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.
how about the fact that these assholes put launchpads in civilian areas or hide amongst civilians? this wasnt an attact on the people, the fact that they were hurt is indeed an accident however the strategic location of the launchpads was no accident.

I am familiar. Are you still implying that you still believe in the conspiracy theories for 9/11?? You really need to get a grip on yourself. It's is clear who the offenders are in 9/11. And you being Jewish.. what does that have anything to do with something that happened 60 years ago?? don't tell me you still living in the past. You don't see me go crying about the japanese kicking our ass in WWII.

I have a feeling you are not so familiar with those 2 events, so try clicking on the links I provided (information from Answers.com) and then you will understand my point better.

you still have not backed up any of your statements. Way to continually prove your ineptitude.

It doesn't matter what they put where. "Cease Fire" means you do not attack. If Israel had attacked these launch pads and had not killed any civilians, that would still be a violation of the cease fire.

There had not been a single attack on Israel in 16 months. They had no excuse to attack Gaza in any capacity.

I'll answer this one if you don't mind so I can practice my spelling and grammar you know because I'm so bad at it. That comment is offending because 60 years ago or 60 days ago everyone of us is effected in some way. For example when I was growing up, I couldn't let anyone know I was a Jew because there was still hatred toward us. That was 24 years ago, that hatred did not vanish over night and having to live with remembering what happened and knowing people who were deeply hurt is not fun. That is one even just as 9/11 that should not be used in that context

Yes, it is definately clear to anyone who has investigated the events of 9/11 who the offenders are. Only the brainwashed public believes that rediculous conspiracy theory put forth by the government. But recent polls seems to show that more and more people are discovering the truth:

Just as with the Reichastage fire and the sinking of the USS Maine, I'm sure in a generation or two the truth will be believed by the majority of people. Although you will still have your holdouts to common sense and knowledge

and that's why they call it war. Somehow, all of you are not able to grasp that concept.
