Just about everybody is distressed concerning the civilian casualties in Gaza - that is, except the gunmen. They can have little concern otherwise they wouldn't create their HQ's or supply depots next to or close to civilian accommodation and accept that innocent people will be killed. Or, do the civilians deliberately protect or be in close proximity to the gunmen to help them fight another day. If that is the case, they are as much in the front line as the gunmen. If none of these apply, the bottom line is that in modern warfare there will always be collateral damage and innocent casualties.
Frodsham........ I live in the UK and I would join A protest on the side of Israel ( and by the way I am not Jewish) Why are people not protesting about Hamas firing rockets on Israel knowing full well that Israels response will result in many of their citizens being killed. I believe they do this deliberately. They sacrifice their own, including women and children, to gain sympathy for their cause.
STOP HAMAS AND THE KILLING WILL STOP
