11. Slaughter of the Innocent Continues, by Bill Templer

Posting 11. to The Jewish-Israeli Lobby, by Bill Templer

While we debate the arcane workings of U.S. policy and its ‘authors,’ the terrible slaughter by the IDF continues. Which is where our rage for justice must center. An 8-year-old Palestinian girl, little Hadil Ghraben, was killed April 10 by a shell fired by Israeli artillery at her house in Beit Lahiya, northern Gaza, while watching TV. Thirteen others were wounded, ranging from one year old to a kid of 17 — apparently all from the same family, all sitting or playing in the house. The photo is of some mourning relatives, including a tiny injured child. A 6-year-old boy was also killed over the weekend by IDF fire. This must be a minor highpoint for the IDF in the murder and maiming of the young nearly on the eve of Pessah. These abominations in the name of a voelkisch ideology are what never must be forgotten in this struggle.

    The shelling
    Of a civilian neighborhood
    Is a
    War crime.

    The murder of
    8-year old
    Hadil Raban
    By a tank shell

    Is a
    War crime.

    Those responsible
    Are Defense Minister
    Shaul Mofaz
    And Chief-of-Staff
    Dan Halutz.
