A Nation that does this to children of Palestine in 2 days, how can anyone argue they have any right to exist?
All of these children were murdered by Israel in two days, and this is not even a complete list of all the kids who died in the two days of January 4, 2009 and January 5, 2009.
And the way they died, whole families, some burned to death with white phosphorous, some waving white flags, some on their roofs, some trying to leave their house after ordered to do so and they were shot as they followed the orders to leave!
