Using claims like retaliation for Palestinian rocket fire is false and misleading. They sell that story to the American masses via main stream media to make people think that all the nice Israelis are doing is defending themselves. What is not told and what the rest of the world knows, is that the Israelis have been the aggressors all along. From shooting American made missiles into crowded Palestinian habitations killing countless civilians, conducting targeted assassinations, bulldozing houses, starving the population, destroying their electrical power plants, poisoning and denying them water, and countless other acts of war and aggression the Israelis have been on a serious offensive . Not a week goes by without Palestinians being killed. Yet we hear a lot about Palestinian rocket fire but oddly enough with no Israeli casualties.
They twist the truth to make the victims become the aggressors and the aggressors become the victims. The Israelis are pushing ahead with their genocide of the Palestinian people so that they can complete taking all of Palestinian lands as they claim was given to them by their god as chosen people. The real story is that they are using the worst Satanic methods to obtain what they claim was given to them by their god. Indeed what they are doing is in total opposition to the edicts of the Creator. As one leading Jewish intellectual admitted a few years ago, "Many Jews don't like to admit it, but our god is Lucifer!" Senior Israeli defense official: Collective punishment works http://www.imemc.org/article/52392 In a statement to the Israeli press Monday, a senior Israeli official claimed that the collective punishment of the entire Palestinian population of the Gaza Strip was an effective way to curb Palestinian homemade rocket attacks, stating that Palestinians "got the message". Despite the fact that such collective punishment of an entire population is explicitly illegal under international law and the Fourth Geneva Convention, and despite the fact that Palestinians in the Gaza Strip are an occupied people, and are thus entitled to a special 'protected' status under United Nations regulations, the Israeli occupying authorities have continually attempted to justify measures which punish the entire Palestinian population for the actions of a few. Said the unnamed senior Israeli military official, in an interview with the Israeli daily Yedioth Ahranot, "We got the message across. Hamas understood the equation: A continuation of the rocket fire would lead to Israeli pressure against armed groups and civilians. We do not plan to cause a humanitarian catastrophe, but they now realize they will not get fuel or other luxuries as well." Many Palestinians disagree with the designation of fuel as a luxury, given that the fuel cutoff has made it impossible to maintain operation of hospitals and clinics, and a number of patients have died as a result. Communications between emergency personnel have been affected, and the sick and elderly have been suffering through a severely cold winter without access to heat. Article 33 of the Fourth Geneva Convention forbids collective punishment and states that a person shall not be punished for an offense he or she has not personally committed. This article explicitly relates to administrative punishment imposed on persons or groups because of acts that they did not personally commit. Article 50 of the Hague Regulations states a comparable prohibition. Israeli policies in the Gaza Strip continue to target the entire population of 1.5 million people as punishment for homemade rockets fired toward Israel by a few Palestinian resistance fighters. The Israeli military source quoted in the Israeli paper Monday made clear that the collective punishment of the Palestinian population in Gaza will continue, stating, "Only an end to rocket fire would enable a return to normal life in the Gaza Strip." joeschmuck wrote: So throwing all the Jews into concentration camps as punishment for what their gang leaders do should be okay then.
