34 Children Killed by the Israeli Army this morning...

What? The Israelis do that whenever they want to pull some shit even they can't reasonably expect to get away with. Ever heard of the USS Liberty?
 
its unfortunate...
You have ISrael whos dealt with suicide bombing and the killing of the innocent for YEARS....But no muslim nations ever stood up and said this has got to stop...
So how do you think they feel?
Now you have Lebanon. Sort of divided on the whole soldier-kidnapping thing...So not every one of them represents terrorism..and innocent children even having to feel the vibrations in the ground from these bombs...its horrible. I seriously wish no innocent people had to suffer.
 
Dozens killed in Lebanon air raid

Lebanon described the bombing as a "heinous crime"

More than 54 civilians, at least 34 of them children, have been killed in a town in south Lebanon in the deadliest Israeli strike of the conflict so far.
Displaced families had been sheltering in the basement of a house in Qana, which was crushed after a direct hit.

Lebanon's prime minister denounced "Israeli war criminals" and cancelled talks with the US secretary of state.

Israel said it regretted the incident - but added that civilians had been warned to flee the village.

Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said Israel would "continue to act with no hesitation against Hezbollah" which has been firing rockets into Israel from southern Lebanon.

He is reported to have told US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice that Israel needs 10-14 days to press its offensive.

Attack condemned

Hundreds of Lebanese protesters staged a violent demonstration, ransacking the UN headquarters in Beirut, chanting slogans against the US and Israel and in support of the Hezbollah militants.

Lebanese soldiers are protecting the building.

Several countries have condemned the attack and renewed their calls for an immediate ceasefire - opposed by Israel, the US and UK.

May God have mercy on the children. They came here to escape the fighting

At an urgent meeting of the UN Security Council, Secretary General Kofi Annan urged members to strongly condemn the Qana attack and to put aside differences to call for an immediate ceasefire.

Lebanon's health minister now says about 750 people - mainly civilians - have been killed by Israeli action in Lebanon since their operations began 19 days ago.

Hezbollah has vowed to retaliate after the Qana attack. Several Katyusha rockets hit the border town of Kiryat Shemona on Sunday, wounding several people, in what residents described as the worst day so far.

A total of 51 Israelis, including at least 18 civilians, have been killed in the conflict, sparked by Hezbollah's capture of two Israeli soldiers in a cross-border raid on 12 July.

Intense bombing

Witnesses said the early-morning strike hit the three-storey building where families had been sheltering in the basement, crushing it sideways into an enormous crater.

One survivor said the "bombing was so intense that no-one could move".

Elderly, women and children were among those killed in the raid, which wrought destruction over a wide area.

Reporters spoke of survivors screaming in grief and anger, as some scrabbled through the debris with bare hands.

"We want this to stop," a villager shouted.

"May God have mercy on the children. They came here to escape the fighting."

Rescuers found the experience too much to cope with.

Our correspondent saw a Red Cross rescue worker sitting in the sunshine just sobbing, overcome with emotion.

Israel said the Shia militant group was responsible for the Qana strike, because it used the town to launch rockets.

The BBC's Jim Muir, in Qana, says many did not have the means - or were too frightened - to flee.

'Heinous crime'

Lebanese Prime Minister Fouad Siniora denounced Israel's "heinous crimes against civilians", and said there was "no room on this sad morning" for talks until Israel had halted its attacks.

He called for an "immediate, unconditional ceasefire", and praised Hezbollah militants who were "sacrificing their lives for Lebanon's independence".

The US secretary of state said she was "deeply saddened by the terrible loss of innocent life.

"We are also pushing for an urgent end to the current hostilities, but the views of the parties on how to achieve this are different," she said.

US officials say Ms Rice is to return to Washington on Monday to begin drafting a UN resolution aimed at ending the fighting.

Correspondents say the town holds bitter memories for the Lebanese.

Qana was the site of an Israeli bombing of a UN base in 1996 that killed more than 100 people sheltering there during Israel's "Grapes of Wrath" offensive, which was also aimed at destroying Hezbollah.
 
You think hezbollah will stop firing rockets into israel is the "UN" declares a cease fire?

I think we have come to the point where israel is finally sick and tired of being pushed around and want to do something about it.
 
Yes and even in the library it will say there is no distinguishing as to the which deaths are of innocent civilians and which deaths belong to combatants.
 
If that is how you gotta do it then yeah. How else you gonna stop these fuckers, ask them nicely? But if you cut off their mothers heads in front of them it might phase them.
 
June 9, it was fire from an Israeli gunboat not a rocket, my mistake. 8 Killed, including most of the Ghalia family. Heres Huda Ghalia, 10, the lone survivor crying over her dead family.
 
Yes, I know this. The other guy said that Hezbollah kidnapped the soldiers because Israel killed children, this is what I can't find information on and want to know where he got this from. I have never heard this before and didn't want to accuse him of making stuff up and therefore have been searching the internet and haven't come up with anything.
