3. children
mike ,   ISRAEL   (08.29.07)
It is a terrible thing if this really did happen that kids should die in war, but I blame the Hamas and the Palistean people for having a government that is trying on a daily basis to kill innocent Israeli kids with missles. You play with fire, you get burnt!
4. palestinian kids died!!!
patrick ,   fr   (08.29.07)
sad but then such is life ; how many of our kids are fired on by the palestinian every day sderot etc.... do we hear the palies apologising for the killing of our children???? If the palestinians were acting in a civilised manner I'm pretty sure all these would stop over night.... but then will the pallies ever become civilised! I doubt it
5. Good.

6. We are
israeli ,   israel   (08.29.07)
at war! No sentiments, please.
7. Don't use your kids as human shields while trying to murder
Dani ,   Tel Aviv   (08.29.07)
our kids.
8. Kids Being Killed
Ed ,   USA   (08.29.07)
How many were killed this morning in Darfur? Will there be a full investigation? The selective indignation is always interesting to observe.
9. shield.
E Benjamin ,   stormville NY USA   (08.29.07)
Typical Arabs using kids as a shield. The cowards that they are.
10. Pallies
Richard Riddle ,   London UK   (08.29.07)
Is 'pallies' not a racist slur? Can I use the term 'Yid' then?
11. #10 - Is "Brits" a racist slur?
Hamburger ,   Hamburg   (08.29.07)
You see, we use the word "Palies" as a friendly nickname, coz we all like them so much. Now, do you have an input that would actually be relevant to the discussion, or are you here just for racist slurs like "Yid"?
12. War comes home to Arabs also
Tzvia ,   Tiberias   (08.29.07)
They aim to kill us several times a day. We have to make some effort to defend ourselves--and we are not making enough. When the Arabs understand that if they murder, they will be killed, then we will have peace. I have no tears for those who give out candy and have parties when Jewish children and adults are murdered. And those who sit in Tel Aviv should understand that the party is nearly over--they can reach you also with the new weapons posted on the Golan. So worry about yourselves and your children and do not cry for your enemies.
13. Kids firing rockets?
Juan ,   Spain   (08.29.07)
Maybe the kids have been trained to fire rockets. It's also an unsubstantiated report, by the sounds of it.
14. To no. 10
Juan ,   Spain   (08.29.07)
Of course the term "pallies" is not racist! Your mind has been affected by living in the British PC nanny and dhimmi state.
15. "play with matches . . . . "

