or are you some kind of sicko?
Just a little something I found on Israel IndyMedia. Pics are from 3 or 4 days ago. That URL goes to a story about how they've been taking souvenir photos with their "kills".
Palestinians have photos of their kills?
Or are you for some reason under the impression that only the Israeli's would stoop to that level?
so Steveo:
Are you saying that taking souvenir kills is justified? You present no evidence that Palestinians actually do this you merely say that they do. (Admittedly I'm not convinced only from these pictures that the Israeli's do either) The pictures do show the death which the Israeli's have on their hands, at least two out of many hundreds over the last year. And I for one think that someone who spreads evidence about state sponsored terrorism, such as what Israel has always been founded on does not make someone a sicko as you seem to. I would prefer to know about murder than pretend its not happening because a state is "our ally".
the point of the post is obviously to suggest that the Israeli's are a bunch of ruthless barbarians.
However, it is basic propaganda. You look at what the one side as is doing, out of context, and without reference to what the other side is doing.
In fact, I have seen Palestinian publications with "souvenir" photos from the recent Sbarro killing, among others.
The poster, however, would like us to look only at what the Israelis are doing, and ignore what their adversaries are doing.
I posted these photos (found on the Israel IndyMedia site) basically because: A) I thought a little gruesome carnage might drive home the importance of getting out and doing something to stop the war, and b) to illustrate why some people may hate U.S. (us) after all, our tax dollars most likely are reponsible for those photos.
And, yes, I'm sure the Palestinians probably have their own souvenir photos; but at least I didn't pay for them.
Personally I find the whole idea of being soooo proud of yourself for taking somebody's head off ... quite revolting.
