31. What do you expect, when Hamas vermin fire from built areas?
hymie zoltsveis ,   NYC USA   (06.11.08)
This is EXACTLY what Hamas wants. ASSUMING THAT THIS DEATH ISN'T STAGED (it could be---Hamas does this all the time), when you fire missles into Israel from built-up area of Gaza, the response is predictable. The Gazans elected these vermin. Let them suffer for their choices. The fault is of ther Gazans. Get rid of your vile leaders, or move. When Israel ets a REAL government, Gaza must be liquidated. GAZA KAPUT!

Daniele ,   Amsterdam NL   (06.11.08)
Everyone is crying when a child get hurt,but cowards are using human shields. Solution is simple. Cowards need to fire their mortar shells Katusha or whatever away from their house. I do not cry for this girl nor for future baby,women,elder. I have my children to protect from. cowards

I believe you're absolutely right. That photo looked suspiciously familiar, but it appears that al-Reuters must keep a cache of photos of wailing Arab women to trot out any time they want to attempt to paint the IDF as the villains in this war that Hamas terrorists have launched against innocent Israeli civilians. Also, it would be interesting to see just how many of those same women support the sacrificing of their children for the sake of martyrdom. Far too many of them I suspect.
35. When Turks and Iranians Shell Kurdish Towns
(06.11.08)
How is not possible that civilians aren't killed?
36. same staged photo of same woman from lebanon
avi ,   jerusalem   (06.11.08)

the human shields into the IDF's fire.
38. #17 - YOU LIAR - YOU ARE KILLING YOUR OWN CHILDREN.
(06.11.08)
"the gazans are accepting cease fire and stopping clashes...." and this one is ever better: "Gaza is fighting with nails to protect the children and civilians...." Do you really believe this sh--? Gazans are firing on civilian targets in Israel every day from built up, civilian populated areas. And if you don't stop it - we will. We will destroy those rocket launchers wherever they are. It is our right and duty to do this. The choice is yours: keep firing on us and get hammered - or stop firing on us and make peace. Believe me I cannot stand Olmert - he is corrupt and lazy. But don't be too happy about that - he is not Israel - if he decides to go flatten Gaza for the peace and quiet on our borders that we deserve, then he will have my support in this.
39. #35 Hey!, there are Iraq & Darfor

49. attempting to fire rockets from built-up area in Khan Younis
observer   (06.11.08)
are you out of your mind; the only target possible, and the rockets can reach from that location, is Henyiha's house. to whom are you selling that crap?
50. #49 To barely aware observer
Cynthia ,   USA   (06.12.08)
Per Wikipedia, "Since Israel's 2005 Gaza Disengagement, over 2,000 Kassam rockets have been launched from Khan Yunis into Israel, mostly to the Southern Israeli city of Sderot."
51. #50 rockets don't make short cuts
observer   (06.12.08)
You must have confused the southern Gaza's Khan Yonis with Beit Hanoun, or you thought that rockets take a short cut across the Southern Pole to Sderot in the north . Wikipedia is not that accurate to depend upon. Map is clear! On December 16, 2004, the Israeli occupation forces raided Khan Ynis with armoured bulldozers and tanks in order to stop mortar shelling of Israeli illegal settlements. In the six weeks before the operation about 80 mortar shells and Qassam rockets had hit Gush Katif settlement which had been built on land forcibly taken from the local inhabitants.
52. #51 Accurate when convenient for you
Cynthia ,   USA   (06.12.08)
If you don't consider Wikipedia to be an accurate source, why did you quote from it? "On December 16, 2004, the Israeli occupation forces raided the town with armoured bulldozers and tanks in order to stop mortar shelling of Israeli illegal settlements. In the six weeks before the operation about 80 mortar shells and Qassam rockets had hit Gush Katif settlement which had been built on land forcibly taken from the local inhabitants, killing one Thai worker and wounding a dozen civilians and 11 soldiers." I really don't understand what point you're trying to make.
53. Anonymous #46
Chocko ,   NY, USA   (06.12.08)
I think if you look closer at the comments by at least 2 people they actually thought they were the photos from the bomb site.. Man. talking to you people is REALLY HARD... Your not really worth the effort are you... I only stick around because Im actually doing a thesis on how does the desert heat affect the brain.... Obviously not that well.. and if you want help with the big words, just underline them and I will try to explain them later.
54. Of course Wikipedia is always correct
Chocko ,   NY, USA   (06.12.08)
55. 52,Khan Younis & Gush Katif r close but Sderot is far beyond
observer   (06.12.08)
Qassam's range if launched from Khan Younis. IDF said at many times; it hit launching cells near Khan Younis but did not tell whether at the launching site or not, so that it gives the impression that rockets are launched from Khan Younis as well. But this time, the IDF either decided to remove the veil or to pin down its lies.
