The child killing Israeli army is once again on the rampage in occupied Gaza, and inflicting greater brutality on the Palestinian as never before.
**Israeli tanks and bulldozers moved back into the Rafah refugee camp in the Gaza Strip yesterday, just days after the Israeli army destroyed about 100 houses, leaving some 2,000 people homeless and eight, including two children, dead.
At the same time, the Israeli army ordered 15 Palestinians being held without trial to be permanently deported from the West Bank to Gaza - a move denounced by Israeli and international human rights groups as illegal.**](http://news.independent.co.uk/world/middle_east/story.jsp?story=453392)

The UN agencies, international and Israeli human rights organisations have all condemnded the Israeli operation in Gaza, and even many in Israel are voicing alarm at Sharon's war crimes.
It's time for the Israeli moderates and intellectuals who are working with the Palestinians on a final peace accord, to push the regime in Israel. Otherwise Israel is doomed in more ways than one.
Nah the number is to insignificant to the Americans. Plus i wonder if the Palestinians should have the right to attack these IDF soliders a la Israel in Syria?

Yes, Israeli soldiers and the instruments of Israeli occupation i.e. the illegal Jewish settlements are legitimate targets, and I am sure no one would object to the Palestinian's attacking them? After all the terrorist army of Israel has killed over 2000 Palestinian's in the last years, including over 400 children and babies - war crminals.
Israel needs to start looking for the promised land again.
The middle east was a much more peaceful region before Israel finally stole... I mean found the promised land in Palestine.
It's time these gypsies moved along to Mars. At least that way the human race will be safe.
They say, you reap what you sow. If the States, Britain and United Nations didn't acknowledge the gypsy State of Israel 50 odd years ago, we wouldn't be in this mess now. If only we a had a real Time Machine to travel back in hey.
Hmm, some regular posters conspicuously absent. Maybe they'll chime in when an Israeli get's a paper cut from a sheet of paper owned by a Palestinian school child.
Another 14 (or 16?) including children murdered by the zionist terrorist army (homicide bombers) and about 100 injured. Hey so what - it's another means of population control! Wait for Palestinian reprisal - oops "terrorism".

The child-murdering Israeli terrorist army has now killed over 400 Palestinian kids, and it seems to be killing them on a daily basis in desperate and futile acts that should be condemned by it's sponsors. At least there are voices within Israel which are telling Sharon like it is, and accusing him of being the warmonger. This is what Shimon Peres, the former PM and opposition leader has said about the Palestinians today:-
"Prime minister, you have missed the opportunity...we are dealing with a nation that is fighting for its freedom, and don't take them lightly,"
As the Israeli war crminals continue to butcher more innocent Palestinian’s, including children people within Israel are now saying that government of Israel is “losing its mind”…
Raids prompt Israeli soul-searching
CRIES of Palestinian anger mingled with mutterings of Israeli unease yesterday as families in Gaza held funerals for 12 people killed in F16 fighter-bomber and helicopter gunship strikes on Monday. Criticism of the series of five attacks that lasted 12 hours was voiced widely, from the occupants of the mourning tents that stretched half a mile down the main street of Nusseirat refugee camp, all the way to the Israeli Cabinet. The firing of two missiles at the car of a militant as it drove through a crowded Nusseirat at night drew particular fury. Witnesses say that the second missile slammed into the road minutes after the first, killing a crowd of innocent civilians who had rushed to rescue those injured in the first blast. A 12-year-old boy and a doctor treating the wounded were among the seven civilians killed and up to 100 people were injured, according to several independent witness accounts given yesterday. Staff at the Nusseirat clinic said that Dr Zain La Abdul Shaheen had been inside the medical centre when the first rocket landed 200 metres away. He was killed by shrapnel when he ran out to help. During the five attacks, which began at 8.30am and lasted until 9pm, the jets and Apache helicopter gunships hit several of their intended targets, including a Hamas weapons dump and a car carrying two Hamas militants.
But the Israeli soul-searching was prompted by the scale of civilian casualties — including the seven bystanders at the Nusseirat attack and one apparently innocent motorist who was in front of the militants’ pick-up truck when a rocket blew it apart at traffic lights in the middle of Gaza City. Ofir Pines-Paz, secretary-general of Israel’s opposition Labour Party, said the attacks showed that the Government was “losing its mind”. Criticism came even from within the Cabinet of Ariel Sharon, the Prime Minister. Yosef Paritzky, the Infrastructure Minister, said: “The failure to differentiate between civilians and terrorists turns all the Palestinians into potential suicide bombers.” He urged the Israeli Army to acknowledge its error and compensate innocent victims of the strike.
The Government says that such raids are necessary to crush the “terrorist infrastruct- ure” of Hamas and Islamic Jihad. The Israeli military refuted Palestinian accounts, of the missile strike in Nusseirat. Major Sharon Feingold, an Israel defence forces spokeswoman said that footage from a spotter drone showed that the first missile struck the bonnet of the car and the second hit it squarely one minute later after the car had tried to flee. She said the footage showed only “one or two” people near by when the second missile struck and that the crowd only gathered after the second impact. “We completely deny the claim that we fired a missile into a crowd. The Israeli airforce never fired missiles when there were innocent bystanders and we will never do it in the future” she said. President Katsav extended condolences, but added: “We have to fight terrorism; we have no choice.”
*According to information received by the UN, the Israeli army has destroyed an estimated 4,000 homes over the past three years, leaving thousands of people homeless, many of whom are women, children and elderly persons. * – Another aspect to Israels official policy of ethnic cleansing against the Palestininans.
A UN human rights expert has condemned an “escalation of violations against the Palestinian people” and called on the international community “to act decisively to protect Palestinians by taking urgent steps to remove the impunity that Israel enjoys”.
The Special Rapporteur on Adequate Housing for the UN High Commission on Human Rights, Miloon Kothari, said that human rights in the occupied Palestinian territories (OPT) had “deteriorated significantly over the past three years, in spite of the international community’s condemnation of Israel’s illegal collective punishment against the Palestinian people” in the OPT. “The Special Rapporteur urges the international community to act decisively to protect Palestinians by taking urgent steps to remove the impunity that Israel enjoys,” he said.
