That statement will make you popular with a few in ths forum:roll:;-)
Are you hinting that I approve of killing school-children? I even posted that the evac zone in Japan forgot the dogs and cows you dumb****.
Now if you are referencing to the term 'animal' you are correct there are many here who would agree with you, like the one who made the post this is a reply to (most likely although I can't recall if he has ever used the word animal for a person before)
Who owns the teddy, the 16 year old or the bus-driver or is it a plant to inspire more sympathy? Anti-tank shells are line of sight, in Gaza if you approach the fence to gather gravel the IDF will kill you, yet they would allow an person with an RGP to approach and then get away. That leaves room for manipulation, big time. I love the ;knee-jerk' responce, almost like it was planned and then executed at the first opportunity. Doesn't Israel bitch and whine when the shooting doesn't stop when they call a cease-fire? There could be legal matters involved in that sort of conduct, not that it could ever get prosecuted.

Just over two years after rocket fire from Gaza triggered a devastating Israeli military offensive in the territory, Israel and Gaza's Hamas rulers seemed on the brink of another round of intense violence.
In Thursday's attack, Gaza militants hit an Israeli school bus near the border with a guided anti-tank missile, injuring the driver and badly wounding a 16-year-old boy. Most of the schoolchildren on the bus got off shortly before the attack.
By Friday morning, Israel's ongoing retaliation had killed 10 Gazans -- five militants, a policeman and four civilians -- and wounded 45. The dead Friday included three civilians killed by Israeli tank fire and two militants killed in an air strike, both near the southern Gaza town of Khan Younis.
Hamas, which had largely held its fire since Israel's last major offensive, claimed responsibility for the bus attack.
Hamas said the rocket attack was in retaliation for the killing of three fighters in an airstrike earlier in the week. At around midnight Thursday, with Gaza rocked by explosions, the organization announced a cease-fire.
But the Israeli strikes continued, hitting Hamas facilities and smuggling tunnels. Electricity lines and transformers were damaged, causing power blackouts in some parts of the territory, according to Jamal Dardsawi, a spokesman for Gaza's Electric Distribution Company
