Garfield: "Garfield requests a source for Rachamim's statement that the so called "Cease Fire" was violated by HAMAS and not Israel...that HAMAS had constructed a tunnel 250 meters from Kissufim Crossing with the intent to kidnap yet another Israeli soldier.":

On both, type it in manually if it does not work because for some reason when parsed it will not link, but when you type it in manually it will.
As for your insult at the end of that post, next time you ask me for a source you might want to back off the vulgarisms since I will no longer oblige you, when you could just as easily have found such proof, and to boot insulted me. It is pointless for me to provide YOU with sources because I guarantee that you will not apologise for the insults, etc. Yet I provide it because others may wish to actually know about the situation as opposed to just engaging in partisan sniping.
Dexter: "Thank G-D noone was hurting a child...": Why did you not ALSO include a picture of the child who suffered severe shock just this morning when a HAMAS Qassam landed close to his front door?
See, those pictures you DID bother to post show only one side, and a side caused by their OWN People. Israel has a right AND a responsibility to protect ITS own People. The responsibility for THOSE children lies with THEIR leaders. They need to stop iniating brutal conflicts with Israel. Israel NEVER aims to harm children but Collateral Damage is a sad fact of armed conflict. The difference between Israel and the "Palestinians" is that Israel has firm objectives and does what it can to minimise such c. damage.
"Palestinians" on the other hand do not aim at all. They simply fire away and should they harm someone as they harmed an elderly woman this morning with a Qassam on a kibbutz in Sha'ar HaNegev , or the 7 people today alone who suffered catastrophic shock - including the little boy I mentioned just a while ago.
Soroka Hospital in Be'ersheva has the only permanant Shock treatment centre in the world. Wonder why that is? It is because HAMAS, PIJ, and PRC as the largest of the groups currently operating in aza have not even paid lip service to their supposed truce. Even as Israel announced today that it wishes to preserve the supposed "Cease Fire" with Gaza, Gazans were lobbing 46 shells into Israel Proper! In a 12 hour period, and yet people like you see fit to denigrate an entire nation despite the fact that is is literally surrounded by hostile enemies.
TP: Yes, it is certainly a laughing matter, full of chagrin and giggles. I wonder how you would be were it your family being targetted simply because of their ethnic or religious background. Would you be so glib TP? I imagine that you would do much as you do now, try to discuss the aituation but when confronted with facts that do not allow you to wrap your position in window dressing you would then act as if it did not happen and try to deflect attention with 3rd rate jokes?
"The kids in the pictures offered by Garfield show kids that had thrown pebbles at IDF armour from far away.": Riiiight. You made the same joke a couple of weeks back but fell strangley silent when I replied and offered that just that very day a young soldier was critically injured by one of those "pebbles."
As I had also mentioned, people HAVE DIED from them so make jokes, that is about the best your position can do so I will symapthise and not be too critical.
Grandma: "Collateral Damage is perfectly acceptable. ": I am sorry Grandma, which army did you say you served in? AS long as a true attempt is made to incur the least amount of civilian casualties it is 100% Legal.
