How evil are the Israelis- prepared to be sickened to the core of your soul

18.07.2006 04:43

QUOTE
The case of 15-year-old Hibah Yaghmour may help to explain why. She was convicted of disobeying a soldier’s order and using physical force as she tried to enter a mosque.

According to the girl’s family, when the soldier tried to search her she pushed him and ran away. He shot her three times. When Hibah came out of a coma and went on trial, a female Israeli soldier who witnessed the incident agreed the teenager, then 14, had asked for a woman to conduct the search.

“She felt humiliated,” said Hibah’s father, a middle-class businessman. “She did not want a man to touch her.” She is now in Tel Mond prison, serving an 18-month sentence.
UNQUOTE (from timesonline)

When I read this, I have no doubt that the state of Israel is the most vile depraved nation ever to exist on the face of the Earth. Blair must have masturbated for hours after reading the above story. One can hear Cherie Blair's shrieks of laughter as her husband related the story of a muslim child gunned down for the crime of running from an uniformed Israeli psychopath worse than any SS officer, and then sent to an Israeli rape factory for 18 months when she survived the attempt to slaughter her.

Those of you that defend Israel because of Marx and Lenin and Hitler make me loathe sharing even the same species as you. Israel's 'right of self-defense' is every Israelis right to gun down that child above, and dare her parents to do a damned thing as they watch their screaming child dragged to the Israeli rape factory.

Well, what a surprise! If you think your story's vile, then why don't you consider the amount of innocent Israeli children, both Jewish and Arab (as we've just seen with Hisbollah slaughtering Israeli Arab children in Nazareth), slaughtered by the Islamo-fascist terror regimes of the Middle East, be they Palestinian or Iranian/Syrian-sponsored terror groups.

You call Israel vile yet Israel is the only democracy in the country - the story of the 14 year old girl is tragic and cannot be excused yet, once again, you jump on the band wagon accusing of Israel of everything wrong under the sun - why don't you look at its neighbours, intent on destroying a democratic Jewish state - a right to which every people has, before you accuse Israel of being a "rejectionist" state.

Your comparisons of Israel and SS officers is vile and repulsive and you know full well history does not stand on your side. Please publish this comment; human rights and freedom of expression are a common right, something Israel's neighbours don't agree with. If this comment is not published, although the other one already was and was obviously accepted (otherwise it wouldn't be allowed to appear on this site), then this is a sign of the double standard always applied to Israel by its critics. Remember: there are always two sides to any story.

P.S Israel's right to exist (as you obviously question) is as valid as any other country, if not even more valid than, say, a country like Pakistan

Not equal amounts

One can look at the amount of Israeli children killed and one would find that it is far less than those in Lebanon or Gaza. That is not including all those forced to flee for their lives or those now living in horrific conditions because Israel has tagetted the infrastructure and prevents aid and medical services from coming in to help.

There may well be two side to every story but they are not necessarily the same size or scale!

For those who do want a ceasefire and the hope for peace there is another demo this Saturday at 12 noon next to M&S at the bottom of Market St.
