101. No big loss?

Thu Jul 24, 2014, 10:26 AM

Jul 2014

It was evacuated.....the medical equipment and supplies were still there. That is a huge loss.

And if my neighbor was throwing rocks onto my lawn that were causing no damage or injuries I would not take a rocket launcher and blow up his house.

Why did you put quotes round the word civilian? Violet_Crumble Jul 2014 #79

Because Hamas has decreed that ALL casualties are to be called civilian. 7962 Jul 2014 #86

Ah, so Hamas made you do it? I could swear I've heard that somewhere before... Violet_Crumble Jul 2014 #89

I specifically said children WERE civilians. Their parents are to blame for not moving. 7962 Jul 2014 #90

Leave? And where do the civilians go? blackspade Jul 2014 #92

There is a lot of Gaza not under assault. 7962 Jul 2014 #106

Nope, not justified. blackspade Jul 2014 #23

So what's the alternative? christx30 Jul 2014 #134

The alternative is to not bomb hospitals and 'safe' areas. blackspade Jul 2014 #136

So the rockets continue to fire christx30 Jul 2014 #138

So what is your solution? blackspade Jul 2014 #139
