You're wrong as always. AloeVera May 25 #6

Other than your presumptive assertions, there is nothing you can produce to challenge me. Beastly Boy May 25 #8

The claim appears to be that it was a targeted attack on Hamdi Al-Najjar via "Where's Daddy?". lapucelle May 26 #12

They ran out of claims that appear halfass legitimate. An outright illegitimate one will do just fine Beastly Boy May 26 #13

So all healthcare workers and their children are guilty? AloeVera May 26 #38

A doctor holding hostages in a residential building is disgusting. lapucelle May 26 #41

Geneva does not authorize going hog-wild in an orgy of destruction on hospitals. AloeVera May 26 #19

Geneva does not authorize the use of hospitals for harboring top belligerent commanders. Beastly Boy May 26 #24

None of it excuses going hog-wild in an orgy of destruction... AloeVera May 26 #25

Yes, for some reason "going hog-wild in an orgy of destruction" is not in the Geneva conventions at all. Beastly Boy May 26 #26

If you truly believe Israel's destruction of health care and hospitals AloeVera May 26 #27

I believe nothing. The Geneva conventions are not a religious text to believe or disbelieve. Beastly Boy May 26 #28

Oh and... the house where the kids burned to death was 3 miles from the hospital grounds. AloeVera May 25 #7

So it wasn't an *attack* terrorists hiding in a hospital? The claim is that it was a targeted attack lapucelle May 26 #11

The Hamas bigwigs were hiding underground in the tunnel under the European Hospital. lapucelle May 26 #9

What does that have to do with the strike 3 miles away on a civilian house? AloeVera May 26 #16

That was terrorist stronghold in a different hospital. You pointed that out, remember? lapucelle May 26 #17

Huh? Lol AloeVera May 26 #20

Oh no... AloeVera May 25 #5

Yes. Hamas needs to release the remaining hostages and hostage bodies, surrender, and beg lapucelle May 26 #10

Never mind terrorist organizations use civilians as human shields. That doesn't enter the equation at all because AZLD4Candidate May 26 #18

Looks like the only side proven to use human shields is Israel. AloeVera May 26 #22

When Jewish lives are treated with such reverance, maybe I'll change my mind AZLD4Candidate May 26 #42

In all probability this is yet another lie. Richard D May 26 #30

This is the second time these children have been killed. Richard D May 26 #31

Appalling. There were nine real, alive children burned and mutilated to death. That is indisputable. AloeVera May 26 #33

Says . . . Richard D May 26 #34

You keep repeating 44,000 when that falsehood was called out already. AloeVera May 26 #39

UN lying about 44,000 children dying in 48 hours? Never happened! Beastly Boy May 26 #44

Oh and you are back on ignore. AloeVera May 26 #40

I'll do my best Richard D May 26 #45

Pictures lie and reveal Richard D May 27 #46

According to the article posted by the OP, it was a targeted strike on the father, a Hamas militant terrorist. lapucelle May 28 #49

Damn . . . Richard D May 28 #50

Either way the story stinks to high heaven. lapucelle May 28 #53

Which article was that in? Violet_Crumble Tuesday #62

+972 Magazine. lapucelle Tuesday #64

The 972mag article doesn't say that at all... Violet_Crumble Tuesday #65

No, that's who the +972 magazine piece says are targeted. lapucelle Tuesday #67

The 972mag article doesn't say anything about the father recently killed... Violet_Crumble Tuesday #68

Actually, it's an inference based on evidence that the OP so helpfully provided. lapucelle Tuesday #69

So, it's nothing but yr opinion. Okay. Violet_Crumble Tuesday #70

Just trying to be pro-active.... Because of course the IDF would claim that "terrorists" were there! AloeVera Tuesday #73

Gaza is full of terrorists. lapucelle Tuesday #74

Then Israel is the King of Terror. AloeVera Tuesday #75

Thanks.... AloeVera Tuesday #72

It is not a lie that the children were killed. Even your source says that. AloeVera May 26 #32

That would be a treat NoRethugFriends May 27 #47

Because the story in the OP is raising so many red flags, it is likely a lie. Beastly Boy May 27 #48
