people killed by Israeli missiles; 550
people killed by Hamas rockets; 8
(numbers given by Radio-Canada’s Téléjournal, yesterday night)
Sadly this is just how Hamas wants it. “Oh look we’re the victims here, they’re blowing up everyone…just ignore that we have been lobbing missiles for a month”
lego: Good article. You really can’t disagree with it.
The article by Richard Cohen cited by Oldlego is also in the Op-Ed page of the Washington Post today (6 Jan). Cohen is a regular columnist there and is considered more middle than left by many. He supported the Iraq invasion initially and changed his mind later.

Hamas may be the underdog, but they are incredibly coward. I mean, they are hiding behind women and children.
I blame the people of Gaza for not keeping their militants under control. They voted Hamas in as their government - THEY have the responsibility to control their party.
Y’all all miss the little a-rab terrorist in training is dropping his toy missle.
1MadMan; You guys voted for Bush-twice. You had the responsibility to control them, then!
lego: Nope, I saw that. And hte missile-logo t-shirt he’s wearing. A little irony there as we could read that the Israeli bomb dropping is considered as much a cause of he & his little buddies leaning that way later. It’s a tough situation. Israel must feel like they’re fighting a hydra–the trick is how do you kill it, or at least beat it down, without creating a bunch of new heads?
