So...obviously, "Islamic" terrorists regularly violate that particular passage in the Koran.
...As these Hamas and Islamic Jihad terrorists did as well...on purpose, specifically, civilians. All ages, genders, etc. Brutal murder.
Pretty sure there are strong prohibitions against murder in the Old Testament too.
While I'd agree that the Israeli government is not "innocent", I don't believe that as a policy matter the Israeli government nor Israeli citizens as a rule countenance or celebrate the intentional murder of civilians or any background.
There IS a moral difference.
IMO, that matters, though is not sufficient.
re Saddam, I'd never heard that rumor, but in our age of misinformation, disinformation, and outright lies, I'm not surprised that such would circulate among some.
Funny how so many apologists have a way of seeing things one way. No one here said there isn't Jihad terrorism. But you must understand that it exists because of foreign invasion and imperialism. After all, if some one broke into your house, usurped and proclaimed it as his own, What the heck would you do? Just sit there and applaud him?
There have been enough postings here of Israelis engaging in atrocities so I am not going to bother posting them again. It is obvious you would disregard them again in any case.
Yeah that Saddam story was a complete fabrication:
Amnesty International initially supported the story, but later issued a retraction. It stated that it "found no reliable evidence that Iraqi forces had caused the deaths of babies by removing them or ordering their removal from incubators."

I believe we discussed this inflammatory fairy tale at length in LP but you likely have forgotten about it over the years.
