No matter what evidence I produce, you'll find an excuse for the killing. According to you, if an Israeli tank fires its heavy machine gun into a crowd, killing 10 people, that is OK,

No.. that's NOT okay.. However, the entire story is not yet out, from what I can see.

But Nadine has a real point here.. There is no truly objective news coverage being conducted in Palestinian territory. There are common accusations of "staged" photo ops and censorship of any negative coverage.

For instance, there has been NO MEDIA COVERAGE of the incident related to Palestinian use of that UN ambulance.

Nor has there been much coverage of how Palestinian men use stone-throwing children as cover for their sniper operations.

What you need to consider Sarmad, is what level of retaliation will Israel be authorized to use once they leave Gaza, should they suffer continued attacks against their state.

The Palestinians had better recognize that once the Israeli settlers have departed, they will no longer be an occupied power. And should they attack Israel after that, from that territory, Israel will have every right of self-defense.
