Israeli Children Send Gifts To Lebanese Children
Friday, July 21, 2006
Israeli children sends gifts to Lebanese children



Israeli girls write messages on a shell at a heavy artillery position near Kiryat Shmona, in northern Israel, next to the Lebanese border, Monday, July 17, 2006


Thank you, Israel kids, we received your gifts. See�

Lebanese children receive them:








300 Killed, 1000 Wounded, One Million Displaced In 10 Days

While the Israeli aggression enters its tenth day, about 300 Lebanese people have been killed and over one thousand persons wounded in addition to the displacement of about one million Lebanese people including old men, women and children. Nor is this all, the Israeli bombardments burned down houses, power stations and food warehouses not to mention the infrastructure, something which could lead to a human disaster. As regards the Palestinian arena, the crimes are nearly the same, as the recent days witnessed a large number of air raids and Israeli aggressions on the Gaza Strip and West Bank which claimed the lives of no less than 100 Palestinians and hundreds of civilians were wounded. The bombardment also targeted the main power station in Gaza along with imposing a blockade on the Strip which led to the lack of food and medicine supplies and presages a human disaster.


The Act Of Miserable and Rotten Minds

Isn't it enough killing innocent people?????

Come on...

By the way:
Israeli aggression???
Are you kidding me?

It's ok when Lebanon kills hundreds of Israelis, but the second that Israel gets upset, they're "aggressive".
Why is Israel accused of killing innocent people, but not Lebanon, huh?
Check your numbers.

And how do you know that the picture is giving the whole story?
I agree, these images are very disturbing, but how do you know the messages aren't intended for the soldiers at the base, thanking the soldiers for protecting them?
Nowhere on the bombs does it say "To Lebanese children:" or anything. The messages were probably intended for the soldiers at the base to read, as a thank-you for their protection.
After all, some of the message is in Hebrew, and the Lebanese can't read Hebrew anyway (not that they'd see the message or anything). Only the soldiers can read Hebrew.
Wouldn't that make more sense?

All this war thing is so disgusting. I myself still don't believe in these pictures. The idea that little children are already being taught to hate people they don't even know makes me feel like crying.

I won't discuss what is going on because I haven't studied this question enough to make any comments. All I know is that lots of Lebaneses are running away from their country and coming to Brazil, and they are welcome.

I think muslims learned about propaganda from Josef Goebbels.

You�re right, this IS low, but I�m afraid to say they ARE bombing innocent children indeed.

The pictures of the hurt children are real, I think (sadly), but the pictures of the Israeli children are fake in some way.

Why the damn messages in the shells are written in English?

Man, every time I come to this topic (I don't know why I still come!), I have to scroll down the page as quickly as possible, before the pictures of the Lebanese children show.

Josef Goebbels was a kid compared to this insane Mariam. . . .

The question as to why the messages on the shells are written in English is a good one, Clarissa.
I think in Israel they speak Hebrew, so you would think these propaganda pictures are aimed at an English speaking audience.
Perhaps the propagandists have been too clever.

It's kind of hard to make out, but I think it reads:
To Hezrala with Love, from Israel

The OP is saying they were intended for Lebanese children? Lebanese children are working for Hezbolla? Shocked

Writing on munitions being used against an enemy is not new. On the atomic bomb used against Nagasaki was written "To Hirohito with love T.F. Farrell" (Hirohito was the Emperor of Japan at the time). It comes from a macabre sense of humor that develops in those who face death every day.

Yeah. Little boy, Fat Man. Funny nicknames for the two atomic bombs that caused 115.000 immediate deaths in Japan in 1945.
