Terrorist acts by radical Zionists root of Middle East woes
Editor,
An Israeli army officer who shot a 13-year-old Palestinian girl 17 times was recently acquitted on all charges by an Israeli court. The little girl, Iman Al-Hams, ventured near an Israeli army post close to the Rafah refugee camp near Gaza, when the officer unloaded his entire magazine on the Palestinian girl.
The officer also reportedly said that he would have killed the girl, even if it was a 3-year-old. Witnesses reported seeing the captain shoot Al-Hams in the head twice, walk away, then turn around and shower the little girl’s body in bullets. When will Israel end its acts of terrorism? When will America finally realize that the root of the Middle East’s problems is the racist ideology of Zionism?

While the above event is tragic and appalling, one cannot help but read it with a feeling of irony following a terrorist attack last night which killed 4 Israelis, on of them pregnant. All they were doing was driving in their car on a road, when Palestinian terrorists riddled their car, and bodies, with bullets.
They were killed for being Jewish. So who are the racists? Me thinks it’s the Muslim Palestinians.
Do Arabs use child suicide bombers?

“Baby killers” the peace people screamed at our Vietnam soldiers which is the truth but not the whole truth. Did Vietnamese use their children as suicide bombers? Were many of them booby-trapped like sitting on the grenade, or bomb, that would go off if the child stood up? What is a soldier to do when they have seen many of their friends go up to a child to give them candy and instead are blown to pieces? What are they going to do when they see another child? So, those children were the “Baby Killers.”
Children are taught, including by cartoons, to kill the Jews. Children hold rifles with bullet necklaces ready to “kill the Jew pigs!” Groups of children have been seen parading in suicide uniforms with weapons. “Baby Killers?” Has the soldier in question seen his friends blown up by one of these “Baby Killers?”

Can the writer of the article admit that children have been used as warriors? I WANT TO KNOW THE TRUTH! HAVE CHILDREN BEEN USED MOSTAFA? DOES ISLAM ALLOW YOU TO LIE? IF YOU LIE, IS THAT A SIN AND WHAT IS THE PUNISHMENT? YES OR NO?
I bet that at that particular army checkpoint, or other checkpoints, there have been suicide attacks and suicide attempts INCLUDING USING CHILDREN!
Since no evidence from the trial was mentioned by Mostafa, all we can do is speculate why he was acquitted and evidence was brought up that in fact, children of all ages were used including “a three year old.” Then that soldier had to have seen the girl’s parents, or family member, acting suspiciously like pushing the girl to go up to the post. The girl now having fear in her eyes focuses on the soldiers eyes. He sees that fear in her eyes and he interprets that as fear of losing her life but killing as many soldiers as possible. His reaction of so many bullets proved he was in fear for himself and his friends.
HE WAS ACQUITTED BECAUSE CHILDREN HAVE BEEN USED AS “BABY KILLERS” AND THEY PROVED IT!
MOSTAFA, BLOOD IS ON YOUR HANDS BECAUSE YOUR HATRED FOR “THE RACIST IDEOLOGY OF ZIONISM” PROVES THAT YOU SUPPORT SUICIDE BOMBERS INCLUDING USING CHILDREN AS WARRIORS!!!

The conventional wisdom is that the Middle East peace talks between Benjamin Netanyahu and Mahmoud Abbas will go nowhere, as each side is engaged in an elaborate charade to please the Obama administration.
Netanyahu cannot move one hundred thousand Israelis off the West Bank, nor can he give up the strategic high ground in the Judean desert. Abbas cannot speak for the majority of the Palestinians, and his lack of legitimacy is underscored by his currently serving the sixth year of a four-year term. Like Yasser Arafat, Abbas has shown no desire to go down in history as the Palestinian who gave up the refugees’ “right of return.”

The refugee problem is one of the biggest stumbling blocks to peace. And it has taken on a life of its own, as the refugees have become a useful gimmick in the peace charade.
Depending upon whose estimate you read, there are some twenty or thirty thousand “refugees” in the Balata refugee camp outside of Nablus. Balata is simultaneously the most populous and smallest of the Palestinian refugee camps — its growing population is confined to one square kilometer, making it one of the most densely populated and miserable places on the planet.
Any regime with an ounce of compassion would have shut Balata down and integrated its people into the surrounding community. Balata is a place without hope, a quagmire of despair, where the day-to-day misery of its inhabitants is partially ameliorated by Western charities and the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNWRA), while inadvertently building a culture of dependence.
Balata’s creation could ostensibly be laid at Israel’s doorstep, but its perpetuation cannot. The current residents of Balata are only refugees by a crude reworking of the meaning of the term. They themselves have fled from nothing, and sought refuge from nothing. They are the children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren of the people who fled or were expelled during the 1948 war.
If you want to use the term “apartheid” to characterize some aspect of Middle East politics, then Balata is a good place to apply it. It is the Palestinian Authority’s answer to Soweto.
The PA does not permit the children of Balata to go to local schools. It does not permit the people of Balata to build outside the one square kilometer. The people of Balata are prevented from voting in local elections, and the PA provides none of the funds for the necessary infrastructure of the camp — including sewers and roads.
Balata and the other refugee camps are showcases of contrived misery. They are Potemkin villages in reverse. Naïve peace activists and unsophisticated Western clergy are led through such camps to witness the refugee drama, with Israel conveniently and prominently cast in the role of villain.

you cannot blame the worlds problems on Zionists just because of one or 2 soldiers who lose their cool and do something like this – how about we blame the US army for the worlds problems because of the way some of the soldiers treated the prisoners – get real moron!!

