#1 I think of the most mean, hateful people that I have ever met in my entire life and I can't imagine anyone who would place cute, curly headed children in a place where they know they will be bombed. Are these Islamists really human? Has anyone checked to be sure?

#2 They were forewarned several days ago that further urban renewal operations would be occurring there. Can't take a hint ? Too dumb to move ? Or simply matyrs ?

#3 The kiddies are useful tools to the propaganda machine of the Paleos. It is a tool of war that is available to them. I hope that Israel is flattening all phone exchanges, cell towers, tin can telephone lines, satellite earth stations, fiber optic links, radio and TV transmitters, and last but not least, Al Jazeera news crews. They should have taken out the AJ crew in Haifa when the IDF found them doing a live feed when they were told not to do it.

#4 Human shields.

I can't think of any other explanation but Human shields.

Its dispicable enough to use hostages or strangers as human shields. How much worse is it to use your own children?

Sick!

#5 Remember this, the "Palestinians" ancestors used to burn their children alive as sacrifices for Moloch. Different name for the same god and practices, it seems.

#6 What a pleasant start to a new day. Very uplifting. Though I do hope the fluffy bunny body count is low.

#8 Ok, not defending the Palis, but maybe the kids were in the adjoining "homes, shops & businesses"? It doesn't say they were in the Foreign Ministry, guys, just that they were in the area. It's a bit too soon to call them human shields.

"...cute, curly headed children..."

A programmed from birth with Muzzie Death Cult propaganda, and destined to be the next wave of terrorists. Save your pity for those that deserve it.

"Are these Islamists really human?"

No. They are not human. Q.E.D.

#11 Swamp,
Chances are you're right, but it really doesn't change the story. You have to be either cruel or have incredibly poor judgement to keep your children that close to an announced target after a week of intense bombing. And that description pretty much sums up the whole subject population, doesn't it.

#12 Swamp, Ok, that might explain their presence. But as glenmore mentioned - you have to be either pretty damn stupid or uncaring to have your kids close to a desinated target.

OR the kids were planted there after the strike a-la Pallywood.

#13 Cleansing the gene pool. There will be a whole lot more of this before it really ends. Until there is a whole lot more of this it won't end.

#14 In the latest Mark Steyn column Steyn notes in passing that the medium age of Gaza residents is just under 16 yrs. old. Per Steyn they're unemployed, uneducated, and inculcated since birth in the muslim death cult. The future is not very bright on so many levels. Depressing.

#15 Doesn't anyone realize that this is the children destiny. They house them close to the targets, let the Israelis bomb the target, call AL-JIZ, report the innocents have died, stir up the supporters, then have funerals for the martyers. Cildren are born, educated, and used for "suicide" missions.

#16 glenmore & CF, the bleeding heart lib in me (getting more disgusted by the day, ok, but she's still there) would like to think that maybe their parents had nowhere else to go. We don't know all the circumstances. Maybe those psychopaths running their government threatened them and made them stay? I wouldn't put it past them. We sure wouldn't hear about it from the MSM, not with their romanticization of terrorists as "militants" or "freedom fighters". Hamas would sink to any level of depravity you can imagine. That's not too extreme for them at all.

I'm sure they were thinking that little Abdul and Fatima would be good Jr. Shahids/propaganda fodder if it came down to it. Knowing how the Palis act, that's a definite, sick possibility. I don't understand their mentality at all.

I put the blame for these childrens' injuries on Hamas more than on the parents, until we get more info on this.

(But yeah, if I was living there, I'd get my kids out of the area somehow if I thought the Israelis were going to blow it up. Fark anyone who would try to make my kids stay. I'm crazy, not stupid.)

#17 Don't want to go out on a limb here, but maybe the Paleos are lying about the casualties?

Or am I just a cynic?

#18 A Cynic? No, just excellent pattern recognition.
With Sab Erekat or any other Paleo mouthpiece, I think it's probably a safe bet that every word out of their mouths is a lie, including "and" and "the".
When I need an easy giggle, I imagine Sab Erekat as a used car salesman....

#19 Allan and Darwin are camped out in the outer reaches. Allan complains that these cavemen are doing all this killing in his name. Darwin suggests that Allan give the cavemen the idea to hide behind their children. That way, Darwin explains, the killing will stop within one generation. They laugh and gather virgins about them. All's well that ends well.
