You are, at least in spirit of your posts, a Muslim. So, yes I am being civil. Had I wanted to insult you and your faith I would have said &#1575;&#1576;&#1606; &#1603;&#1604;&#1576; (&#1580;) &#1608;&#1604;&#1575;&#1583; &#1603;&#1604;&#1576;. Now, just pointing out that you are Muslim should not be an insult.

You words are once again onto another subject, and you have still failed to answer my questions. Once you have, then we can move forward with the rest of your provoking terms and propaganda.

Accusing me of being a Muslim simply because I expose Zionist crimes is not an act of civility, Pennylynn.

Muslims don't own and control all U.S. mainstream media as the Zionists do. They don't control any mainstream media. They don't have a large news network from which to spread propaganda as the Zionists have.

If Muslims were in the business of spreading propaganda, why haven't they bought up all the news media corporations instead of the Zionists?

It is absolutely necessary for the Zionists to control the news media. Otherwise their crimes against the world would be known by all and they would be called to account for the crimes.

According to http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-32894633, Amnesty International, Hamas guilty of torture and murder. Hamas forces in the Gaza Strip committed serious human rights abuses including abductions, torture and extra-judicial killings of Palestinian civilians in 2014, a report says.

Most of the victims were accused of collaborating with Israel, Amnesty International investigators report.

The report says no-one had been brought to account for the abuses, suggesting they were officially sanctioned.

Hamas said the report was biased and had relied on dubious sources.

The report, entitled Strangling Necks, covered the period of last summer's 50-day war between Israel and militants in Gaza.

It says while "Israeli forces were inflicting destruction and death on the people in Gaza, Hamas forces took the opportunity to ruthlessly settle scores".

Hamas spokesman Fawzi Barhoum told BBC Arabic the report was "highly politicised and lacks professionalism and credibility.

"It wasn't based on accounts from all parties nor did it listen to Hamas or even the police force in the Gaza Strip. It was just based on accounts from some sources, which is not enough to write a report of such calibre from such an international rights organization."

The fighting between Israel and the militants left at least 2,189 Palestinians dead, including more than 1,486 civilians, and 11,000 injured, according to the United Nations. On the Israeli side, 67 soldiers and six civilians were killed, with scores more wounded.

Amnesty has been deeply critical of the actions of both Israel and Palestinian militants in Gaza in recent reports, accusing both sides of abuses during the conflict. Israel and the Palestinians have rejected the allegations.

'Committed with impunity'

In the latest report, Amnesty says Hamas forces committed the abuses during Israel's military offensive, which began on 8 July and ended on 26 August 2014.

According to the report, at least 23 Palestinians were subjected to summary, extra-judicial executions. Most were already in prison, accused of acting for Israel, it says.

Amnesty has previously accused both sides of war crimes during the 2014 conflict

In addition, "perceived political opponents" of Hamas were abducted, tortured or assaulted - "particularly members of the rival Fatah party and former members of the Palestinian Authority security forces in Gaza".

"These abuses too were committed with impunity," the report says.

BBC Middle East correspondent Kevin Connelly says Hamas exercises undisputed authority within Gaza, and Amnesty's powerful report depicts an organization responding to the relentless pressure of Israeli military operations with a brutal campaign against its own enemies within.

In one incident, six men were shot dead outside a mosque as they knelt in hoods in front of a crowd of men, women, and children, the report says.

The killings were among a series of "spine-chilling actions, some of which amounted to war crimes, [and] were designed to exact revenge and spread fear across the Gaza Strip," Amnesty regional director Philip Luther said.

Amnesty called on the Palestinian authorities to "impartially and independently" investigate the allegations, and bring the perpetrators to justice.

I don't answer leading questions, especially those which are supported by photos which are blatant propaganda.

Here's a couple of questions for you with the answers provided:

How many Israelis have been killed by Hamas rockets in the last ten years? (32) How many of these were children? (4)

How many Palestinians in Gaza have been killed by Israeli bombing in the last ten years? (over 5,000) How many of these were children? (over 800)

In that case everyone should ignore the photos that you post. To respond,


2002 457
2003 213
2004 124
2005 53
2006 29
2007 13
2008 36
2009 6
2010 10
2011 21
2012 9
2013 7
2014 4

Perhaps a better question would be, how many of these people were murdered while there was a cease fire agreement? And who broke the agreements? And still a even better question, how many of the Palestinians were killed because Hamas' missiles fell short of their target?

June escalation

Between June 18-23 there was another round of escalation between Israel and the Palestinian terrorists in the Gaza Strip. It began after terrorist attacks along the Israeli-Egyptian border and after counterterrorism and prevention strikes carried out by IDF aircraft in the Gaza Strip. In response the terrorist organizations in the Gaza Strip initiated massive barrages of rockets targeting towns and villages in Israel's western Negev.

The greatest number of rockets landed on June 20, when about 70 rockets hit the western Negev. A total of 162 rockets fell during the six days of attacks. The rockets damaged a number of buildings, including a school in Sderot. Two civilians were wounded and several suffered slight injuries, while several had to be treated for shock.

Go into language preferences and select the language of choice. I have three separate keyboards and I have my system set up to recognize Hebrew, German, Russian, English and I had to add the Arabic so I could respond to Payne in his native tongue. But, that is how to do it. Oh, preference is under Control Panel if you are using Microsoft. And under system management if you ar4e using a Mac. If you speak the language, I suggest that you buy a language keyboard, you can find them online. Or, you can find them at Military Liquidation sales (sometimes).
