Jeroen <<You know, if there is one thing I find sickening, it is the neverending hammering on "Israeli girl killed" and "Palestinian child throws grenade". Why do people like you keep hammering on that, but conveniently never mention all those Palestinian children killed by Israel?>>
Ilana <<Fine. Pls display cases where Israeli soldiers/police *intentionally* killed Palestinian children. I have enough cases of the opposite - Dolfi disco, Sbarro pitza, several bat/bar mitzva parties.>> Jeroen <<Dutch television recently showed footage of a shooting at one of those parties. One of the guests was videotaping the event when the shooting started; from the footage it appeared that most of the guests were *adults*, not children.>> Ilana <SIGH> You are talking about Nathania, where nine month baby was killed. It was not Bar Mitzva, it was Shabath Hatan and, of course, most of the guests were grownups. Jeroen <<I can only conclude that phrases like "Palestinians target 10-year old girls" are Israeli propaganda, rather than an accurate description of events; the targets are Israeli citizens in general, not specifically children. (Which does not make the fact that children die any less horrible, though.)>> When you blow up school bus there are children there. When you blow up disco - there are children there. When you shoot on school tour - there are children there. I don't remember anybody talking about "targeting 10-year old girls" 12 and 13 and 15 and 18. Those who I *am* sure were especially targeted. And god forbid that I'll forget kindergarten in Yahud where bomb went off two early. Whom do you expect to find in kindergarten? Israeli children *are* especially targeted. Ilana from Israel
