I saw both versions: the heavily edited one on the site I mentioned in my post to Zylka...and the real version (don't remember where, don't care to remember where).

The heavily edited version of the video in question (colors muted, sound as well, and blurry) came from the same site. I don't recall if their logo was present or not in the lower corner of the pic (watermark).

The site in question IS NOT for children, so that's why I'm not more clear. If you know the answer, DO NOT POST IT HERE!!! Keep it to yourself.

Maybe if you weern't such a flaming retard you might think about the fact that the Israelis do miss or get the wrong people from time to time, as well as continuing to fire missiles after ambulances show up, killing quite a few innocent people. Or is it just Palestinians don't count as human?

It's very simple:

Palestinians = targetting civilians
Israelis = not targetting civilians, but sometimes missing and hitting civilians by accident

If you changed it to usually not targetting non-combatants but often times getting them anyways, I'd agree with you.

Fact is, given the numbers of deaths, the Israelis are either sloppy and incompetent or simply don't care about non-combatant deaths.

I give up with Israel, I really do. It causes me to lose faith in politics. I dont care about the "who did whats" and the "well he started it" bull. If they dont want to live in peace with each other for various stupid reasons then that just shows that this world is being run by those with the minds of children.

Wouldn't it be nice to solve all our problems with a boxing match? Bush vs Saddam, Sharon vs Arafat, Whaleboy vs Kant...

Being sloppy does mean benig morally wrong. It means you are deliberately not taking care to minimize risk. I don't think anyone would argue that the Israeli army is incompetent. They are probably the most competent military in the world.

So now being sloppy when targetting legitimate military targets is WORSE than DELIBERATELY attacking CIVILIAN targets?

That's like saying a drunk who runs someone over is worse than someone who commits premeditated murder.

I don't recall writing worse. It depends on the context. When they hit the wrong car, that's sloppy. When they bomb an apartment building knowing that children are inside, that's first degree murder. It is just as bad as blowing up a bus. When they continue firing missiles at a car when people are trying to pull bodies out of it, that's first degree murder, and it is just as bad as blowing up a bus.

Sorry, no. Knowing human shieldism for those poor young men trying to pull out hamas leaders doesn't constitute comparison. You don't want to be blown the * up? You don't compromise the mission - you let Yasser's buddies burn.

but WHAT IF THE CAR HAD INNOCENTS!! OH THE POSSIBLE EXCEPTIONS FOR WEASELING

Right. Like the oh so horrible equative image of innocent human carrion inside of the wreckage.

You want context? Who exactly was in the car, Chegitz? Who was engulfed in flames? What exactly are mindful innocents doing trying to pull them out??

It's not the people in the car I give a crap about, except for when they get the wrong car. When a car blows up, the human thing to do is try and pull the people out, which is what people do. Then the next set of missiles explodes, and yuo have a group of innocents who are getting blown to pieces. Ambulances are off limits, but their presence hasn't stopped the Israelis from continuing to fire, and they've killed paramedics.

Let's put it this way. You're sitting at a cafe. A car blows up and you see people inside it. What are you going to do? If you're like most people, your instinct will be to pull them to safety, if possible.

Let's put it this way, instead. Are you sitting in downtown pleasantville - or the Gaza strip? Is the atmosphere one of general peace - or where terrorist leaders are being constantly blown up in their cars by apache? Of course, situation doesn't help when hacking out false comparisons

Then it does strike as a bit odd that the Palestinian casualties are double that of Israelis. (Also numbers aside, no fancy videos about that - damn Palestinians caught in the technological middle ages - but there are some truely disturbing pictures of 2 year old Palestinians meeting their maker or eternal darkness. )

Yeah, whatever. Both sides are murderous and evil. Both sides target civilians (one more than the other) or don't care when civilians are in the way. Zylka even justifies the murder of Palestinian civilians because they're trying to save someone's life. The whole purpose of this thread is to demonize a whole group of people.

I'm monkeywrenching it.

That's the most important thing to consider. If the Israelis were so innocent, Palestinian deaths would be much lower.

To be fair though, the Israelis aren't as bad as they used to be. Before the latest uprising, Israeli to Palestinian death ratios were 1 to 10 over the preceeding forty years. Now it's only 1 to 2.

Look on the raw numbers. It's mainly because the Pals got much "better" at killing Jews.
