After giving it some thought, i can say with 100% certainty that at least two of these four pictures have nothing to do with this conflict (i also highly doubt that the other two pics have anything to do with this conflict, but can not prove it with 100% certainty). Here is my proof: 1) the picture of a girl in a headlock - the soldier is wearing a uniform of the israeli border guard. No such soldiers were deployed in gaza during this conflict. 2) the picture of the woman being approached by jews - there have not been any civilian jews in gaza since 2005.
Edit: after looking closely, i can prove that another one of these pictures was not taken during this conflict: 3) the picture of the woman being lifted by a group of soldiers - at least two of the soldiers are wearing winter coats. There is NO WAY that a soldier would be wearing a winter coat during the israeli summer. Trust me on this.
This was my point about context. There are absolutely terrible things happening in gaza. To post pictures that have nothing to do with the conflict is horrible misdirection (and if you ask me, hurts your cause...).
Sharp eye.I think its important to question and look at all images posted.In this Media age it's all about perception and sometimes the truth gets kicked aside.Both sides are guilty of manipulating the media/Social media to there respective benefit.

Rafie, in my post I posted that 2 of the pics aren't in gaza, but that doesn't mean they didn't happen or aren't appalling. It's everyday life in Palestine.
can we agree on a 24 hour cease picture agreement? lets say 3pm eastern cell phone time today until 3pm eastern cellphone time tomrw? you have 10 minutes to post away.
I posted this a few days back and don't recall seeing an answer. Does anyone have any suggestions as to why the ten-year truce conditions were delivered as opposed to a proposal for independence?
Freeing all the prisoners that were arrested after the killing of the three youths.
Lifting the siege and opening the border crossings to commerce and people.
Establishing an international seaport and airport which would be under U.N. supervision.
Increasing the permitted fishing zone to 10 kilometers.
Internationalizing the Rafah Crossing and placing it under the supervision of the U.N. and some Arab nations.
International forces on the borders.
Easing conditions for permits to pray at the Al Aqsa Mosque.
Prohibition on Israeli interference in the reconciliation agreement.
Reestablishing an industrial zone and improvements in further economic development in the Gaza Strip.
I disagree with what they've asked for. Israel - who allowed for the death of over 1,500 human beings in the name of the security of their citizens - are incapable based on their own vendetta against Hamas of opening the border crossings to commerce and people. The same logic applies as well in regards to the withdrawal of Israeli tanks. Traffic in and out would quickly become just as restricted as it is now, and all of a sudden, things would be back right now because Hamas will not cease the resistance until the Israeli presence in Palestinian life is missing, and Israeli presence in Palestinian life will not go anywhere until Hamas ceases to resist.
Asking for the right to govern Gaza and the West Bank independently, on the other hand, has similar results with some notable exceptions: -Freeing all the prisoners: this would be a matter of contention. If Palestine is to exist as a nation, they would have to possess a prison: the prisoners could be transferred to Palestinian prisons run with international assistance. -Lifting the siege and opening the border crossings to commerce and people: this could only happen with international supervision. -Israeli settlements would have to be dismounted and removed from Gaza and the West Bank -International accountability for terrorist attacks would reside solely with Hamas. Liability would be shifted from Israel to the Palestinian Unity government in its entirety.
Any ideas as to why it was decided to ask for the former and not the latter?

a friend chimed in and took the guy to task too. next thing i know i woke up the next day and all of that dude's posts were deleted and he not only unfriended me, but blocked me.
My pleasure.
You don't need friends like that.
I came very close to deleting someone on my FB over it too. I've known him a long time, but he spouts a lot of utter shite on this issue, and he's ended up making a fool of himself - with my help - on a couple of occasions now. But he's actually not as bad as that 'friend' of yours.
perhaps a bit smug of me, but right before you started posting B , I suggest Gimme introduce the two of you.

That's what happens when you have scared brain washed kids in uniform doing your dirty work. The soldiers are in there late teens to early 20's. Look at that little girl, bravely walking, doesn't even look like she cares if she dies. They've sucked the soul right out of her body. Emptiness in her face. So sad.

yeah you are right. i don't need friends like that. i have a whole different impression of him now. i can't imagine the things he is teaching his daughter....
