60. They are killing powerless, innocent people
Edited on Mon Jul-31-06 02:47 PM by Strawman
and it's wrong. "Deliberate" or not.

"Deliberate" is certainly not the word I would choose to describe the Israeli bombing. Personally I believe the bombing displays an appalling lack of care and deliberation at avoiding civillian casualties.

Do I think that the Israeli gov't and military are getting off on killing innocents? No. I don't believe that. If killing innocents was the "deliberate" goal, thousands more would be Lebanese would be dead.

There. Happy now?

Ultimately, however, I'm more horrified by Israel going overboard with their bombing and killing than those who are going overboard with their stupid rhetoric.

Maybe when Israel gets a bit more precise with it's bombing and stops killing so many innocent civillians, I'll worry more about it's critics being more precise and accurate with their rhetoric.
