    after i saw on several media that the israeli airstrike killed more than 30 kid

    on cnn they said 19,
    CNN:

    on BBC and other stations the number was 34 kid.

    BBC
    why is CNN trying to cover up ???
    i am not saying that the number of kids killed is important
    even 1 kid killed is too much for a top technology army.

    Well, in lebanon they are saying 54 has been killed and 27 of them are kids, so i think the lebanese news is better, because they are there.

    i guess it depends on the definition of kid,

    kid: 0-5 years
    or kid: 0-15 years
    or kid: 0-18 years

    Even in ancient times, shields had to be broken or destroyed before the opponent could be destroyed. This day and age, they use civilans as shields. So no, 1 kid killed is NOT too much. It's unfortunate but not too much.

    There's now questions as to whether hezbollah exploded the building after the attack:

    http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/1,7340,L-3283816,00.html#n

    Seems the propaganda machine behind this one is starting to slip a little. The biggest question, of course, is why would hezbollah fire rockets next to this civilian building (if it was)? Seems like deliberate and wilfull neglect to do such, yet they know exactly what happens.

    No point of blamming media coverage. No one is perfect. I watch CNN more than any other news channel. Do you tust Aljazeera? I never trust them. They all are the same.

    i concur, although it does sound strange an 18 year old kid :D would be more suitable as a teenager or adolescent but oh well
