As for a "trend" you're talking about a completely urban warfare scenario.  If you could pick a conflict terrain that most lends itself to blue on blue incidents it would be urban or jungle.  So, your options are that it was a mistake, or that the IDF knew who they were, decided they haven't been getting enough bad press in the West already, and decided to fire upon them to give all the "liberal" protestors yet another bloody shirt to waive.

Your wording seem to indicate you're leaning heavily towards the latter.  Also, what Luvnit posts has nothing to do with what I'm posting.

Again you misquote someone to make your point.

I specifically said :"..it is really hard to give them the benefit of the doubt...again." 


When I have proof that it was intentional I will say so.  When it looks suspicious/bad...again...I will say so.


I'm not there bombing anyone, I'm observing what happens and what the responses are.  I never said Israel couldn't defend itself.  I said their mission of "completely getting rid of Hamas" is foolish and will never happen unless they plan on killing everyone in the strip.  Has Hamas struck back since October?  Maybe the constant bombing is working and the civilian lives lost will be worth it?

War is worse than hell, and even the good guys can look bad and do bad things.

Israel is getting bad press everywhere...including IN Israel.  Is everyone wrong but Netanyahu and you?  Or is Netanyahu pushing for more and more attacks until he is satisfied personally?

What Luvnit said ties into someone providing the benefit of the doubt by saying even the aid workers might be anti-Israel. You never know, so if they died it may have been a good thing?
