Dear Philip S.,

It certainly is a complex situation.
I wish that none of us had to take sides.
And yet we do. We choose whose side we're on.

Yet -

Most of us think that Hamas is a terrorist organisation.
Most of us support a two-state solution.
We feel sympathy for the Palestinians and the conditions
the people live under. Most of us wish that this conflict
would end.

The following link explains - picking a side:

Foxy,

While it is illegal to target medical personnel, the caveat is that they must be clearly defined as being so. Note that in spite of this, in conflicts many medical personnel are unintentional casualties.

This attempted storming of the Israeli border by Hamas using civilians as human shields needs to be investigated. No protest goes ahead in Gaza without the blessing of Hamas.

P.S. most of those killed are Hamas activists.

Not trying to be insensitive or callous in any way but I do want to ask this, is it proven absolutely that this poor woman was killed by Israeli fire or was it cross-fire ?
I'm asking this because it is recorded that the instigators use human shields to incite greater emotion/violence.

Dear Shadow Minister,

The young lady was wearing a medical uniform - she
was shot in the chest (hardly accidentally).
And an explanation is due.

Yes, just like the Israeli forces, so Hamas has a lot to
answer.

Read the link I gave earlier.

Taking sides in this issue helps no-one.

Nothing is proved, individual; it's a media report from very dubious sources. The incident might be true, or it might not. Remember, people from this area have a history of conning.

Dear individual,

Haaratz - the Israeli news agency - has reported it to be
true as have other Israeli sources. As has the LA Times,
The New York Times, and Reuters. Not dubious sources at
all.
