Re: Haaretz: IDF admitted there was no gunfire from Gaza sc

Yah typical Gov cover-up when they make a serious blunder. also from haaretz:

"Gaza rocket strikes Ashkelon, injuring 14 Israelis By Yanir Yagna, Haaretz Correspondent, and Haaretz Service
After a relatively quiet night, Palestinians in Gaza resumed rocket fire on Israel's southern communities on Saturday. At around 4:30 P.M., a rocket struck the city of Ashkelon, moderately wounding one person and lightly hurting 13 more. Twenty-three people were treated for shock." (their "shock" is busted eardrums etc..)
For those who think Gazan Rockets are ineffective

Sorry I can't quit posting this stuff but the American press isn't covering it.
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', '[')b]Gaza: Residents waving white flags 'shot dead as they flee their homes' At least three Palestinians in Gaza were shot dead yesterday after Israeli soldiers fired on a group of residents leaving their homes on orders from the military and waving white flags, according to testimony taken by the Israeli human rights group B'Tselem. The testimony was rejected by the military after what it said was a preliminary investigation.

Claims like this are pretty upsetting.

However, the Palestinians have a long history of fabricating stories of mass killings etc. that upon examination turn out to be untrue. In this case the story you linked to ends with the statement, "The military said late last night that it had found the claim to be "without foundation".

Given that denial by the Israelis, I suspect this unlikely story of IDF soldiers shooting Palestianians as they wave little white flags simply isn't true.

I guess at the end of the day, we'll never know since we weren't there. I'm skeptical when the army investigates its own actions, however.

Would you like to see the phosphorous bombs going off in Palestine , the ones that don't exist?

go to you tube.

Palestine is all about terrorizing a population under cover so they leave. Killing those who don't go.

As palestine continues to shrink it will be evident.

Someone once posted a map showing the Israel/palestine territories in 1950/60/70/80/90/2000 and toady

it was frightening.

whoever did that, could you post that again?

It makes the true agenda obvious.

Of course they exist. There are THOUSANDS of photos of the Phosphorus bombs. I posted a pic of one myself in the Israel topic. Check it out.

Where do you imagine the people of Gaza will go? Egypt has closed their border and so has Israel.

The people of Gaza aren't going anywhere. In fact they have one of the largest rates of population growth of any region in the world---.

Are these supposed to be the three Palestinian civilians shot while carrying white flags, one of whom was a woman?

The Palestinians seem to be carrying out the wrong bodies in preparation for this particular photoshoot, if this is supposed to be evidence for the "white flag" story.

So these are actually Hamas security forces, all wearing a kind of "blackshirt" uniform, killed in combat with IDF forces---don't you kow that the IDF has killed hundreds of Hamas fighters and their commanders?

In any case, these unfortunate soldiers have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO with the male and female civilian residents purportedly killed while waving white flags.
