    BBC's Jeremy Bowen made statements that he hasn't seen any evidence of it.

    I think it makes sense that Hamas to legitimize their actions would not carry out their dirty tactics infront of international reporters.

    Except that the UN has confirmed that Hamas has used UN chartered schools to store their missiles.

    Yes every government has right wing nut jobs. America had them. Israel has them. Great Britain has them etc. This still is not sufficient evidence to the claim Israel is purposefully commiting genocide.

    Yes, we all saw that video clip with the US Ambassador.

    Perhaps there was a better way to ensure that no children would die in that mission? But there's no mercy in war. I get it.

    Thanks for the links. Goes to show that the Israeli side has nutcases as well (which I never doubted). I also read an article today about an Israeli wanting to burn his passport because of a really pretty extreme right-wing Israeli politician. Let me see if I can find it.

    Edit: Here it is:

    P.S.: Politically disagree, but would hit ;).

    That way would be Hamas not storing missles at a school.

    I've never once defended Hamas. I feel like more Muslims should call them out on social media, etc instead of saying what would you do if your home, land was taken away. What's done is done and is in the past.

    I would hope and pray that my govt. would not be stupid enough to keep using the exact same tactics they've been using for decades that never works and never brings about peace. I would hope that my government would try something new this time.

    I would also encourage my government to stop their discriminatory policies and allow the Palestinians to be more self sufficient.

    This has probably been posted before. Ron Paul is the man.

    I don't think many people or even Muslims are defending Hamas, especially not on this forum. Unlike the tons of radicals that are defending Israel's massacre, wiping out over 20 whole families. :eek:

    haha 'call them out on social media'. That's your response to children being used as human shields. Didn't you say you have kids?

    Screw you Obama. He wants the exact same scenario as prior to Israel's invasion. Hamas shooting their weapons at Israeli civilians.

    Not sure if real. Sure hope not.

    After listening to the Hamas leaders refusing again and again to stop this suicidal mission they're dragging their own people to, I think Israel has one last choice to do.
    The prime minister should call a conference meeting and say: "Hamas- enough is enough! Stop killing your own people! We will give you 2 days to put down your weapons, after that rafiah borders will be open for un armed civilians to get the innocent out of harms way and then we will strike Gazze with all of our might and power, you are welcome to stay and fight but we highly urge you to not go that way. We will strike Hamas to the ground. It will be short, it will be painful, and from there we can re build Gazza and resume peace negotiation with the Palestinian people, not with the terrorist who took them hostages.

    You left out etc :grin:

    I find it amusing that you feel like the burden is on the vast majority of Muslim people to call their congressman...err...religious cleric. Hold up for a sec...Sistani just came on. Brb. :rolleyes:

    Keep on regurgitating the human shield angle to help you sleep better at night. The entire world sees the truth and multiple countries outside of the Middle East are axing Israel in general. For a reason.
