Comments on: Terrorists Hiding Amongst Children http://militarygear.com/asp/2006/07/17/terrorists-hiding-amongst-children/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=terrorists-hiding-amongst-children The Web’s Leading Military Blog Since 2004 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 22:26:19 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: sue http://militarygear.com/asp/2006/07/17/terrorists-hiding-amongst-children/#comment-17248 sue Fri, 21 Jul 2006 08:16:28 +0000 http://militarygear.com/asp/?p=1080#comment-17248 There have been several stories on the news shows lately about how there is a "high civilian" death toll because of what ISRAEL is doing. (They fail to mention the Israelis who have been killed by the constant barrage of missiles.) On the better class programs they actually point out that the terrorists are indeed hiding among the civilian populations and using them as fodder. The sad thing is that as more civilians die, the more the Lebonese people will hate the Israelis for having "started" this, instead of their own government for being too weak to have kicked the terrorists out. And of course there is always good old Koffi with his big mouth and nothing between the ears!! Israel has tried to do the "right" thing and pull back from the occupied territories to try and appease the Palestinians. But all they have gotten for that is shelled, attacked and invaded. One Israeli fighter pilot was interviewed on the news tonight. If I could have smacked the reporter I would have. This pilot looked like a young kid. Fresh faced. The reporter asked him "how does it feel to know you are killing innocent civilians? Do you feel bad about that?" This poor kid said "Of course I feel bad about that. I try my best to hit the target and nothing more." And he went on to talk about how it is difficult not to kill civilians when the enemy is hiding right in their midst. But we have to get them and we are always sorry that others get hurt. Sad.

However, those children are pretty much lost to society by this point already, unless the brainwashing stops. Because from what they have been taught, they are nothing more than the next generation of terrorists among us. They are generally there, willingly, to throw rocks at the Jews if they have to, or take up arms if they can. It is a very sad, sad way of life, but it is the only one they have ever known. There is a cycle of hatred, mistrust and violence in the Middle East and until the schools that preach the hatred and violence and the joys of martyrdom are closed, we don't stand a chance at correcting it. We will only fear the results. I'm sure I sound harsh about the children, but it's not like growing up in America, not even in Europe. It's growing up in a world filled with hatred and violence. And I don't mean like here where we see it on the news, I mean they live it and breath it every single day! The photo clearly shows a despicable disregard for the children by Hamas.
