Israeli Tank Shells Hit Hospital
http:// www.bbc .co.uk/ news/wo rld-mid dle-eas t-28399 292
I know we have debated the Israeli/Palestinian situation many times before, and there I appreciate that there is wrong on both sides but how can the Israelis justify targeting a Hospital ? 5 dead and 70 injured.

I doubt that there is anything that is going on in Gaza today that the Israeli Government is unaware of. They have been flying drones over the territory for some considerable time, and there shouldn't be any room for uncertainty. And America should get off the fence and condemn both sides. The Israelis are about as pigheaded as it is possible to be but America appears to be the only voice that they listen to.
Auschwitz-Birkenau was a long time ago and its about time that Israel realised it.

/I think it right and proper to RETURN fire to wherever the attack came from./
even if it is from a gunman hiding in a group of children?
Really?
is that British Army Rules of Engagement?
/if you are coming under fire from ANY source, then they must be "taken out." /
So withdrawal and seeking another approach is not an option then?
The 'kiddies get it'!
In that case, the Israeli excuse for the invasion is a lie
'stopping Hamas attacks on Israel'
This ruthless 'slapping down' is clearly designed to incubate further Palestinian desperation and hatred of Israel up to the point where Palestinian attacks - feeble though they are - could justify full ethnic cleansing of Gaza which is obviously the long term Israeli objective

Zeuhl....yes....the "kiddies get it"
Remember Vietnam where the VietCong sent children loaded with explosive devices ran to the Americans....human booby traps?
Above us the waves:
A German U-Boat underneath a crowd of British torpedoed sailors, waving to be saved, but one option for the captain of the destroyer was to "depth charge" in the centre of them.
Decisions have to be made in the time of war...........difficult decisions.

//Over the last 20 years, the U.S. has been slowly phasing out economic aid to Israel and gradually replacing it with increased military aid. In 2007, the Bush Administration and the Israeli government agreed to a 10-year, $30 billion military aid package FY 2009 to FY 2018. In 2012, the U.S. began giving Israel $3.1 billion a year (or an average of $8.5 million a day) and promised to provide that amount every year through FY 2018
the Obama Administration gave $3.1 billion in Foreign Military Financing (FMF) for Israel for the Fiscal Year 2014. In addition, the U.S contributed $504 million to the joint U.S.-Israel Missile Defense Program during FY 2014. If we include that number, American taxpayers give Israel $9.9 million per day.//
