Israel does not target civilians?

The one and only independent investigation of the attack on Gaza came up with far different conclusions. But, Rocco the propagandist knows that he only parrots Viscious Israeli Jew Occupier (VIGO) propaganda.

Physicians for Human Rights-Israel (PHR-Israel) recruited 8 independent international medical experts, who were not affiliated with either Israeli or Palestinian parties involved in the conflict. Experts were recruited in the fields of forensic pathology, emergency medicine, public health, paediatrics and paediatric intensive care, and health and human rights. Participants were chosen because of their professional expertise and their freedom from affiliation to any state or party in Israel and the occupied Palestinian territories (OPT), or to any relevant political body in any other country.

Just a gist of the report and how the VIJO managed to murder over a thousand women and children.

"• The overwhelming majority of injuries causing death or requiring hospitalisation seen by the Fact Finding Mission (FFM) ed. were the result of explosion or crush injuries, often multiple complex injuries; • A majority of hospitalised patients interviewed reported people being injured or killed while in, or very close to, their homes or those of relatives and neighbours; • Numerous cases in which - significant numbers of casualties including members of the same family and rescuers were killed or injured in a single incident; - ‘double tap’ or multiple consecutive strikes on a single location led to multiple civilian casualties and to injuries and deaths among rescuers; - heavy explosives were used in residential neighbourhoods, resulting in multiple civilian casualties; - emergency medical evacuation was not enabled and/or in which medical teams were killed or injured in the course of evacuation of the injured (notably in Shuja’iya, Gaza City); • At least one case in which a mine-breaching explosive device (tsefa shirion) was used in a residential street in Khuza’a, Khan Younis, causing massive destruction. • At least one case, of Shuhada’ Al Aqsa Hospital in Deir Al Balah, where several people were killed and injured in what was apparently a deliberate attack on the hospital on 21 July 2014. An in-depth study of the town of Khuza’a suggests that: • A convoy of hundreds of civilians came under fire while attempting to flee the town on 23 July 2014; • A medical clinic in which civilians and injured people were sheltering after this attack was hit by missiles, causing deaths and injuries; • A seriously injured 6-year-old child was not assisted and his evacuation was obstructed despite eye contact with troops on the ground on 24 July. He later died; • Civilians in a house occupied by Israeli soldiers suffered abuse and ill-treatment including beatings, denial of food and water, and use as human shields. One was shot dead at close range. 10 In addition, the FFM examined: • The strains placed on hospitals in Gaza during the attacks; • Problems with referral and evacuation of patients from Gaza hospitals to hospitals outside; • Long-term internal displacement in Gaza as a result of the partial or total destruction of about 18,000 homes; • Long-term psychosocial and mental health damage caused by this and previous wars; • An increased need for rehabilitation services and insufficient current resources in Gaza to meet them. Conclusions • The attacks were characterised by heavy and unpredictable bombardments of civilian neighbourhoods in a manner that failed to discriminate between legitimate targets and protected populations and caused widespread destruction of homes and civilian property. Such indiscriminate attacks, by aircraft, drones, artillery, tanks and gunships, were unlikely to have been the result of decisions made by individual soldiers or commanders; they must have entailed approval from top-level decision-makers in the Israeli military and/or government. • The initiators of the attacks, despite giving some prior warnings of these attacks, failed to take the requisite precautions that would effectively enable the safe evacuation of the civilian population, including provision of safe spaces and routes. As a result, there was no guaranteed safe space in the Gaza Strip, nor were there any safe escape routes from it. • In numerous cases double or multiple consecutive strikes on a single location led to multiple civilian casualties and to injuries and deaths among rescuers. • Coordination of medical evacuation was often denied and many attacks on medical teams and facilities were reported. It is not clear whether such contravention of medical neutrality was the result of a policy established by senior decision-makers, a general permissive atmosphere leading to the flouting of norms, or the result of individual choices made on the ground during armed clashes. • In Khuza’a, the reported conduct of specific troops in the area is indicative of......................"

NOPE the source is biased as it is funded from Islamic sources, try the Goldstone report that says the Palestinians committed more war crimes than Israel. Or even the UN that decreed that every rocket fired is a war crime.

