Ugh. As someone who is Jewish, has lived in Israel, and has many friends in the Israeli military, I find it hard to post here since it is clear where most of the sentiment is. I would take articles like the one posted with a grain of salt, as they are clearly writing from a biased point of view. For one, Palestinians in the last 10 years have been increasing using women and "children" (I don't really see a 16-17 year old with a gun as a child but that's just me) for their suicide attacks, as they would be less suspicious. Many of the women and children reported killed are killed while inside the Hamas compounds being bombed, as they are the wives and children of the people the Israelis are trying to eliminate. While it is regrettable that these things happen, it is a part of war. I found it interesting when a Palestinian rocket aimed at an Israeli city went astray earlier in the year and killed a bunch of Palestinian children, there wasn't a single mention of it on CNN. I'm sorry if I'm rambling a bit, it just drives me crazy how slanted news coverage and the UN are on this issue.
