If this is your criteria for shooting a child, I can only thank God you are not serving in the military. I'd like to know how many soldiers have been killed from a child throwing a grenade at them. The thought is almost laughable, if not so tragic. I guess you missed my other post TOO:

"The IDF has been killing young Palestinian as long as the boys their Parents and Pal leaders have been using them as shock troops. Sending them out to Riot ineterspersed with PA 'policeman'/Killers. .... Your 'poor little boys:

If I were in a position where I had to serve and protect and someone threw a projectile at me they’d be shot. How would I know that it isn’t a grenade or explosive device being thrown at me? The age of the thrower is irrelevant!

Watch it. Produced originally for PBS, due to the bombardment of threats from the Jewish American community it went largely unshown. Same holds true for "The Accused", produced by the BBC about the Sabra and Shatila massacres. The lid is on but it has been loosened.

Israel's Children are the TARGET
 

The IDF has been killing young Palestinian boys as long as the boys have been throwing rocks at them. The difference between the killing of these young Palestinian boys and the body bombers is that for each Palestinian killed there is an IDF soldier carefully, methodically aiming his weapon at this child, contemplating it before pulling the trigger. The bomber in a desperate, irrational act randomly kills those around him, in an attempt to stop the killing of his own people in the only way he knows how. It is only done by a person who has given up hope. Quite a different situation from the IDF soldier who will be tanning in Miami in a few months.

There is never justification for killing children. Never. And I don't think you want to turn to the British press to fight your battle. I can send you dozens of articles condemning brutality, so let's not start that. Isrealis are defending themselves. If the Palestinians want to use their own children as human shields for propaganda purposes.... so be it.... but blame no one else.

The Palestinans TARGET children, unlike Isrealis. SEE THE TITLE ARTICLE of this string
