Yes, Mr. Shaw.

"...the army said..."


"The military says..."

"stating facts. Of course, you can include your views, as comment is free, but facts are sacred.


---------------------------------------------------------------------
"The soldiers were not defending themselves. Nobody was endangered – neither Israeli citizens nor the soldiers. "
---------------------------------------------------------------------
" “hundreds of rioters” tried to burn the fence and infiltrate Israel. It says the crowd approached the fence and threw grenades, explosives, firebombs and rocks as they tried to set the fence on fire. It says troops opened fire “in accordance with the rules of engagement” and halted the crowd."

So, if it were the SOLDIERS who "threw grenades, explosives, firebombs and rocks" you would consider that "Nobody was endangered"??






I thought the only way to determine facts, when not there, is to look at what BOTH sides say, and try to reason out what ACTUALLY happened. You seem to indicate yo will only listen to one side, and accept their statements as "fact" without any other consideration.
