Superb report by Channel 4 news into the incident earlier this week, described by the UN’s top humanitarian official as appearing “to have all the elements of war crimes”, where Israeli soldiers corralled over 100 people into a single house, then repeatedly shelled that house and prevented ambulances and aid workers from accessing it for days while children lay starving by the corpses of their parents:

It is a time to hold Israel responsible for war crimes. Enough is enough. Stop genocide of Palestinian people! If nothing is done to stop it than we all are accomplices of this crime.
This is absolutely inhuman.
Holy shit.
Bull!@#$. Just another unconfirmed hearsay in the long string of lies Hamas invents for P.R. purposes. The ONLY democracy in the middle east and the army where each soldier is empowered to question and disobey orders that go against his or her conscience does not perform war crimes. If IDF didn’t value lives and didn’t try to hit only confirmed Hamas infastructure sites it would carpet-bomb the hell out of Gaza and there would be not 900 deaths but 90 thousand. Or more. Think about it. What the hell is the point going though all the trouble of “corraling” people somewhere if a couple missles fired into an apartment building could do the same job? You people need to learn to think critically. In Darfur, more than 100 people are killed daily via real war crimes. Where is international outcry? Where are the UN resolutions? Or is it that the world only cares that Jews not be allowed to defend themselves? NEVER AGAIN.
“Couple missles fired into an apartment building could do the same job?
No it not “a job” It is massacre and murder!
Killings of 900 men women or children is a crime no matter were it was done. I suppose since there is “100 people killed daily in Darfur” Israel can do the same. Critically thinking? Let’s see. How many israelis were killed vs Palestinians in last weeks? Sixteen israelis (incl 4 killed by “friendly fire”) and over 900 Palestinians plus 4000 wounded. What is your argument? On one side military machine armed by USA made sophisticated weaponry on the other people whit home made rockets and teenagers throwing stones. How about Palestinians right to defend themselves? Oh yes only Jews can defend themselves? And what are they fighting against? Oh yes stone throwing youths. UN resolutions? How many of them Israel has violated? 50-60? Illegal settelments on Palestinian land? Oh yes this land was given to Israelis by God 2000 years ego. So Israel must expel (read kill) all Palestinians since they refuse to die. The only Democracy in Middle East? Oh please. How about “roads for jews only” or 600 military check points in West Bank? How about 60 years of illegal occupation of Palestine? How many isreali houses were bulldozed by Palestinians? And how many palestinians homes were destroyed by israel? Not allowing journalists in to Gaza? What Israel is afraid of ? Democracy? Not allowing humanitarian help? Democracy? Treating 1mil israeli Arabs as second class citizens is very democratic indeed. P.R purposes? Israel show its real face so many times that one has to be blind or plain ignorant not to see what israel is trying to do. But you’re right NEVER AGAIN we will be fooled by israeli lies.
