AK2004 > You obviously do not believe in human rights and you do lust for the blood of "children and babies, in horrifying numbers" as you nicely put it.

And it's quite obvious that you can't read because I have addressed this already.

>> here's a website that gives statistics about Palestinian v Israeli children killed since 2000.

ifamericansknew.org

"The majority of these [Palestinian] children were killed and injured while going about normal daily activities, such as going to school, playing, shopping, or simply being in their homes. Sixty-four percent of children killed during the first six months of 2003 died as a result of Israeli air and ground attacks, or from indiscriminate fire from Israeli soldiers.”

In such circumstances of 734 Palestinian children being killed I would say the term "horrific numbers" is entirely justified. And further, I would suggest that the 121 Israeli children who died is also terrible and unnecessary.<<

> muslim terrorists not only target civilians but specifically target children as was claimed more than once by terrorists themselves. Geneva conventions represent international law that is designed to protect basic human rights of individuals.

The facts show, however, that the Israelis are far more successful at killing children than the Muslims. In the circumstances, you should therefore address your Geneva Convention remarks to the Israelis since they are responsible for the killing and I am merely someone who remarked about it.
