Terrorists Killed Civilians in Gaza

During the recent conflict between Israel and the Palestinians, you likely saw the photo of the dead boy from Gaza being held in the arms of Palestinian leaders.  It was a photo intended to draw fury against Israel for its brutal attacks against helpless civilians, resulting in the death of an innocent young boy.  You better believe the Israel haters were fired up after viewing the photo because it takes little to get the blood stirring.

Those Palestinians run an awfully good propaganda campaign against Israel.  Weeks later we find out the truth; the boy was killed by fellow Palestinians.  But, don't expect the average person to hear who was truly to blame for the boy's death.  That would ruin their "Israel is the villain" narrative which is being propagated throughout the corrupt media.

HRW CONFIRMS GAZA JIHADISTS KILLED GAZA BOY SHOWN IN ICONIC PHOTO OF EGYPT’S PM AND HAMAS’S HANIYEH

Human Rights Watch has finally acknowledged that jihadists killed civilians in Gaza during Operation Pillar of Defense when rockets being fired into Israel fell short. As if the truth matters to the corrupt and criminal media. I mean, really.It's about the victimhood narrative and the unending blood libels employed to turn people against the Jewish people.

They kill their own and use the killings to blame the Jews. That is the very definition of evil.

HRW Confirms Gaza Terrorists Killed Gaza Boy Shown in Iconic Photo of Egypt’s PM and Hamas’s Haniyeh Algemeiner, December 26, 2012

Human Rights Watch has acknowledged that terrorists killed civilians in Gaza during Operation Pillar of Defense when rockets being fired into Israel fell short.

“Rockets that fell short of their intended targets in Israel apparently killed at least two Palestinians in Gaza and wounded others,” Human Rights Watch said.

The specific case mentioned in the report involves the four year-old boy used as a political tool by Egyptian Prime Minister Hesham Kandil during his visit to Gaza.

Holding back tears, Kandil kissed the boy’s lifeless body as he was presented him by Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh. Kandil said,”What I saw today in the hospital, the wounded and the martyrs, the boy … whose blood is still on my hands and clothes, is something that we cannot keep silent about.” At the time Israel strongly denied being involved in the boy’s death.

In the report Human Rights Watch places blame squarely on terrorists in Gaza for the boy’s death. “Some rockets launched by Palestinian armed groups fell short and struck inside Gaza. On November 16, a rocket that appears to have been launched from within Gaza hit a crowded street in the Gazan town of Jabalya, killing a man, 23, and a boy, 4, and wounding five people.”

The report, released Monday, accuses terror groups in Gaza of violating the laws of war. It states: “Under the laws of war, parties to an armed conflict are required to take all feasible precautions to protect civilians under their control from the effects of attacks and not to place military targets in or near densely populated areas. Human Rights Watch has not been able to identify any instances in November in which a Palestinian armed group warned civilians to evacuate an area before a rocket launch.”

The report continues: “The rockets launched by Palestinian groups cannot be aimed precisely enough to target military objectives in or near civilian areas. Under the laws of war, such weapons are therefore indiscriminate when used against targets in population centers.”