Israel is killing civilian. Are you blind.
The question at-hand is whether Israel INTENTIONALLY TARGETS civilians, not whether they're killing them.

When Hamas embeds its war-assets amongst its civilian population, hiding behind the skirts of its women and children like cowards, casualties are inevitable.

Hamas does not hide "behind the skirts of it woamen and children". It is Zionist propaganda. The cowards are the Israelis, that intentional bomb residential apartment buildings housing women and children or schools, killing women and children by the thousands. Israel intentionally bombs civilians no amount of projection and propaganda mongering can change the facts as presented by the UN or various NGOs and human rights organizations.

"Well, you know, despite the Israeli ambassador’s claim that Israel deserves the Nobel Peace Prize for its extraordinary restraint and its extraordinary care to spare civilian lives, Human Rights Watch has seen from the ground, based on our investigations in Gaza, that that’s anything but the case. And no matter how many times the Israeli military spokesmen scream, "Human shields! Human shields!" most of the people being killed in Gaza are being killed because Israel is paying insufficient care to saving civilian lives. There’s been case after case in which Israel has used the wrong weaponry or has shot at people with many civilians around. And these, in our view, are war crimes."

Hamas usage of human shields is a well established and proven fact. Their cowardice knows no bounds.

By facts you mean Islamic facts don't you, and not proven unbiased non partisan facts that show the Palestinians are in fact behind the murders of the civilians.

This is so very simple.

Nope not a single Isrseli soldier in Gaza now. There is a blockade which has been deemed legal. No occupation and certainly not belligerent. The belligerent are the ones led by a terrorist group, not under occupation, with genocidal intentions and are constantly targeting Israeli civilians while hiding behind their own.

Hamas = ISIS of Gaza.
If Gaza isn't occupied, then why can't they leave?
(OBSERVATION)

Arab Leaders, Viewing Hamas as Worse Than Israel, Stay Silent
By DAVID D. KIRKPATRICKJULY 30, 2014

After the military ouster of the Islamist government in Cairo last year, Egypt has led a new coalition of Arab states — including Jordan, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates — that has effectively lined up with Israel in its fight against Hamas, the Islamist movement that controls the Gaza Strip. That, in turn, may have contributed to the failure of the antagonists to reach a negotiated cease-fire even after more than three weeks of bloodshed.

“The Arab states’ loathing and fear of political Islam is so strong that it outweighs their allergy to Benjamin Netanyahu,” the prime minister of Israel, said Aaron David Miller, a scholar at the Wilson Center in Washington and a former Middle East negotiator under several presidents.

Egypt sides with Israel in conflict with Hamas
Sarah Lynch, Special for USA TODAY 24 July 2014

Normally, Egyptians would be decrying Israel for the Palestinian death toll in Gaza, which is at more than 750 and rising. But Abou Ahmed Shehab, 60, who sells scarves at a sidewalk stand in central Cairo, was quick to attack Hamas.

"The reason for what's happening to our Palestinian brothers is because of Hamas," he says. "Hamas is an extremist group."

Arab journalist: Arab leaders pray Israel will get rid of Hamas once and for all
Written by Allen West on July 21, 2014

ut what I’m quite certain you haven’t heard or seen is the point of view from Gaza-born Arab journalist, Abd Al-Bari Atwan. According to Atwan, even Arab leaders are tired of Hamas and “pray Israel will get rid of Hamas once and for all.”
(COMMENT)

This is not a new phenomenon. Several Regional Arab governments have either kept quiet or publicly condemned Hamas for the crisis — while privately often expressing their support for Israel's bid to weaken the radical Palestinian group.

This dates back to a time before Operation Cast Lead. The Arab Regional governments understand that the Palestinian Islamic Resistance is intentionally igniting periodic conflicts to make it outwardly appear that the Palestinians are the victims.

This is a matter of quarantining a dangerous threat, that if given unrestrained freedoms, could set the region on fire.

Precision munitions strike legitimate military targets - war assets embedded too close to civilians.

Stop embedding war-assets in such close proximity and this (large-scale collateral casualties) all goes away.

