110. Of course the intent of the IDF wasn't to slaughter/murder out of malice...

Edited on Wed Dec-07-11 07:20 AM by shira

The whole point of sending the IDF house to house was to limit casualties. The final body count and ratio of civilians to terrorists killed, as well as IDF casualties in the process, shows the IDF tried very hard to distinguish b/w civilians and combatants.

So it wasn't a massacre, slaughter, or deliberate murder.

That's demonization and you seem more than happy to portray Israel and the IDF in Jenin as cruel murderers rather than a legit military operation intended to stop terror against Israeli citizens.
