Nice guys. Great religion.

According to medical sources in the Strip, a 12-year old boy and three youths, ages 17 to 19, were among the dead.
The IDF said it was looking into the allegations, adding that in several cases during the day, Palestinian gunmen were firing at IDF soldiers while using civilian crowds, including children, as shields.
The IDF further reported an anti-tank missile was fired on the troops. No casualties were reported among IDF soldiers.
Earlier Friday morning, Givati and Armor Corps forces reportedly entered the al-Bureij refugee camp area with six reinforced vehicles and two bulldozers.
The forces are operating along the security fence in an effort to uncover weapons and terror infrastructure, but Israel has refrained from launching a broad operation inside the coastal enclave.
During the early hours of Friday morning Israeli air strikes in the southern Gaza Strip town of Khan Younis area killed at least two Hamas terrorists in Gaza and wounded seven others.
The IDF confirmed both the air strikes and the fact that the pilots identified a hit.

“Target-rich environment” doesn’t even begin to describe the opportunity here. Those kids are learning that they can attack Israel with impunity. It’s time to disabuse them of that notion.

Exactly why is someone who is over the age of 18 referred to as a “youth” instead of an adult. Oh, that’s right. It plays into the media’s plan of making it sound even more heinous in a case against Israel. Damn media is filled with moral idiots!!
Gunmen in the picture surrounded by children. Such nice, humane and kind people the Palestinians/Muslims are.
The haters of life and worshipers of death.
April 11th, 2008 at 12:09 pmHeres how I see it. And tell me if im wrong. These people are standing their knowing that they are playing a role in fighting the army (even if it is simply being a meat shield) so to call them innocent civilians is wrong. All that they are is unarmed militia???? its one thing if they are bound and forced, but if they are standing their under their own free will, They are subject to a bullet just as the rest are.

Scotty it is all just a game with the Pali population. Ever see any of the coutless film clips of them running for one reason or another. It is not uncommon for them to be smiling or laughing while running en-mass.
April 11th, 2008 at 5:13 pmThey do this type activity as sport. So to be used as a human shield is nothing new nor should it surprise anybody.
Hamas condones it, the general population likes it and condones it.
call me insensitive;but,these ‘children’ are brainwashed from the youngest of ages,we’ve all seen the pictures here on dollard before. They are just ‘child jihadists’. They even have jihadist TV shows (with Mickey Mouse posers,and bumble bees)targeted towards children to indoctrinate and program their minds towards death and hate. Unfortunately by the time they are killed they not ‘innocent little children’ anymore.
