From your link.

On the outskirts of the Saja'iya neighborhood in the eastern part of Gaza City , the Israeli Air Force identified a launcher from which the rockets had been fired into Israel , positioned between two school buildings. The Israeli Air Force did not attack the launcher because of its proximity to school buildings .

Which is true? What Israel says or what Israel does?

GAZA, (PIC)-- The Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip over the past four days had completely destroyed ten housing units and partially damaged 350 others, the Palestinian government in Gaza said.

Yasser Al-Shanti, undersecretary of the ministry of housing and public works, told Quds Press that dozens of Palestinian citizens were displaced as a result of the Israeli attacks that targeted their buildings.

Terrorists are not mentioned in your link.

The link didn't say terrorists are covered, did it?

It did say this.....

The following are, however, excluded:

(1) Nationals of a State which is not bound by the Convention

Since "Palestine" isn't bound by the convention, it appears no "Palestinians" are covered persons.

So now Palestine is a state?

The original question was whether Israeli settlers were protected persons. It appears they are not. This changes the debate. Then the attacks by the Palestinian could not be classified as terrorism.

Of course this has been my position all along while others continue to play the terrorist card on the Palestinians.

So now Palestine is a state?

Isn't that your claim?

You haven't shown that Israelis targeted by Gaza rockets are settlers or that they are uncovered.

Art. 13. The provisions of Part II cover the whole of the populations of the countries in conflict, without any adverse distinction based, in particular, on race, nationality, religion or political opinion, and are intended to alleviate the sufferings caused by war.

Article 13 says Israeli civilians are protected.

Article 13 says Israeli civilians are protected.

Even when the definition of protected persons is set out in this way, it may seem rather complicated. Nevertheless, disregarding points of detail, it will be seen that there are two main classes of protected person: (1) ' enemy nationals ' within the national territory of each of the Parties to the conflict and (2) ' the whole population ' of occupied territories (excluding nationals of the Occupying Power).

Occupations are a different category than countries in conflict.

Israel does not occupy Gaza. So Israeli citizens are part of "the whole of the populations".

But keep trying to justify indiscriminate attacks on Israeli civilians.
Is shows everyone who you are.

Yes I have. You just refuse to see it.

Israel isn't occupying Gaza and Israeli civilians are protected.

Keep spinning.
 
How do you figure the targets of the rockets are "settlers"?

They are inside Palestine's borders but not inside Israel's borders.

They are inside Israels borders, Palestine's 'borders' are Gaza and the West Bank... you are just playing stupid.

In any case they are attacking civilians and not military. You can color it , sing and dance about it, it doesn't change the fact that they are attacking civilians.

Settlers are a necessary, integral, and active part of the occupation. If it were not for settlers Israel would be no more than an office in Tel Aviv.

This is not what civilized people do in the supposed name of freedom

Leon Klinghoffer

When his wife asked where he was, she was told he was taken to the infirmary. Instead, he was taken up on deck and shot twice, once in the back and once in the head. The ship's barber and a waiter were ordered to throw his body and wheelchair into the sea...

Leon Klinghoffer's body washed ashore in Syria, and was found on October 15 and returned to the United States. An autopsy showed that Leon had died by drowning, and not by the bullets that had been fired into him.
