Human Rights Watch: Hamas targeted civilians

...as we reported here many, many times during the Israeli defensive action in Gaza. But will the world take note and censure Hamas as it has censured Israel? Will it recognize the magnitude and effectiveness of the propaganda offensive against Israel? Don't hold your breath.

"Human rights group: Hamas targeted civilians," from AP, January 28 (thanks to George):

JERUSALEM - A leading human rights group has disputed Hamas claims that it did not target civilians during last year's Gaza war.

Human Rights Watch says Hamas' contention that it aimed its hundreds of rockets at Israeli military targets and only accidentally harmed civilians is contradicted by the facts.

Researcher Bill van Esveld said Thursday that most of the rockets hit civilian areas, suggesting Hamas deliberately targeted civilians. He said their actions amounted to war crimes....

Hamas targetted civilians; occasionally it might even try to strike a soldier or two. But the main target for Hamas has always been civilians.

"Human Rights Watch says Hamas' contention that it aimed its hundreds of rockets at Israeli military targets and only accidentally harmed civilians is contradicted by the facts."

These rockets are left over Soviet weapons from World War II. They have all the accuracy of a thrown rock. You can aim them at a general target, but you cannot zero in on anything in particular.

Hamas - modern day Nazis.

Allah cannot commit a war crime...

It may be obvious to many that Hamas is comprised of sewer rats, but they hate Israel more than they hate sewer rats...
In order to attack Israel by proxy, they feed, arm and train the sewer rats...Or in the case of the US, under Rasulullahhaha Obama, they get money, lots of it...
Cavorting and cooperating with sewer rats will get you fleas...Does Rasool itch? I don't know, but he's starting to squirm a lot...

Most news outlets are staffed by editors who pick stories off the wire services to fill all the space around the ads. Your average young journalism major is going to grab stuff depicting the US-backed Israeli thugs firing M4's at rock throwing palestinian "youth". Articles like the one above might actually be, like, true, but that doesn't make them relevant. Journalistic integrity, circa 2010.

Anybody in Britain read to file a law suit for War Crimes and seek arrest warrants for hamas leadership?

Human Rights Watch, protesting Hamas ?!?!?!?

Am I reading correctly?

I'm going to my window to check for flying pigs.

Israel caused greater destruction, killed more people & caused far greater destruction ( what threats do a flour mill or water treatment facilities pose to Israel?? ) so why is it that you are surprised they are getting the lions share of criticism? It has never been in question that Hamas was targetting civilians.

The whole world acknowledged it, every HR's organisation condemned. But as is typical of the gerat Robert Spencer, he has to do his utmost to downplay the suffering of Palestinians ( No humanitarian crisis in Gaza right Rob? )

Oi, bird brained sicko, had the Gaza Strip bordered China and these terrorists had been firing missiles into Chinese towns and cities, you'd learn the meaning of destruction. Of course to a simpering wussie like you, self-defence on the part of the Israelis isn't allowed. You are a vile Jew-hater, nothing less, and you must be sick that you were born 70 years too late to drop the Zyklon crystals into mthe showers at Auschwitz.

All suffering due the expatriate Muslims, they are receiving. I just watched video of HAMAS militant jihadists dragging children that they randomly grab to drag across a crossfire zone to keep the IDF from firing at them. Little children, being hung by their shoulder sockets so a jihadist can live to kill more people.

Why do Muslims care nothing about their children? What is it about Islam that makes children's lives so unimportant? Probably the same reason their mothers are unimportant, and that their names are dependent only on the name of their firstborn son. Not that it matters. You can't tell which woman is which, or which wife is which. Just another goat-shaped moist spot in which to emulate Mohammed.

You apologist fucks just disgust me. Why do you defend these jihadists? Are you just that stupid that you don't see who they are and what they stand for? They proclaim it from the mountaintops. I just have to assume you're one of those "people," and I use that term loosely, that just enjoys evil and other people's suffering.

I have no idea why it doesn't occur to your miniscule squirrel-trap mind that if the expat jihadists didn't actually lift their weapons and do things with them against other people, that Israel might not actually do anything back.

But that's not your agenda, is it? Back to loving evil, we are, and just wanting the Jews destroyed, as close to emulating Mohammed as you can get without thighing little girls. Can't rule that out, either, I guess.

These squatters and Jordanian and Egyptian door-scratchers, who have spent two generations now lying to those little children, telling them they have a homeland that belongs to someone else and not to them, but never mind....you're Muslims, so it all will belong to you eventually, inshallah.

They disgust.

You disgust.

You lack a human soul and any discernment.

Who ever raised you to think this was okay?

Must be Umm Phoenix...buried under her black bag, scared to buy a lipstick and ready to be tilled whenever her gypsy owner gets tired of the black bag in the other room.

Go away. I have had it with you Muslim fucks.

Oh, and nice to see you, undaunted.
