    You conclude a story from a pic, do you?

    You would need to show that they were killing their own and then deliberately making propaganda out of it. That is your accusation. Now you need to prove it. There is no need to be offensive.

    No, if you know that they killed him themselves (which we do) but then used him on a state's official's visit and displayed him for the press. That is disgusting. Sorry if that statement offends you and not that photo of a dead child.

    Posts like this epitomise the decline of neoZionist propaganda and its former influence over those subjected to it.

    Stand by for some false allegations of antisemitism designed to silence criticism.

    OK, that is what I asked you to show me in my first post to you. There is no way of knowing that from the photo. It is apparently from HRW but I can't find it there. You are only using your imagination unless you can back it up. You need to show that he was killed by his own, which may be the truth and that they knew the same.

    I was referring to your vulgar insults which I notice you are continuing.

    Well I have done another search and I can't find any reputable source for this and certainly not a link to HRW saying it ...so I wonder who is exploiting what. I eventually found an Indian link - but it's source was jhad watch.

    There, if we can now apparently draw an entire and definite story, from a pic, that came from a site that gives a platform to creeps like AD and AF, what does that pic say?

    :p

    How strange.

    Earler, same sort of thing happened to me, funnily enough, on yet another 'Muslim thread'.

    Ran the headline of it through Google, nothing from the BBC etc, or the first page, first three results were..

    A) A link to a blog B) A link to this site C) A racist hate site.

    The source of the report that the boy was killed by Palestinian rocket fire is HRW. NOT the article itself.

    Yes.

    Rather than one which, when run through Google, took me back to A) A Blog B) PF C) A racist site, against blacks.

    Alexa has been asking you all along for the proof that you claim you have that the boy referred to by HRW is the very same boy whose corpse was presented to the Egyptian PM. You say you “know”, so provide the evidence. Is it that there was only one 4 year old boy in Gaza?

    When you have provided your evidence and it has been verified, then we will get off your case about the evidence.

    Other factors remain to be debated though.

    There was no mention of anti-semitism in the post you quoted. But it seems you copy and paste the same response to all posts.

    It is here, can't you find it or are you trying to make some kind of point by not finding it?

    LOL Ok so now the dead boy being kissed by a political leader is a different one. Anything to justify poor conduct and even worse propaganda.

    Why doesn't somebody simply provide a link to the full HRW report as requested early in the thread.

    I see no mention of the boy who features in the thread topic in that report. Where is the report in question ?

    Does anybody have the name of the boy in Dutch's - so far spurious- cut-and-paste and the name of the boy presented to Egypt's Prime Minister ?

    Indeed. I eventually found a link to an HRW article but nothing about this boy. I have seen nothing to prove that this boy was an accidental killing, never mind the suggestion in the OP. Both are necessary. I see lots of people saying HRW claimed the OP but no link to HRW actually doing this.

    I do however know that the baby of one of our BBC reporters was killed on the first night by an Israeli strike. Anyone bothered by that?

    Yes, I am. Condolences to his family and respect for his father's profession.

    The thread author was advised to cover his arse in post #6. This he has failed to do. The thread is a bare arse fest.

    Moon makes her point about the 4 year old boy almost certainly not being the same boy as in the Morsi picture. I would invite both Moon and Jack Napier to explain how wildly inaccurate rockettes that killed and wounded a few Israeli civilians at random (along with the two Palestineans) actually advanced the cause of the Palestineans in the slightest. Since continued rockette attacks have been the reason/excuse for the last few major IDF actions against Gaza that left the inhabitants with less economic strength, infrastructure and even reduced basic living conditions, apparently they want Gazans to suffer en masse in the hopes of provoking international support.

    The danger of this tactic is two-fold. One is that the stupidity and banal evil of the rockette attacks is self-evident and is priceless grist for the pro-Israel propaganda mill. A hundred civilians killed as collateral damage in strikes against "terrorists" probably have less weight than the image of one child killed playing in his front yard by a rockette. The other danger is that the reduction of Gazan capabilities locks them into a no-win situation. If they can't muster sufficient outside support all that suffering will have been for nothing, but if they somehow do get others to destroy Israel (without Israel nuking those others) just what will they have to rebuild Palestine with?

    Never claimed to have "proof" or claimed to "know" something. No other 4 yr old child and 23 yr old man was reported to have died in the town of Jebaliya. If you people want to convince yourselves that it was a different 4 and 23 yr old from Jebaliya, I couldn't care less.

    Be clear, not presumptive. I don't know if it was the same boy or not. My point is that neither does the author of the thread which claims that it is. Neither, apparently, do the authors of the cut-and-paste upon which the thread is based.

    You grossly underestimate the worldwide political capital of the Palestinian resistance. You should have noted the overwhelming support for it at the United Nations- 138 votes to 9. Palestinians have become associated with resistance to massive force and underhand diplomacy. They are heroes in the minds of the world's new generations. Whatever mistakes they make, in terms of human rights indiscretions, it can be demonstrated that the Zionists are far, far more culpable.

    Certainly, their munitions are generally inaccurate and of poor ' quality '. Most of their rockettes don't even have warheads. They are symbols of resistance and Palestinians who have lost family members, or entire families, are queuing up to commission a retaliatory strike against their torturers. They even make their own in any facility as yet undiscovered by America's satellite surveillance. Their resistance is also invaluable to their muslim brothers and sisters elsewhere. They have become living martyrs to an ideal- and that ideal is the reclamation of their rightful property from European invaders.
