If that is the case, then how come human rights organizations are calling for urgent international action to protect civilians in the besieged city of Gaza, which is now under a new wave of aerial attacks? How come international rights group, Defense for Children, says Israeli forces and settlers have killed nearly 2,000 Palestinian children over the past 15 years?
Certainly Allan Hogarth, Amnesty International UK’s Head of Policy and Government Affairs, is not an anti-Semite, when he says: “The UK should be unequivocal about Israel’s settlement policy in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, which is a war crime. The UK must press for an immediate halt to Israel’s construction and expansion of illegal settlements. All those suspected of criminal responsibility must be brought to trial.”
And how can Netanyahu explain what Amnesty International declares in its latest report: “The blockade is overly excessive and prevents vital supplies and aid from entering the impoverished area, which is home to 1.8 million Palestinians.”
Gaza’s suffering is unacceptable and must end now. Israel must lift the blockade and end its collective punishment of the civilian population. The relentless air assault on Gaza has seen Israeli forces flagrantly disregard civilian life and property, which must be protected under international humanitarian law.
Netanyahu and other Israeli leaders are pretty much aware that what is going on in Gaza is a war crime, pure and simple. And they know exactly why without even listening to Amnesty director’s latest comment in this respect.
Deliberately attacking a civilian home is a war crime, and the overwhelming scale of destruction of civilian homes, in some cases with entire families inside them, points to a distressing pattern of repeated violations of the laws of war.
For those still living in Gaza’s ruins, simply spending time in their own homes – if there’s any, frequenting a mosque, going to a hospital or school has become a dangerous enterprise since any one of these architectural edifices caning there could become at any moment a target for the Israeli army – a potential target Netanyahu callously claims “Israel’s army does not aspire to hit.”

This whole Israel thing is giving MooCow a headache…. whats troubling is the mandatory refute and banishment of Jesus Christ and Christianity if you want to immigrate to todays Israel to become “one” with them and the “Israeli Art Students and Dancing Israeli’s on 911″…. if it is true…. why did you hurt us people in the USA?? We originally believed in you and you did that 9111 stuff to us for your small inner circle of elitists friends.

May I point out the article in Drudge report today finally exposing the fact that the religion and peoples of the middle east are —- child molesters.
Our military is not allow to report what the men of the middle east including the Palestinian do to little boys and to little girls on a regular basis.
This perverted culture is encouraged by their religion — so should I believe you Mr P “stone”? nay — any man that would sexually abuse a little boy should be shot on the spot
Your right. The attitude over there is that woman are completely inferior to males. They are to be despised and ‘used’ only for procreation.
So, they find it perfectly acceptable to slack their lusts and build their only real relationships with other males. They give no thought to the age.
