IDF cant always be killing children. You just cant believe the Pals. However the BBC will report that children were killed so the BBC anti Israel propaganda machine continues. Israel KICK OUT the BBC

There's 8 more where they came from. Bring in MLRS and cause maximum damage and fear. These Palestinians have run riot for long enough. It's time to close the book on them now.

Acording to palestinian sources 2 unarmed Palestinians were killed and a bunch of children got hurt when isrlaeli misiles were shot at a group of people. What they forgot to say, is that the remaining 6 Palestinians that were killed in the same strike were armed terrorists with antitank misiles and very possible smaller arms. They think that the world wont bother to do the math. Well, we do the math..... We also understand that that the use of children as human shields is an act that only cowards would do. They take advantage of ignorant people, that are blinded by the few good things that Hamas has given to the palestinians, and send their kids to protect their "protectors" thinking that israelis will hold back. Well, it seems that not any more, it´s time the palestinians realize that one israeli kid is worth many times any of theirs, and don´t think it´s a racial thing, it´s just the value given to the kids by their own mothers. What kind of people let their kids hang arround armed man in a time like this? If they don´t think they are worth been kept safe, why should Israel? As long as israeli kids are in danger, keep your kids safe, cause holding back, seems and should, be a thing of the past.

My fellow Christian, Jewish, and Muslim brothers and sisters, how do you understand the term “Promised Land?” Is the Promised Land the certain PEACE of God’s Kingdom that is produced by a harmonious spiritual fellowship with God and all His children? Is it a state of being that you can take with you anywhere, even to the most distant galaxies? Or is the Promised Land a certain PIECE of God’s Kingdom that is an infinitesimal parcel of real estate in this universe? Is a particular tiny portion of this planet the only possible place to commune with an infinite God? If the Promised Land is a discrete piece of physical property, then this conflict is no more than a bloody, centuries long probate dispute over who inherits Abraham’s estate. Does the land go only to the sons of Isaac, or only to the sons of Ishmael, and to the exclusion of the rest of God’s children? Poets wrote the Torah and the Koran. Poets write metaphorically or symbolically. The words they choose represent concepts far greater than the words’ literal meaning or dictionary definitions. Understood symbolically, the term “Promised Land” is the certain PEACE of God’s Infinite Kingdom. Understood literally it is a certain infinitesimal PIECE of God’s Kingdom. The life you will experience depends on how you see the Promised Land. One vision produces an expanse of infinite possibilities. The other vision produces a restricted area with blood soaked stains. I know which vision I prefer. Shalom.

whatever empty threats hamas makes toward israel, let us not forget that they fight like mice, scurrying around, hiding behind women, children and civlians

You are right, it is written that the land was promised, and you are right, it was poets, visionaries, and wise people who wrote the Torah, The Bible and The Koran. The interpretation the religious leaders give to their words is what has bring us to todays situation. The interpretation of ¨Promised Land¨ is not the problem, the problem is that the land was made Holy by some of them, making it more important that the lifes of the people who live there.

18 years of living there and having served in lebanon between 83 and 86,seen Skuds from my apartment land in Ramat Gan and Tel Aviv during the golf war and having to decide not to let my kids grow in a place where been a Jew or a Cristian or a Muslim would matter, is what made me a Funky Sico Babbler. If you are going to give an opinion, at least explain yourself.

Your carefully worded and thoughtful post was countered, as usual, by a sick woman from Geneva calling you a funky sico babbler. Please do not let her odious insults put you off writing your opinions here. the fact that you seved in Lebanon, had scuds of your apartment will not deter her from insulting you for not having taken a maximalist and bigotted position. You might also note that Mrs Goldwater is too terrified to set foot inside Israel. Her stream of hateful invective issues forth from Geneva - safely far away from any danger.