...The Palestinians are under Occupation Kondie,just because you support this unlawful act...
It really doesn't matter. The Jews of Israel are engaged in Reconquista, and, given the few slivers of land remaining to be secured, their multi-generational goal is now in sight.

...you are just defending the indefensible (Zionist Terrorism)...
I'm not trying to defend it. There is never any defense for Reconquista. Just as there is never any defense for original Conquest. I merely support the soon-to-be Winner.

...by playing summantics sic with shabby words...
I thought they were entirely functional words, and that they did a good yeoman's job as a partisan exercise in applied logic.

...your opinion is rank,like much of the Zionist ramblings...
If that's meant to be a literary review... don't quit your day-job.

...You think you are being clever in front of the Pro-Zionist Lobby on here...
No... I think I'm one voice amongst many friends of Israel, who stand against a Muslim-Palestinian online propaganda machine; and their fifth-column tag-alongs.

...but I see it as someone who finds these piquant situations difficult to comprehend...
Oh, I comprehend the full range of options well enough on the macro level; it's just that there is only one solution (Israeli completion of their Reconquista) left on the table.

The time for creating a Palestinian State would have been anytime in the period 1948-1967, and, failing that, at various points between 1967 and 2000 - the beginning of the 2nd Intifada - which closed that window forevermore. Since then, and by now, there isn't enough contiguous land remaining in which to create a Palestinian State, anyway. It's over.

A one-state solution will not work; that window closed back in the 1950s or 1960s.

A two-state solution will not work; that window closed in 2000 with the 2nd Intifada.

That means that, ultimately, either the Israelis or the Palestinians have to go.

The Israelis have all the playing cards and all the muscle, so it won't be them.

Which means the Palestinians have to go.

As a matter of policy and practice, Israel does not intentionally target civilians in order to inflict civilian casualties, but the insistence of Hamas, et al, in continuing to embed war assets (rocket launchers, operations centers, staging areas, sally ports and tunnels, logistics centers, munitions caches, communications centers, etc.) in civilian residential neighborhoods, mosques, schools, hospitals and clinics, etc., have resulted in large numbers of unintentional but necessary civilian casualties, as the Israelis have prosecuted this ongoing asymmetrical warfare with their sworn mortal enemies.

As to how the Palestinians will leave...

They can go, carried out by their feet, or...

They can go, walking out, with their families and belongings, and with the prospect of a happy, safe, secure life and a prosperous future, elsewhere, to look forward to.

Life is almost always a better choice than Death.

The rag-tag so-called Palestinians need to choose Life.

Of course there is a justification...

It's called annihilating enemy military targets...

Given the power of the weapons required to do such a thing...

It is incumbent upon Hamas et al to ensure that they do not endanger their civilians by embedding war assets close enough to their civilians so as to trigger such collateral damage to civilian infrastructure or to trigger large numbers of civilian casualties.

The longer that Hamas et al continue to embed war assets amongst their civilians, the longer we will continue to see such unfortunate but necessary civilian casualties...

The answer is simple...

Move the war assets.

(COMMENT)

The name Palestine was a designated short title for the territory to which the Mandate applied. Paragraph 1, Palestine Order in Council, League of Nations.

Palestine was not an Arab State. It was a "legal entity" under the Administration of the designated Mandatory, appointed by the Allied Powers.

Palestine will continue to be a legal entity but it will still not be a sovereign state because it will not be immediately self-governing. The Arab Higher Committee rejected the offer presented by Resolution 181 (II), and the opportunity to participate in the Steps Preparatory to Independence.

On mid-night 14/15 May 1948, Jewish State [Part II, Section B - Boundaries, General Assembly Resolution 181 (II)] became a self-governing sovereignty. No establishment of an Arab State was coordinated.

Then provide the evidence and you will see Israel attacked by the rest of the world. Refuse and you will be seen as just another LYING propagandist.
FACT hamas breaches the Geneva conventions by placing rocket launchers in civilian areas
FACT hamas does this so that civilians will be killed
FACT Israel gives warning of where they will attack and hamas stops the citizens from leaving their homes
FACT Under international law hamas are the ones murdering the civilians and they should be dealt with by the ICC/ICJ
