With God On Their Side

Crap.
An Israeli airstrike Sunday killed at least 50 people - more than half children - in a southern Lebanese village, the deadliest attack in 19 days of fighting.

That would be 25 children. I wonder if they were writing on the rocket's tips like the Israeli children were.



In the public relations battle brewing on-line, there is a new eye to the center of the storm surrounding the war with Hizbullah - a series of photos showing Israeli children writing messages on shells meant for targets in Lebanon.

Questions over the photos' authenticity have been put to rest by authorities that were present during the incident, which occurred on July 17 near the northern border. The mostly local children had been brought to see the shells by their parents.

I must add that I fully support Israel, its right to exist, its right to defend itself in a manner consistent with an understanding of proportionality.
