The civilian killers should have gotten a few high fives out of that.


Israeli airstrikes have regularly hit crowded family homes since the start
of the war in Gaza, even in Rafah, which Israel declared a safe zone in October
but is now the next target of its devastating ground offensive.



Apparently Palestinians aren't fully human Voltaire2 Mar 3 #1
It could be quite intentional actually. David__77 Mar 3 #2
well it obviously is, but that even more so 'others' Palestinians into the subhuman category.. Voltaire2 Mar 3 #9
On whose part? Beastly Boy Mar 3 #39
What makes you think it's intentional? TexasDem69 Mar 3 #56
Here's a related article. David__77 Mar 3 #60

I doubt the people who killed the twins were Muslims. David__77 Mar 3 #8
Not saying the religion supports it necessarily. Just that many professed or apparent adherents RandomNumbers Mar 3 #12
You stated that Islamic law supports rape. David__77 Mar 3 #14
The poster did not state that. Stop it! Take a breath, man. Earth-shine Mar 3 #17
" Clearly there is no law in Islam against" is very clear. And a generalization about Muslims. David__77 Mar 3 #20
If you are trying to say the Islamic law's treatment of women is decent or justified, Demsrule86 Mar 3 #23
I was pointing out the post that claimed it supports rape, generalizing about Muslims. David__77 Mar 3 #25
That there is no law against does not imply there is one for. Earth-shine Mar 3 #24
Are you claiming Islamic law allows rape? David__77 Mar 3 #27
Good-bye David. You are just choosing to be difficult. Earth-shine Mar 3 #37

Sure, and I kill all the poor puppies at the ASPCA. Beastly Boy Mar 3 #44
What is your motivation in asserting that Islam supports rape? David__77 Mar 3 #45
First, it is not "Islam supports rape" Beastly Boy Mar 3 #46
Yes, you did say that Islam "allows rape" rather than "supports" rape. I hope you will reconsider this generalization. David__77 Mar 3 #47
I didn't say this. Beastly Boy Mar 3 #49
"It" is Islam. "A little bit" of rape is rape. It is a sweeping generalization of the religion of Islam. David__77 Mar 3 #50
It's as if you didn't read the Surah I quoted. Beastly Boy Mar 3 #53
"It allows rape just a little bit" is your conclusion and assertion, not a quote. It was about the religion of Islam. David__77 Mar 3 #55
If I were you, I wouldn't presume to speak for Islam. It was a reply to your rather uninformed post, for gawds sake! Beastly Boy Mar 3 #61
Islamic Law is terrible for women. And rape is one of the methods... Demsrule86 Mar 3 #22
Not really. But to make it clear, I did edit my post. RandomNumbers Mar 3 #30
I suggest to leave Islamic law out of it. David__77 Mar 3 #31
I wasn't referring to the twins - I'm comparing the treatment of "others" as sub-humans RandomNumbers Mar 3 #19
Extremist muslims see non-muslims as infidels, and therefore, less than human. Earth-shine Mar 3 #10
The post referenced Islam in general, not "extremist" Muslims. David__77 Mar 3 #13
I think you are misinterpreting both myself and the other poster. Earth-shine Mar 3 #15
The post stated that Islamic law supports rape. It was quite clear. David__77 Mar 3 #16
Okay, try reading with your glasses on. You are wrong! Earth-shine Mar 3 #18
What was the point about Islamic law and rape? David__77 Mar 3 #21
The point -- the rapes happened, and if they truly were religious men -- any religion -- how could this be? Earth-shine Mar 3 #29
You're just being obtuse now TexasDem69 Mar 3 #57
This story is about a woman and her two daughters. I see nothing wrong with the posting the story. David__77 Mar 3 #59
I did edit my post (like one second after posting) because I realized it could be taken wrong. RandomNumbers Mar 3 #26
I did not get sarcasm. David__77 Mar 3 #28
A more appropriate word than "sarcastic" is "ironic." Earth-shine Mar 3 #33
Thank you, that is indeed better. nt RandomNumbers Mar 3 #36
I suggest you to make a post on this, to provide a negative example of bigotry. David__77 Mar 3 #11
The two million of them who live in Israel certainly are. Beastly Boy Mar 3 #38
The 2.7 million palestinians in the occupied territories certainly don't. Voltaire2 Mar 3 #40
My point is both factual and relevant. Beastly Boy Mar 3 #42

This doesn't make less Hamas. It makes more. Earth-shine Mar 3 #3
Absolutely. This military campaign weakens Israel. And the US.. David__77 Mar 3 #6
