamas terrorists to stop having palestinian Arab children retrieve rocket launchers for so they won't be "massacred?"

The rockets keep hitting Sderot and do not stop. Israel has to take action because Abbas does nothing. Abbas will only respond to IDF strikes on Gaza. I am glad the IDF is striking back. They need to strike harder and deeper. Hamas targets civilians in Sderot so the IDF can strike civilians throughout Gaza.

Why do they lie to the world? They know that with modern media and reporters eveyrwhere, the truth will come out. Anyone with a brain can see how Hamas treats their people and how palestinian children are raised... indoctrination, brainwashing, hatred towards jews, violence in the streets etc. Abbas is a retired terrorist and will never trully look for peace.

Get out of my country!

first when Israel trageted to kill 2 kids. second by creating a cover up story of kids retrieving laucncher, which no one would believe, i.e a bad version of israwood. Sorry, tri-erring for hitting 5$ launcher with 500$ missile

Jews are not permitted to fight or defend themselves under the processed no peace plan. Jews,especially citizens in Sderot are only permitted to die and must remain docile and quiet as they did when they were hereded to the death camps. Only then will the Plaestinian people achieve their much desired peace. Olmert ,you must appease us some more. We Palestinian's like you much better weak and cowardly and in retreat.

Where and who are the "Civilians"? Everyone knows it is Hamas "shock troops" Why are children used to do post Rocket launching duties? Abbas and his Hamas colleagues are trying to draw the EU etc into helping Hamas open the Gaza entry points . If Israelis thinks that Abbas and his Gang are "partners" they must go first to a Psychiatrist. When those gangsters are killed it is a "massace". It is a divine intervention .

If this isnt Child Abuse-tell me what is!!! It is Crime to use Child Soldiers -but Hamas doesnt care .Just as they dont care about sending Katys into Israeli Kindergarten&Creches!!!

If the Palestinian terrorists wouldn't use kids at the launching sites for exactly the purpose of hoping they'd get killed during IDF attacks, none of these kids would have been harmed.

And the kassam rockets, shootings, stabbings and other attacks are justified ? I don't think the PA is aware of what is going in in Gaza, and when people are killed by IDF action they're screaming to the media for halt of israeli action. If they don't attack there won't be any retaliation and no deaths. But the PA don't wan't to see this.

Mr. Abbas - again you Palestinaians are trying to make Israel look the cause and not the victim. You yourself have been a victim of Hamas - so I don't understand why you are crying against the Israelis. If you really wanted PEACE and a if you were a man of honour you would publically denounce (also in Arabic) the daily rocket attacks aginst innocent Israeli citizens instead of trying to make Israel look guilty. Come on Mr. Abbas I challange you to show your true colours. I am beginning to have my doubts ?????

(question is - who's side am I on?)

Israel should let Hamas to depose Abbas and smash Fatah in Judea and Samaria, or even help Hamas to do so. Then everybody would like to abolish the PA and wipe it off the world map and consciousness. It will also open the way for the Kingdom of Jordan to take charge as the only viable nation state of all the Arabs of Greater Palestine. Having got rid of the PA, Israel and Jordan should agree on the border between them in Judea and Samaria and maybe cede Gaza to Egypt that would sort it out quite smartly. Everybody, Jews and Arabs, should continue to live in peace where they are and nobody should move from their homes or land. Israelis who would thus become residents of the Kingdom of Jordan should be given rights and conditions like the Arabs in Israel.

We do not need to advertise publicize or in any way support the killers who use children as shields except to condem it vigoursely every time these murders bring children with them to show them how it os done to kill israelis. Haven't we learned yet their tactics?

Did he not explain why the kids were used to retrieve those rocket launchers?

So Israel give the PA money because it is against HAMAS and they use that money to accidentally pay Hamas salaries. Now the PA complains Israel is killing the Hamas terrorists they supposedly condemn. I think Israel has been played for a sucker.

Typical Abbas. You save his hide, give him a couple bucks and a gun, and he stands up for hammas. Again...

the rocket launchers between salvos they fire into israel then are "schocked" when israel targets the rocket launchers?pallywoods version of disneyland in action to create sympathy for their murderous cause.they have it down to a science and obviously abbas is just 1 of pallywoods actors.olmert and his supporters are avid pallywood fans since they are not living in their homes at sderot.havent heard a thing lately about peretz-is he moving or hunkered down-cant get to the phone?

its called TERRORISTS, how many times do we have to make that clear?

Mahmoud Abbas want to have a little bit sympathy from his own people according to his failure in the palestinians territories to impose law and order, the vast majority of the palestinians hates him because he is a coward and weak leader that except talking didn't improve the palestinian status. He as always , trying to please his own people by willingly acknowledging about there "suffer" at the Gaza strip. Abbas is a corrupt and rusty "leader", he can't be popular among his people because he afraid of Hamas and it's cohorts. The arabs respect only persistent and hard liner leader, the reason is very simple, they understand to only force, other attitude towards them, consider as weakness, they need a tyrant like Assad or Muhbarak. The assumption underlying his as a "moderate's" perception is an absurd and pathetic. The next candidate to presidency election even opposes to Oslo accords, but, Hamas will conquer the presidency race neither.

That's saying it all, really!

Again and again, Abbas shows his true colors. Our "peace partner" sounds like a Hamas operative. Civilians my butt!!! Those were terrorists, and if Abbas is complaining about killing them than we could use a real partner for peace and not a clown!!!

tough talk from a "puppet leader," existing only through the us taxpayer dollars we never hear about feeding, providing services to his masses, simply because these people do not care, they only want to fatten their own wallets

this is what we get for helping the west bring down the ottman empire .the last muslim empire but be aware it might just come back .and see the fall of all western installed goverments. and one more thing i dont understand why the jews make it seem like we been at war for thousands of years . this only started when israel was born and it had to be born . and i wish i the jews in the world would move there

ARE YOU SERIOUS???????????
