Cutting the grass in the theatre of war : Comments

By Junaid Cheema, published 30/7/2014

In Sderot, local Israelis pulled up chairs at hill tops to watch the bombing of Gaza. The spectators took happy snaps, shared popcorn and cheered; as the Israeli Military cut the grass - dealing death on Gaza.

Agreed Junaid and well said.
As the world watches and sits back in there comfy chairs/homes, Gaza is getting bombed. Nothing looks to be offlimits to these bloodthirsty israelís with the bombing of schools, hospitals, there only power plant. Bombing kids playing on the beach is so low let alone a hospital full of injured civilians.

Killarney:
As you might have already guessed, I'm a former soldier.
And as a former soldier, would return fire, with considerable interest, if and when fired on!
And no, there was never any pleasure in it, for someone trained and dedicated to saving people.
And no, at no time in any post, have I advocated nuking Gaza.
As usual, the first casualty of war is the truth, and reading your posts and the quite blatant verbals you appear to engage in, you are a prime example, of the first casualty!
I would however, use a few dozen bunker busters on it, if only to completely destroy the tunnel network, Hamas is using, in its endeavor to maximize casualties; in its own war on noncombatant civilians, its primary target!
What would you have the Jews do, open up their borders, to allow the daily dozen or so suicide bombers, or just not return fire when fired upon?
Or stop shooting down Hamas's rockets, which given still intact warheads, can and do explode, wherever they fall.
As one well known Philosopher would have said, the sun shines equally on the innocent and guilty.
And no, the nuclear bombs dropped by the allies was not the worst thing they could have done!
When they could have carpet/fire bombed Tokyo, and caused 100 times more innocent casualties; given Tokyo, was largely constructed of bamboo and paper, and once a wildfire was started, it couldn't have been stopped.
Hamas seem only able to focus on the Israeli response to their rockets; and have in just the last conflict, broken three ceasefires!
My problem with the madness personified that is Hamas; is, the Arab population only need keep their heads down and remain peaceful, and in just a decade or so, will outnumber the Jews in Israel as a voting demographic!
And that being so, control Israel, its military and inventory.
Compared to the entire course of total human history, a decade is but a quickly passing second or two!
Rhrosty.

NC,

<<Hadith..a human effort that can’t be flawless>>

Despite your ducking and weaving Hadiths form a very important foundation to Islamic thinking & practice . Surely you are not going to try and sell me on otherwise!

Further, if we are permitted to speak in terms which would see us hung drawn and quartered in most (Hadith respecting) Islamic polities -- ALL holy writings are the result of human effort & fantasy -- and flawed.

<< your religion vs my religion >>
No, NC, it is not the case of your religion versus my religion since I don't hold to any religion. I know that because I haven't swallowed the Leftist-Islamic Axis line about Israel you have (knee-jerked like) stereotyped me as a Jew, but I assure you it aint so. I have as many issues with exclusive rights for the Torah's chosen people as I have with that other chosen people that go under the title of the Ummah. But at least the Torahs chosen only claim exclusivity in the fertile crescent --the Ummah claim exclusivity where-ever they get the numbers!

<<I suggest you focus on the issue in the background of history ...>>
LOL .Even if we focus on history Islam is flawed, boasting one of the most bloody histories on record --and Hamas and co are doing their darndest to uphold that proud tradition (aided and abetted by one-eyed supports like you).

I suggest you read a bit more widely and start thinking outside the book!

nuts: JAyB you know in this country what you just said could see you hauled before our courts. It is discrimination and incitement at it's worst. But of course you are in Israel where it is okay.

No, nuts I'm in Australia. Australian, through & through. I must have hit a nerve somewhere. I guess the truth hurts & those committing atrocities' like Hamas supporters don't like the fact broadcast.

Just in case you missed them here they are again & some more to boot.

killarney: the horror of what the Israel is doing to the Gazan people, the total impunity with which Israel does it,and the pathological cognitive dissonance used to justify what Israel is doing.

Let me rewrite that.
The horror of what the Gazans are doing to Israeli people, the total impunity with which the Gazans do it, and the pathological cognitive dissonance used to justify what Hamas is doing.

It cuts both way Killarney. The total aim for Hamas is to destroy Israel & kill all its people. That's women, children & all. Didn't Golda Meir say, "we'll stop kill Palestinian children when they learn to love their children more than they hate us." Referring to the Palestinian practise of using children as human shields.

jb: What!? America gives Hamas 47 Millions Dollars to replenish its depleted Rockets & Arms supplies (Oh, sorry, Aid for the people)? Strange, Why?

No reply on this at all from our incumbent Jihadist supporters here. Junaid, dkit, NC, Chek, Nuts, Eren, Peacefulpeace.

@ jayb Your paranoid sociopathic comments describe your sick mental state. I don't support the killing of children therefore I must be a Hamas supporter? Shame on you!

"Do the Israeli have these camps & TV Programmes for their children? NO."

No they just say picturing dead Arabs makes them happy, while they play around with tanks and guns. Sponsored by IDF show and tell sessions. Here is a link, if you manage to pull your head out - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Qp67KehlVGU

Which world do you live in and who let you out of me mental institution?

This article punctures a hole the size of the Milky Way through the dominant narrative peddled on the mainstream news media and the key official world forums about

a) 'little miss Israel' being victimized, terrorised and provoked by the big, bad and black 'spider' called Hamas.
-> "There have been continuous casualties nearly every month since the turn of the millennium with a heavily lopsided ratio........So how is provocation possible, if there is no real cessation in violence?"
-> "So when the sound of the war machines briefly stop, the shrieks of the giant constructions machines start, building new (Israeli) settlements on shattered Palestinian lives"

b) the 'innately violent' nature of the Palestinian 'provocateurs' hell bent on creating carnage and mayhem who will find another excuse to fight and kill once the Israel-Palestinian issue is resolved

-> "One can't help but wonder if the children of the original peaceful Intifada can grow up to be Hamas, what will the children of Israel's bloody Neo-Coliseum become?"

Unfortunately, the fact of the matter is

-> "Silent grass sits even lower than insects on the food chain, an analogy into the plight of the Palestinians - no one hears no one cares"

Muslims all over the world owe it to themselves and to the poor Palestinians, to NOT be defined by the ‘identities’ being constructed for them, that complement the dominant narrative i.e. ISIS, ISIL, AQIM to name a few

Humans all over the world owe it to themselves to not let these efforts to dehumanise an entire populace succeed and see this conflict for what it truly is, about the 'right' of the Zionist state of Israel to grow with absolutely impunity and mow down anything and anyone that comes in the way.
