*It has been very strange to me, even at the start of the massacre of toddlers and children, that, Netanyahu started his indiscriminate bombing of Gaza with zero regard to the hostages; now we see the proof that the careless disregard for their own hostages were deliberate, one has to wonder if Netanyahu was responsible for the instigation of the attack on his own people in Israel. Any wonder they killed the three Israelis that escaped their kidnappers?*

MSNBC made a grave error.

[Sharkbait_Soybomb]

The story of the IDF firing on the home that was holding 15 Israeli hostages and where 13 were killed is shocking. It seems like the IDF is heavily armed but don't actually know how to engage in combat. And to think they are in possesion of nuclear weapons is terrifying.

[FaycalOuazine]

"The tragedy of the people of Palestine is that their country was “given” by a foreign power to another people for the creation of a new state. The result was that many hundreds of thousands of innocent people were made permanently homeless. With every new conflict their numbers increased. How much longer is the world willing to endure this spectacle of wanton cruelty?" ~ Bertrand Russell