16. another arab woman doing "the wave"
Y ,   Israel   (08.29.07)
Haven't I seen this arab woman waving her arms in the banner photo before in other news stories? Why does the media always show these theatrical arab women doing "the wave" whenever Israel strikes back at terrorists? I believe these women are paid "actresses" and local arab journalists are paid to show "arab pain". Western media, Israel included, propagate the performance. - propaganda for the enemy!
17. Pallies
patrick ,   fr   (08.29.07)
no more than froggy, paddy, katofel, paky etc... do you get it roast beef!!!
18. Why aren't the parents celebrating their children went to
(08.29.07)
Moslem heaven after bying in a jihad? Why pretend they love their children when they provoke the wars against them?
19. #10 Hey Richard, there's no Riddle here
Sarah ,   Israel   (08.29.07)
It would seem that we Mid-Easterners all use derogatory terms for each other during these unbrotherly, heated times. Sadly, it's just like any other war. Remember the terms 'Jerry' (Gerri) , Jap, etc.? All ENGLISH expressions, no? Do you refer to us as 'yids' already? there there, gis' a kiss! xxx
20. #10 Richard Riddle---Uh?
ER ,   Canada   (08.29.07)
A word search finds your talkback to be the only instance of both of your nasty words. Looks like you are simply a trouble maker.
21. #4 Patrick, get a life!
Khalid ,   Gaza City   (08.29.07)
"do we hear the palies apologising for the killing of our children????" You are French, when did the "Palies" ever kill a French child?? Or were you speaking as an Israeli? Then why not tell me the last time a Qassam killed even an Israeli child! You keep whining about rockets that usually land in the middle of the desert and our children keep getting killed by your tanks, it's sad, really.
22. 3 "palestinian" children killed in IDF strike
Axel Bavaria ,   Passau, Bavaria   (08.29.07)
The press should make it clear from the outset - i.e., from the head-line - that these kids were used deliberatedly as human shields - either by bringing them close to the Qassam launcher, or by bringing the Qassam launcher close to them. The terrorists thereby get a win-win situation: Either the IDF does not strike to save the kids and other civilians standing nearby - the terrorists win. Or the IDF decides to strike, thereby killing a number of civilians, incl. kids. The terrorists win again, but only if the press cooperates, i.e. prints head-lines like "IDF kills 3 children" without notifying the reader of how these deaths came about. The IDF always plays by the rules of the Geneva Conventions, which expressly allow the targetting of military targets even when civilians should die from it, cause they're nearby. The terrorists on the other hand do not respect the GCs, which prohibit the presence of civilians in and near military installations, such as a Qassam launcher, and thereby they put "their" people deliberatedly at risk of death. That is not the IDF's fault, but the terrorists' ! ... Best regards from a non-Jewish, non-Christian German atheist Zionist.
23. Khalid, why not tell us the last time
Sarah ,   Israel   (08.29.07)
- an endless campaign of missiles was fired for years in the direction of civilian-populated townships with the intent to kill or maim as many innocents as possible - was undertaken against Palestinians. N E V E R !! Not forgetting to just mention the countless bus bombings, homocide/suicide attacks in crowded marketplaces and pubs/clubs and cafe's and central bus stations, and the airline hijackings (thankfully, not since airport security got serious) sent by your murderous mullahs. Is that okay?
24. #22 - thanks Axel - we appreciate seeing....
Andy ,   ramat hasharon   (08.29.07)
European zionists.
25. IDF recruiting pediatricians
(08.29.07)
Dr. Zangen has been through the phase of practicing profession. No place there for defending Israel; time for action!
26. #21 - what's sad, Khalid....
Andy ,   ramat hasharon   (08.29.07)
is that you cant keep your kids away from Kassm Launchers. Do that, or better yet, stop launching Kassms and nobody gets killed. Better yet, make peace with us and get yourselves out of the misery you seem so committed to living in. Or keep making war and watch Palestinians die. The choices are clear and its up to you.

patrick ,   fr   (08.29.07)
I have fr passport yes, it's not the only one.... mind you I know Palies with british, Us, NZ, AUS passport so where are you getting at! denying the evil your authorities do and blaming others will never solve your problems neither give you PEACE. where are the people in a right mind who will feed their kids with hate and send them as"Martyrs", using them as shield ....... apart your people I think it's you who should get a life
28. Racist Comment
Aal ,   Pasadena / CA   (08.29.07)
Its not the first time, its not the first kid, to be killed directly without involved in a war. Do you remember Qanna 1/ Qanna 2 and last Lebanese war, and more. Common guys, be realistic, this happened 100 times and everytime they stated they use civilians as human shield.... 3.5 Million Cluster bombs thrown in the last 2 days of Lebanese war. Common be human and realistic, this act is intended. These kids doesn't deserve to die in this way by your smart bombs. Please refer to Betislim organization report about the number of kids killed by isreali fire. Please place the comment. Thanks
29. Pals using children
Casiopea   (08.29.07)
for terrorists activities and propaganda. This is their custom.
30. Kalid, #22
Jason, Ph.D.   (08.29.07)
Khalid, I have a simple idea. How about stopping the rockets being fired from the Gaza Strip into Israel? Then nobody has to killed. Buy the, way, Khalid, what would your Hamas government do to you if you were to drop by their offices and propose that they stop shooting Kassams?
