Yerusalyim

So, the World Court is upset with Israel over it's wall. When will this kind of thing be addressed...which explains the reason for the wall.

GAZA'S KILLING SCHOOL
Children as young as 10 are being recruited to fight for the Palestinian cause.

Sky News has gained access to a young people's camp in Gaza, where the only lesson taught is how to kill Israelis.
Sky's Middle East Correspondent Emma Hurd said the camp, at an undisclosed location, had been set up to drill children in the ways of war.
The recruits, some of whom are dwarfed by their AK-47 assault rifles, are taught how to carry out ambushes.
They are also made to do an obstacle course, crawling under barbed wire and leaping through hoops of fire while their instructors fire live bullets overhead.

Hurd witnessed one training session in which a militant, dressed as a Jewish settler complete with yarmulke skull cap, was ambushed in his car.Gunmen pulled the "settler" from his vehicle and Hurd was told if this had been real he would have been killed.

She spoke to two 10-year-old recruits.

One of them, Mustafa, said he wanted to shoot down Israeli aircraft and blow up tanks.

The camp is run by a group called the Popular Resistance Committee, which said the next generation of Palestinians needed to know how to fight the Israeli "occupation".

The boys even "graduate" at the end of their training, receiving a certificate from the camp commander.

You know, when I was a kid they asked me in high school how I owuld solve the mideast problem. I wrote a paper saying, in my childish way, that they should build a wall between the two nations, ban all travel back and forth for a period of five years, and then encourage friendly trade.

Strange how I leapt to the right conclusion. I should have a talk show.

Yeru. An equally apt headline would be "Children as young as 10 are being targetted my Isreali soldiers".

Yes, the world court has a place and is right to condemn terrorism and illegal and divisive acts whatever side they are from.

Just because you can find some "wrong" on on side does not excude any wrong done on the other. It sounds like the tit-for-tat religious intellerance and hatred that the UK has suffered in Northern Irelland where each side claims the others actions justifies their own killing and barbarism.

They are all, equally dumb and wrong.

Simon,

Point out to me the camps where 10 year old Jews are trained to kill Palestinians and we can agree. THE FREAKING WALL AIN'T KILLING ANYONE...the terrorists are.

Simon

They send trained soldiers to do it ... they are far better at it don't you agree? It is also an indisputable fact that they also target innocent, unarmed people.

The wall is a land-grab by an extremist state and is rightly condemned, just as other terrorist acts are condemned.

It's a pity that the US choses to be so biased and one-sided and always sides with Israel no matter what attrocities they commit. It makes you look like dumb stooges to the rest of the world and does not do you any credit at all.

Yerusalyim

That you would call Israel an "extremist state" shouldn't suprise me, but it did. Where again are the Israelis INTENTIONALLY TARGETING innocent civilians?

If the Israelis were really only interested in stopping terroris, why didn't they build the wall on the actual border between Israel and Palestine?

Simon

Yeru. Israeli soldiers recently fired on UK MPs on a fact-finding mission. They have been widely condemned for firing into crowds during peaceful demonstrations.

And the Palestinians terrorists have NOT BEEN WIDELY CONDEMNED for using crowds to hide in and shoot at Israelis. Now then, did the Israelis KNOW it was a MP they were firing at?

It emphasised that the delegation of politicians did not coordinate their arrival with either the foreign ministry or the defence ministry. Hmmm could this be important?
The Israeli Army says a formal complaint was only received after the claim was made in the media.
A source said it was unclear whether shots had been fired, and if so by whom.
He said the exchange of fire between both sides was "commonplace" in the area and had not necessarily come from Israeli forces.

"Now then, did the Israelis KNOW it was a MP they were firing at?"

nah, they must have thought they were terrorists. just open fire and hope they're terrorists seems to be the policy.

a more pertinent question would be, "did the israelis know WHO they were firing at, at all?"
