- saltinekracka20, on 01/22/2009, -0/+4Yes, Hamas, this is clearly a victory.
- inactive, on 01/22/2009, -0/+4-1-23-09---JerusalwemPost--->BIG surprise! They lied.--"The number of Palestinians killed in Operation Cast Lead did not exceed five or six hundred, Lorenzo Cremonesi, a correspondent for Italy's Corriere della sera reported on Thursday.Cremonesi based his report on tours of hospitals in the Gaza Strip and on interviews with families of casualties. He also assessed the number of wounded to be far lower than 5,000, the number quoted by Hamas and repeated by the UN and the Red Cross in Gaza."It is sufficient to visit several hospitals [in the Gaza Strip] to understand that the numbers don't add up," he wrote.Cremonesi interviewed Gazans who echoed Israel's insistence of how Hamas gunmen used civilians as human shields. One Gazan recalled civilians in Gaza shouting atHamas and Islamic Jihad men, "Go away, go away from here! Do you want the Israelis to kill us all? Do you want our children to die under their bombs? Take your guns and missiles with you." " You will all die, like us. Fighting the Zionist Jews we are all destined for paradise. Do you not wish to die with us?" the religious fanatics of Hamas reportedly responded."
Others told him of Hamas operatives donning paramedic uniforms and commandeering ambulances. A woman identified as Um Abdullah, 48, spoke of Hamas using UN buildings as launch pads for rockets.Cremonesi reported that he had difficultly gathering evidence as the local population was terrified of Hamas. -- So--the truth surfaces.At last. Israel deserves mant apologies from the media like BBC and CNN. The Red Cross and the United Nations. yet I won't hold my breath to see any thing next to what used to be "human" coming from these.They showed their true colors during this defensive move of Israel against hamas. - inactive, on 01/22/2009, -3/+7If half your family was killed, your loved one, some of your friends, your parents and your home... right, you wouldnt think of joining and radicalizing Hamas. Certainly, you would say "alright, I got it, I will be now good and kind to you".
Cease fire?
Think again.
As someone once said: "Why do they hate us?" - inactive, on 01/22/2009, -0/+3"...those who cling to power through corruption and deceit and the silencing of dissent — know that you are on the wrong side of history." -- President Obama
- kp998, on 01/22/2009, -0/+2"What we Israelis have against Moses is that he led us through the desert for 40 years to the only corner of the Middle East without a drop of oil." That line sounds somewhat prophetic considering Israels latest endeavor. By the way, Golda died in 1978.
- Lucas123, on 01/22/2009, -2/+4I've got a bet for you. Hamas will be the first the break the ceasefire, like every single time before.
- CsHitman, on 01/22/2009, -2/+3Is it bad I want 7 more dead so it would be 1337?
- hydroplane, on 01/22/2009, -0/+1Sounds more like a joke that Krusty the Clown would use in his act.
- hyderalamgir, on 01/22/2009, -0/+1I thought that was for Bush :D
- emecks, on 01/22/2009, -0/+1"They hate our freedom"
- inactive, on 01/23/2009, -0/+1what are you, 16?
- michaelpinto, on 01/23/2009, -0/+1During the same period about 2000 innocent civilians have died from cholera in Zimbabwe as a direct result of government oppression - yet that story never made the front page of Digg.
- DeskFlyer, on 01/23/2009, -0/+1Perpetual war never ends.
- ileftfark, on 01/23/2009, -0/+1Cool... So the media releases these numbers, and now it's all over. I'm so glad we can put this all behind us now. Peace in the Middle East, amirirte, guys?
- wondertwins, on 01/23/2009, -0/+1wow... it hasnt even been a month and there are over 6,000+ casualties. that is so horrific.
- Dalhectar, on 01/22/2009, -0/+1I suppose "loving your children" means not being allowed to fish.
- MrScotchBoy, on 01/23/2009, -0/+1Too many dead and injured! When is it going to end?
- hyderalamgir, on 01/22/2009, -1/+1That's sick!
Unfortunately, once the international media finally gets let in, the actual death toll will be much higher.