The Christian Crusades in the Middle Ages were wrong just like the Zionist Crusades in recent times are wrong. And as justification they use what Christian Nazis did to them as an excuse to persecute Arab Muslims and Christians. For once and for all the Holocaust was NOT carried out in the Middle East. Many Jews and many Muslims are both Semites…..So hating Muslims is just as anti-Semitic as hating Jews….But then hatred of Jews is not the real issue here is it? Pro Zionist factions try to use the most politically correct term in common use in the world, antisemitism as a bludgeon to try and stop any and all objective debate about Israel….Which is as dishonest and anti American as most anything one can do.If you policies can not stand the sunlight of honest debate then you must have something terrible to hide.

being anti-zionist is simply taking a stand against racism, hate crimes, theft, and violence. kinda like being anti-hamas, or taliban, or american occupation of iraq and afghanistan.

Muslim terrorists (Palestinians included) routinely use children as human shields while carrying out their acts of aggression. They have also started training children, both male and female to be suicide bombers because we (non-Muslim infidels) are less likely to shoot them before they reach their target. Isrealis arent the problem. The problem is that you have pledged to convert or kill all infidels, use children to do it and then lie about the circumstances of an event to make it seem like you are the victims.

Israeli terrorists routinely use children as human shields while carrying out their acts of aggression. The problem is that the Israeli govt. is on record as proclaiming Palestinians are non-human and that the Palestinian land belongs to Israel as decreed by their God, and therefore the zionist regime will have to kill all the Palestinians, including their children, and then lie about the circumstances of every event to make it seem like they (zionists) are the victims.
UN report accuses Israel of using human shields
Israeli soldiers used an 11-year-old Palestinian boy as a human shield during the war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip, UN human rights experts said Monday.

Israel’s Use of Palestinian Children and Adults as Human Shields
“During the 2002 massacre in Jenin refugee camp, residents were used as ‘human shields’ by Israeli soldiers. They were forced at gunpoint to lead the way into homes, opening doors which the soldiers thought might be booby-trapped.”

God gave Israel to the Jews in the Bible. The problem is that sometime later it was invaded by non-Jews (Muslims) and the real problem is that they won’t give it back acccording to Koran law. Who is the rightful owner those given the land by God or those who took it by invasion?

Daniel, you left out one important fact:
The 4 Israelis killed were Jewish settlers on the West Bank. These settlements are illegal under the international laws of war. Building settlements and exporting civilian populations into occupied territories is a violation of the Geneva Convention.

Thanks for proving my point, obama. If you have to resort to hurling insults, that must mean you have no facts or logic on your side.
All you’re doing is proving that Zionism is a cult of hateful racists.

Just like their neocon buddies the pro Zionists pretty much never ever argue the objective facts…..They prefer to try and attack the messenger. Character assassination is what they do. That is why they love to hurl the anti-Semitism charge again and again. If you truly do want to learn the history of the region I suggest reading a site from Jews for Justice…..http://wrmea.com/jews_for_justice/

SHUNKW, why were “The Christian Crusades in the Middle Ages… wrong?” History shows us the Muslims attacked the Christian cities of the Middle East, the eastern Mediterranean and Spain. The Muslim conquers beheaded tens of thousands and enslaved the people they conquered.The Crusades were to reclaim those lands and free the people from the brutality that is Shira law.
What objective book of history shows there were “Zionist Crusades?”

The Nazi party was not Christian, nor were its leaders. But they found plenty of support from leading Muslims.
Yes, the common ancestry is Semite. But the religious beliefs have nothing in common. A religion that degrades women by making them a possession, that stones them to death or subjects them to a horse whipping for some perceived crime such as not being sufficiently modest; that hangs gay men for being gay has no relationship to the Judea – Christian ethic. The intentional violence directed against a people by firing missiles from playgrounds, teaching little children to hate a person of common ancestry who is a Jew belongs to the Muslim.
Why do you defend this?

I wonder if the Israeli forces were safe from attack because there were boys in front of them? If gunman were behind those doors and shot at the soldiers, the building would have been destroyed and the gunman killed. Seams those 2 boys did something good.

You want to read about terrorist attacks? Go no further than Islam if you want to read, hear and see true terrorist attacks.

No ugene, it is just that you are such an illinformed asshat that your comments merit nothing but derision. Get serious and learn some truths about the subject and stop with the jihadi talking points and maybe there will be discussion. Failing that you are just fodder for ridicule. Deal with it.

Shunkw: hate to break it to you bud, but the Israeli left is just a suicidal and looney as the American left, maybe more so since Israel is the canary in the mine; on the cutting edge of Islamic extremism. So if you think that by finding some jews who condemn Israel, it don’t mean a thing just as locating Americans who hate and condemn America.
As for the rest of you tango supporting “anti-zionists,” if we assume the various allegations of Israeli war crimes and human rights violations are true, and I don’t believe it for one second, why do the various and far more numerous examples of crimes and violations of the other side not warrant condemnation as well?

Seriously, if your position is that pali violence is justified, no matter how numerous and heinous, then say so.
I have been to Israel more than a few times, unlike most of the posters here, and do not believe the Israelis are guilty of deliberate criminal acts. Any reasonable and objective analysis of the product of pali propaganda would reveal this to be true.
The Israelis are loosing the propaganda war with paliwood, unfortunately, though I doubt the raging looney lefties here in the states would care one way or the other. They hold the Israelis to a higher standard—kind of racist towards the palis if you ask me

The fact remains that this smear letter (masquerading as opinion) is anti-Semitic blood-libel. The Daily Lobo should either issue an apology and retraction— or be officially censured (condemned) by the University for re-printing what has been proven in court as slanderous fabrication.
