What happened to the baby? According to the article, Jumaa received first aid immediately in his village but then he had to be evacuated to Darwish Nazzal hospital in Qalqiliya after the severity of his injuries were realized.

If there are any updates on the babys condition, I will post what I learn.

And where does the tear gas come from, that Israel uses to attack babies with?

"On the same day that Bethlehem&#8217;s minister of tourism noted that the US government provided $400,000 to decorate the city for Christmas, local activists brought a few more US-sponsored ornaments to show to visitors in this West Bank town at the height of its tourist season. The activists delivered used tear gas grenades &#8212;*that had been fired by Israeli forces at Palestinian youth less than two kilometers away in Aida Refugee Camp that same day &#8212;*and hung them on a tree in Manger Square. One activist from Aida Camp was arrested for his participation in the action by Palestinian police, but released after a few hours."

Sherri - you only cut and pasted a portion of the article.

An Israeli spokeswoman said that "confrontations" had broken out in the area between residents and soldiers after locals "hurled rocks" at them.

So could it be that, as we see so often, "Palestinian" arabs create the problems they later whine about?

It was Israel's raid. It is their responsibility.

 

[Alfalfa]

But I agree, the palis need to quit using children as shields not only because it is despicable but also because the jew/israelis/zionists don't give a shit anyway.

They shoot first and ask for child body counts later...

Then have a party when it hits the over/under.

That's a bit like claiming that when Israeli children are injured in clashes - such as by stone throwers - they created the problem by being there in occupied territory.

None of those kids had any choice about it. I can't imagine the effect of tear gas on a one-month old infant.

It was Israel's raid. It is their responsibility.

The islamist propaganda site never identified why the raid was conducted.

Were islamist terrorists, as so often happens, hiding behind civilians?

Why do islamist cowards put civilians at risk? Is there an expectation that islamist terrorist sympathizers will be duped?

 

[P F Tinmore]

What kind of a society uses children as shields in order to achieve temporary propaganda advantage?

Israel attacks Palestinians in their neighborhoods and in their homes (as this child was) where children are normally present.

That human shield thing is just so much Israeli bullshit.

 

[MHunterB]

As usual, taking only portions of an article tells only PART of the story. The IDF didn't just flip a coin and decide to 'invade' a particular location on a whim, as the OP duplicitously suggests.

And while tear gas isn't pleasant - it is not specifically lethal, as the rockets INDISCRIMINATELY launched into Israel from Gaza, for example.

As for the tear gas being manufactured in the US, SO WHAT????? Lots of nations make the stuff - and use it on their very own civilians. (If some fool had brought a month-old baby to some of the 'anti-war' marches in the US, there could have been a similar injury then.)

But I expect almost any occasion can be turned to 'let's demonize Israel' by those who wish to promote such hatred. And it also gives them the chance to spit venom about 'Zionists' and 'pro-Israelis'.

We all have choices to make, and investing endless hours in distorting already biased 'reports' in order to vilify and demonize whole populations is just one I wouldn't make..... It's not 'confronting injustice': it's perpetrating injustice.

NONE. That's not what's going on. I can't cure you of willful blindness....... You appear to believe that the one old man you quote in your siggy represents that entire society. He does - like the Westboro Baptist Church represents Christendom.

That's a bit like not addressing the issue.

A "raid" by IDF troops would have been prompted by some bit of intelligence data or an active investigation. If the "Palestinian" terrorists baited the IDF forces, knowing full well there would be a response to aggression by "Pal" arabs, why make excuses for the "Pal" arabs when they got a response from the IDF, as they expected?

What a disgusting thing to say Alfie. The child is one month old

BTW Alfie, in another thread, you criticized the source for being too pro Zionist, and you used that to claim the article was false..

Why are you not doing the same for this ? Ma'an aganecy is an extremely pro - Palestinian propaganda site.
