PALESTINIAN YOUTH KIDNAPPED AND KILLED RAISES TENSION BETWEEN ISRAEL & PALESTINE

Where's the faux outrage about the THREE Jewish teenagers, kidnapped and killed, by Palestinians?

Do you know how Fatah - the Palestinian government - pictured it on their Facebook homepage?



Do you know what the red text says? "Master-stroke".

Did you know that one of these "rats" is an AMERICAN citizen?

So please spare us the fake outrage, and that applies to the BBC as well.

Iris I thought exactly the same when I saw it on the news last night

Fuzzy, I would never, ever condone the deliberate killing of anybody's child. That sort of "revenge" harms the people doing it as well as the innocent family at the other end. It solves nothing. But I am absolutely disgusted at the way the BBC portray it. These kids were kidnapped and killed for the sole reason that they were Jewish. They were the same age as my boy, it might just as easily have been him. But would anybody care? No, it would be okay to depict him as a rat on a fishing line and for the BBC to ignore or belittle it. And where are all these "moderate" Muslims, standing up and saying, this is just plain wrong? Racism at it's very worst, and to rub salt into it, we are paying for this with our licence fees!

I said to victor last night.....why didn't we see the grieving families off the Jewish boys that were murdered...I don't remember seeing them on tv YET we see the grieving parents off the other boy...I don't understand that

The BBC are a disgrace. I usually watch the ITV news, cannot bear the BBC news. Last night just happened to watching on that side when it came on.

Yes any killing is horrendous Iris, innocent young lives just taken. I just cannot understand why on BBC, one gets all the outrage for one but not another. Typical of them.

Good morning Iris.

I fully agree with you. No one (in their right minds that is) can condone the wanton killing of this Palestinian young man. That cancels out apparently the abduction and wanton killing of the three Israeli teenagers. There is no sense of proportion. If there were, none of the killings would have happened in the first place. the daily firing of rockets into Israel in spite of Hamas agreeing not to seems unimportant.

I know I am a cynic but I find it strange that of all the millions of Palestinians the Israeli police (assuming they were in fact Israeli) could find to give such a murderous beating to. He turns out to be an American citizen, and just happens to be related to the murdered boy. That they did not seem to know a camera was filming the whole thing, I also find suspicious. I'm not saying it wasn't genuine,, but it all seems a little pat to me. Whatever the eventual outcome the Israelis will be wrong.
