Children have choices? Babies? Women? They got it coming? bemildred Nov 2012 #16
Palestinians are responsible people. They have choices. They're not babies or mentally deficient... shira Nov 2012 #17

No, they don't. Israel is focusing on stopping Hamas... shira Nov 2012 #19
Have a nice day. nt bemildred Nov 2012 #20

Freedom? aquart Nov 2012 #31
You expect the Palestinians to self deport? sabrina 1 Nov 2012 #35
Not like the Palestinians do. Not even close.... shira Nov 2012 #33
Yes they do. Look what's happening in the Congo, for example. LeftishBrit Nov 2012 #40
No, they don't. Again, freedom fighters.... shira Nov 2012 #41
People who regard themselves as 'freedom fighters' have killed thousands over the years LeftishBrit Nov 2012 #42
In no other conflict is an entity as evil as Hamas been as successfully represented... shira Nov 2012 #45
Much as I detest Hamas and its violence, do you seriously think that Palestine is the ONLY group or LeftishBrit Nov 2012 #38

Civilian counts? IOW, not enough Israelis have died yet. Thanks. n/t shira Nov 2012 #10

You can always count on Shira to say the oddest things Scootaloo Nov 2012 #29

Agreed ... holdencaufield Nov 2012 #9

I have an idea, maybe they should quit hiding rockets where children sleep. nt rDigital Nov 2012 #24
How hard would it be to take the children through the Rafah gate To safety in Egypt? aquart Nov 2012 #30

Israeli apartments have bomb shelters. aquart Nov 2012 #37
Irrelevant. Ken Burch Nov 2012 #49
