Israel is either playing very dirty or messed up badly today, I'm thinking a little bit of both: Israeli forces shell UN headquarters in Gaza
another proof that the terrorist illegal state of Israel is targeting civilians and practicing collective punishment on them, if it is not the overused false claim of "Human shields", it will be the other overused "tragic mistake" false claim, which their dirty history is full of it, as they did when they bombed USS liberty ship in 1967, and Qana UN shelter in 1996, and Qana again in 2006, and in Lebanon 1982 when they denied the use of white phosphorus against civilians but foreign reporters proved they were lying, of course the illegal terrorist regime learns from its "mistakes" so they did not allow foreign reporters this time so they do not witness on the crimes that they planned previously, using yet another lame excuse that it is not safe, if it is not safe for reporters who take risks in their jobs, how can it be safe for the 1.5 million civilians there?
I guess Hamas does not ever make 'mistakes' since they purposely target innocents with suicide bombs and rockets. With guys like Imad, Israel can't do anything right. In his mind Israel is a perfect being that never errs, so that when something happens it must have been Israel's intent, because they are perfect. No such thing as a tragic mistake for the Jews of Israel. Israeli soldiers get killed by friendly fire - Imad says Israel must have wanted to kill them. No mistakes are possible. Fog of war does not exist for Israel. Israel is exempt from the realities that every army throughout history has faced and is instead perfect according to guys like Imad. I read a story like this and I agree the loss of supplies is a loss for the Palestinian people, but I wonder why would Israel target supplies or the UN? Logic tells us that they wouldn't there is no advantage to be gained and horrible PR price to pay. Common sense tells us that Israel was trying to hit something, probably Hamas militants, and either missed or the militants were in a location with the supplies and were hit but were not the target. Until someone shows any proof or any rational evidence that Israel targeted the supplies or the UN, because they were supplies or the UN, that conclusion is wholly unsupported by any facts and is just being used as propaganda.
I know it is hard for you to understand, but with an Israeli long history of lies, a person would learn at the end and know, and even expect what they would say next, the last was not long ago when they said the school was bombed because Hamas fired mortars from inside the school, UN investigated and said there was no fighters or any military activity in the school, so they made a new cover story and said it was not from inside the school, it was close to the school, then they came with a third cover story and said it was an error and one shell went 30 meters far from it's target and hit the school, there was also another story about Hamas storing weapons in the school that exploded and made the tragedy worse ... bla bla which story do you believe? for me, none, of course you are free to believe whatever one you pick the American USS liberty ship, they also said it was a mistake, they thought it was an Egyptian ship, I do not know if people in US were so naive when they believed them, or they got bribes to accept the story, but both the victims, and the Israeli pilots who bombed the ship, have different story than the overused false "tragic mistake" claim, and so many other examples, in 1982, they also lied and said we did not use white phosphorus, but later when journalists revealed their lie, they admitted it, and so they did in 2006 when they first denied the use of WP but investigations proved they used it, so they later admitted it, and so many other incidents that would take 100's of pages to mention, and then browntwn comes and want us to believe their story?
not the first time Israel killed some UN spectators. If they keep it up I won't be having much to worry about. Now, if only they could focus these efforts on say.. the WHO.
browntwn, Israel is far from being an innocent country and just because your country's government supports it is the reason it even exists as a country today. It is losing the very few friends it has in the World with its current actions.
There's nothing silly about what he wrote. He stated facts. On a related note, here's an article from the UN News Centre: Senior official gives eyewitness account of Israeli shelling of UN Gaza compound
So once again, we have hamas...hiding like cowards, behind not only women and children, but the UN, to fire on Israel. These animals have no morals or values.
ahahahahahahahahahahahahaha If Olmert said so it must me the truth! Ahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahaha Seriously, are you that naive?
iggs, I don't support hamas like you do. hamas has a long history of hiding behind women and children.
ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahaha Olmert said so it must be nothing but truth! He is the man you can trust without any doubt hahahahahahahahahahahaha
Substantiate your claim about Hamas having "a long history of hiding behind women and children". There is no proof in that assumption at all. There are 1000+ dead in Gaza right now and surprise, surprise....the majority of them are children and women. Not even 30% of them are Hamas fighters. And quoting the "Butcher of Beirut" and a corrupt politician currently being indicted in Israel for bribery as evidence is not something which is a smart thing to do either.
I agree. It was ignorant, not sill. Sorry. DP ban hammer disclaimer: Statement/Comment = Ignorant Not calling the person ignorant (Disclaimer meant for some of the less experienced in forum moderation )
