ORIGINAL: thishereboi They might get more sympathy if they didn't keep strapping bombs on their kids and sending them out to die. That just doesn't sound like something would do if they honestly vaulued life. This post correctly identified the core issue of this thread - what is the value of human life. Sadly, that's about all it got correct. The Israeli apartheid 'justice' system tells us very clearly how much it values Palestinian lives - 2 Palestinian lives are worth 45 days (possibly less with remission) of the liberty of the IDF thug who committed the cold blooded murders. That [sentence] just doesn't sound like something a court would do if it honestly vaulued life. Murderers get life in most justice systems, sometimes execution. Who is the unspecified "they" here? Is it the Palestinian people? Or heaven forbid, Palestinian children? Is it the tiny bunch of extremists who engage in such abhorrent tactics? Or it the outrageous racist smear that all Palestinians are suicide bombers? Should we take all Israelis on the basis of Rabbi Kahane's ultra-right racism, violence and philosophy of racial (Jewish) supremacy? Why does the post weasel out of commenting directly on the OP? Does the poster agree with the travesty of justice being perpetrated here? The only people involved in the OP that merit the description "That just doesn't sound like something people would do if they honestly vaulued life." are those involved in the Israeli apartheid 'justice' system, which gives us more than enough proof to earn the description 'they don't honestly value human life'. This is a pathetic sentence that demonstrates the total contempt the Israeli apartheid 'justice' system has for Palestinian lives. The inability or unwillingness of the pro-Zionist responses to the OP to express any sympathy with the victims shows a cowardly callousness that is despicable. In their posts, Palestinian lives appear unworthy of a mention. Instead we are treated to some devious attempts at blame shifting. The argument (in as much as there is one) seems to be that the other side's atrocities justify Zionist atrocities, or perhaps more accurately. that Israeli atrocities are somehow less atrocious than Palestinian ones, that Israeli atrocities are 'purer' than Palestinian ones. A contemptible double standard to say the very very least. Apartheid is one of the most obscene vicious forms of government and justice ever conceived of and perpetrated. Yet the apologists for Zionism don't even rate it worthy of a mention. The 'sentences' here are so inadequate they are almost pats on the back of the IDF thug who murdered these poor women. That doesn't rate a mention either. Such silences are indicative of a posture that rates Palestinian lives so lowly they don't even deserve the facade of justice, let alone the substance.
