Israel And Hamas Fight Over Gaza Casualty List
[Ynet] In era in which public opinion is part of warfare, Israel and Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, fighting additional war over the identity and number of causalities in Gazoo, and Israel charges Hamas with turning snuffies into innocents in quest for world sympathy.

The latest round of fighting between Israel and Hamas extends far beyond the urban warfare playing out in the cities and towns of the Gazoo Strip; the Israeli cities targeted by waves of Paleostinian rockets; and the seek-and-destroy mission of locating and eradicating the elaborate and intricate network of tunnels revealed to extend deep into Israeli territory and beneath southern Israeli communities.

Beyond the shooting war, there is a war of images seeking to justify the actions of the players in the eyes of the world. To accomplish this, Hamas seeks to create the belief that most - more than 80% - of the 1,137 Paleostinians who died during the first two weeks of fighting are noncombatant women and kiddies - innocent victims of outrageous Israeli aggression. Israel, on the other hand, asserts that the process of identifying the dead is manipulated in order to predetermine the conclusion that Israel has relentlessly slaughtered innocents rather than admit the obvious use of civilian human shields and the commensurate benefits to the Hamas narrative of a high body count.
