Month-old child injured during Israeli raid in Kafr Qaddum

[abu afak]

The concept of "Semitic" peoples is derived from Biblical accounts of the origins of the cultures known to the ancient Hebrews. In an effort to categorise the peoples known to them, those closest to them in culture and language were generally deemed to be descended from their forefather Shem. Enemies were often said to be descendants of his cursed nephew, Canaan (even though Hebrew in reality, is itself a Canaanite language).

In Genesis 10:21–31, Shem is described as the father of Aram, Ashur, and Arpachshad: the Biblical ancestors of the Arabs, Aramaeans, Assyrians, Babylonians, Chaldeans, Sabaeans, and Hebrews, etc., all of whose languages are closely related; the language family containing them was therefore named "Semitic" by linguists.

The Canaanites, Edomites, Ugarites, Moabites, Ammonites, Amalekites and Amorites also spoke languages very closely related to Hebrew and attested in writing earlier, and are therefore termed Semitic in linguistics, despite being described in Genesis as sons of Ham (See Sons of Noah). Shem is also described in Genesis as the father of Elam and Lud (Lydians), however in actuality the Elamites were not Semitic, they spoke a language isolate, and the equally non Semitic Lydians spoke an Indo-European language.[3] Equally, the Hittites are described as sons of Ham, but in actuality they too spoke an Indo-European language, while their Hattian predecessors spoke a language isolate.

So true, but he thinks he is fooling everyone.

Why would words of a Hater, an intense Hater of Muslims, like yourself, influence a soul in this world?

Why doesn't someone who evidently has mental problems go for some help? With all the advancements that must have been made for people with mental illnesses, surely there is some medication which will help Mrs. Sherri deal with her problem.

Why don't you go get medication to assist you in addressing the topics of threads?

Your mind seems incapable of handling that task.

NO person is compelled to defend or support Israel's deliberate attacks on children in Palestine, but you do.

DO you have a conscience?

Semite,*Person speaking one of a group of related languages, presumably derived from a common language, Semitic (see*Semitic languages). The term came to include*Arabs, Akkadians, Canaanites, some Ethiopians, and*Aramaean*tribes including Hebrews. Semitic tribes migrated from the*Arabian Peninsula, beginning*c.*2500*bc, to the Mediterranean coast,*Mesopotamia, and the Nile River delta. In*Phoenicia, they became seafarers. In Mesopotamia, they blended with the civilization ofSumer. The Hebrews settled at last with other Semites in*Palestine.

Zionist colonist immigrants from Europe are not listed in that definition of Semite.

No person CAN defend or support such 'attacks' because they do not exist as the lying sherrthing keeps insisting on 'describing' them as 'deliberate targeting'. The sherriliar doesn't have a conscience about lying about Israelis because she's so filled with hate......

 

[MHunterB]

Semites are people who speak a Semitic language. Hebrew is a Semitic language.

Ani midaberet ivrit. It's apodictic that I am therefore a Semite.

The OP addresses a direct attack on a child inside a house.

Under international law, neither civilian houses or children are lawful targets in military operations.

 

[MHunterB]

Arabs are Semitic peoples.

ZIONIST colonists are the true Anti Semitic people of Palestine.

One of the most rabidly insane posts ever.

The OP is a crock. It's not possible to 'directly attack' a target which is unseen. And tear gas isn't inherently lethal, either - not even really dangerous, just unpleasant.

I guess the Lithium isn't working for Mrs. Sherri. She took a little break for a day and what does she do? It's back to the same old thread that has over 600- posts while innocent children are being murdered by her friends. It seems Mrs. Sherri has no conscience if she can overlook one of the biggest humanitarian crisis in this modern world. So, tell us, Ms. Sherri, what are your thoughts about Syria and the dead there?

Jews can see through stone wall and instead of targeting a fighter shooting at them they prefer to aim at children...... what nonsense!!!!

If palestinian fighter choose to hide near civilians, there will be a good probability some of those civilians will get hurt by either side. Even injuries by palestinians are blamed on Israel. You think brass from arab guns don't do damage to civilians, especially children? You think accidents assembling bombs don't kill other near by? You think children are not encouraged to run and collect shells and other scrap metal even while shooting is going on around them? A number of children in gaza have been killed from celebratory gun fire in the air at special events and funerals. Even richocet from palestinian gunfire have killed kids in their class rooms or bedrooms.
Israel might have guns that fire around corners but they don't have magic bullets that curve around walls in mid flight.

Child Sacrifice, Palestinian Style
REUVEN KORET (2002.11.13 )
Child Sacrifice, Palestinian Style | Capitalism MagazineCapitalism Magazine

Israel is criticized for alleged insensitivity to the risks of casualties among civilians, especially children, during counter-terrorist missions. But the tragedy of unintended casualties from justified military actions cannot be compared to a society’s deliberate abuse of its children as explosive devices.

Even in the first Intifada, the media glorified “children of the stones” as latter-day “Davids” struggling against the Israeli “Goliath.” Young Palestinians, armed with slings and stones, were on the front lines of the struggle against “occupation.” Behind them, often, stood Palestinian gunmen, sniping at Israeli troops from behind these human shields. The photographers focused, not surprisingly, on the children.

But what are we to make of the phenomenon of child martyrdom that has swept Palestinian society and become an essential core value of all social strata? In schools, on television, and in family homes, an entire society glorifies the martyr, celebrating those who die to kill Israelis and secure a place in a Paradise filled with waiting virgins.

