You should be more tolerant of UN numbers. After all, they are busy counting the take from their oil-for-food bribery investments.

Ironically the terrorist Palestinians only shoot rockets at and attack Israeli non combatant civilians being the brave jihadist for Allah that they are and the liberal news media is silent until Israel attacks the terrorists who are using babies as cover.

And of course these terrorist loving newspapers cant seem to figure why they are going belly up, who will tell them?

Personally, I just ignore the casualty stats. The MSM just Monicas any number handed them by Hamas or a UN front flunky for Hamas. Either way, they are bogus, unprovable numbers.

Hamas can’t even be honest who is a Jihadist and who is an uninvolved civilian.

If someone — George Bush, Ehud Barak, Barack Hussein Obama, just someone — said, “If you brave Islamic jihadists would quit hiding behind the skirts of your women, your women wouldn’t get killed,” maybe the point would be made.

Spot on, Dana. How come the death toll in Israel is still under ten while Palestinians are almost in the seven hundreds? The Israelis take care of their people during war times and Paletinians throw theirs in the line of fire. Another reason why they should be stamped out!

Mr Hitchcock: yes. Israel is responsible for any and all Palestinian deaths, period

Yes. Yes, they are. You saw what they did to me, right?

Is an Islamic woman who blows herself up in front of a hotel a militant or a civilian? And does her death count in the death toll for which Israel is responsible?

Let’s see here, 25% of 640 dead were civilians one day. The next day, only civilians died, making it 40% of 700, which is close enough to 400, since 700 is close enough to 1000 and 40% of 1000 is 400. It makes perfect sense to me.

Besides, modern math problems consist of:
Since 40% of 700 is 400, how does that make you feel?

my guess… anyone in a hospital that isnt in a uniform or chanting “death to Israel” is a civilian.

at least that is how the media thinks.
