Someone else posted something about the Palestinians sending 12 year olds against the Israeli army. I didn't either support or dispute that claim. No one else disputed the claim either but someone did call it quibbling and that Israel sends teenagers to battle. I think there is a big difference between 18 and 12 so I said it was not quibbling. I then got a response about how Israel was going to send younger people in to the army. I have no evidence that this is true but even if it is there is a big difference between 17 and 12 as well. If the Palestinians don't send 12 and 13 year olds out to fight then this whole sub thread is rather moot, and if anyone knows that they don't do this then they should have responded when the subject started.