Mothers appear with their sons in videos recorded before they go on suicide missions, praising their child’s dedication to die in Allah’s name. After the missions, the mothers ululate in pride for their dead Jew-killing children, saying that they brought children into the world for just this purpose. Fathers proudly claim having trained their sons for such missions, and pledge to send their remaining children to become martyrs, too.

Of course, one cannot dismiss the economic motivation for their celebration.
The Palestinian Authority, Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Iran are among the nations paying huge sums, by local standard, for each death and injury incurred in the Palestinian struggle. Encouraging one’s child to become a martyr, and collecting the subsequent compensation, is apparently an irresistible economic option for some struggling families.

But the economic incentive is subservient to the ideological and religious passion to kill the Israeli infidels, who Islamic preachers and spokesmen routinely dehumanize as “pigs” and “monkeys.” The world was shocked at the photograph of a small Palestinian tot dressed up by his parents in the costume of a suicide bomber, complete with an explosive belt.

While Palestinian spokespeople subsequently dismissed the photo of this “baby boomer” as a joke, one cannot dismiss the thousands of posters of young martyrs plastered all over the Palestinian territories. Palestinian polls reveal that overwhelming majorities in Gaza and the West Bank support suicide bombing. Arab leaders see “martyrdom operations” as the super weapon that can bring Israel down.

Child sacrifice has a long history in this region. Local tribes practiced this, perhaps the most characteristic expression of primitive idolatry. Against such abominations emerged a central monotheistic theme, represented in the Bible as Abraham not slaying Isaac and in the Koran as Ibrahim not slaying Ishmael. God commanded the Israelites to drive out and destroy the Molochites for their practice of infanticide. The Ishmaelites have now brought it back, reintroducing it to the region like a plague long thought eradicated.

Queen Silvia of Sweden, speaking in a meeting of the World Childhood Foundation at the United Nations, strongly criticized Palestinian parents for abusing their children in this way. “As a mother I’m very worried about this. I’d like to tell them to quit. This is very dangerous. The children should not take part.” She was unequivocal in her assignment of blame for this phenomenon.
“The Palestinian leaders are exploiting them and risking their lives in a political fight.”

The Palestinian response to all this, of course, is to blame it all on “the occupation.” Eliminate the occupation, they say, and this phenomenon, along with all other bad things, will go away. The trouble is that the “occupation” in Palestinian education is defined as the existence of a Jewish country anywhere between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea. The perverted education of these children creates a future force resistant to any compromise. Whatever the current or future Palestinian leadership decides, these children will have been brainwashed to celebrate murderous martyrdom.

A society that glories in sacrificing its own children is one that undermines utterly its own right to exist. Any short-term value Palestinians derive from blowing up its own kids to kill Israelis will reap the whirlwind of a justified Israeli reaction to this child-sacrifice. When Palestinians began sending boy and girl bombers into our cities, they planted the justification for Israel to consider any Palestinian civilian, however innocent, as a potential murderer, fit to kill in self-defense or to expel preemptively as a future threat, a ticking bomb. If Palestinians encourage their children to be ticking bombs, they can’t complain when we treat them accordingly.

Yesterday, a 17 year old Palestinian boy from Beit Jalla, (abu afak note: yes another "child") dropped off by his adult handler in central Jerusalem, became disoriented, walked in the wrong direction, and blew himself up in a virtually empty falafel stand. Today a bomber opted not to kill himself but contented himself with killing or maiming Israeli and foreign students on a campus dedicated to peaceful coexistence.

One wonders what in the world we can do to change this horrific phenomenon? All of this was triggered after the Palestinians took control of the local media and revamped the local school curricula to make martyrdom the highest value.

And what now: Shall we turn off their TVs? Replace their books? Jail their parents as child abusers? Rescue the kids so they can be deprogrammed from their murderous and suicidal brainwashing? Adopt them and invite foster families to raise them in Canada or Sweden? Something tells me the Canadians and Swedes would be less than enthusiastic about the idea.

In the Bible, God called on the ancient Israelites to drive the practitioners of child-sacrifice utterly from the land. Today we Israelis are being pushed, against our will and against our humanitarian instincts, to take extreme steps to try and protect our own children.

Golda Meir, a former Prime Minister of Israel, once said: “We will have peace with the Arabs when they love their children more than they hate us.” Tragically, that day seems far, far off.

When the Palestinians started sacrificing their own sons and daughters as a matter of policy, as a sacred ritual, they sacrificed their own future as a people and immolated their basic human rights.

Israelis yearned for a world where Palestinian kids are raised to live and learn to coexist with us. We were prepared to make painful sacrifices for such coexistence. But now, we are afraid, too many Palestinian parents are raising their babies to be boomers. This erases all hope and ends all chances of peace.

Regardless of their political sympathies, the people of the whole world must understand this one thing, and say it, loudly and clearly, to Palestinian society: “You are practicing child sacrifice. You are violating the basic human rights of innocent youth. You are abusing your kids. You are destroying their future. Until you stop, we won’t support you. We shun you.”

As long as Palestinian parents and teachers and leaders indoctrinate their kids to kill themselves to kill Israelis, they should expect no help from even the most merciful and open-minded and humane among us. We’ll be too busy protecting our own.

According to the World Organization Against Torture it was 24, with 12 of those having eye injuries. Some of those could be from fragments or brass from palestinian weapons. That does not mean they were shot in the head by Israelis. It just means 24 children got caught in the conflict.

Israel has attacked thousands of civilians and civilian objects like houses in Palestine.

THE IDF strikes civilians and civilian objects regularly, and these strikes regularly hurt and maim and kill civilians and destroy civilian property.
