Guardian: Death on the beach: seven Palestineans killed as Israeli shells hit family picnic

The Independent: Palestineans killed on Gaza beach by Israeli gunboats

The Times: Babies die as artillery barrage hits families on picnic beach


And how about an Israeli news source:

Ynet: PM's daughter protests Gaza killings

Dana Olmert takes part in left-wing demonstration outside army chief's house; protesters call Halutz 'murderer,' declare 'intifada shall prevail.' Meanwhile, human rights groups send letter to PM, defense minister, calling on them to stop war crimes in territories.


Even the Prime Ministers own daughter thinks Israel was wrong.

Acknowledging that Israel is headed down the wrong road and has lousy leadership does not mean you are anti-Israeli. I am very much pro-Israeli. I think they were headed down the right road when Rabin was Prime Minister, but since then they have had very poor leadership.
