Playing with Propaganda

Human rights organizations with more credibility than you have documented the policy of deliberate attacks against civilians, including kids, by Israel.

What a remarkably disturbed, paranoid and dishonest individual you are. Human rights organizations with more credibility than you have documented individual and isolated cases of abuse and attacks againt civilians, including kids, by Israelis - soldiers and civilians. In no way has any credible organization claimed that it is the policy of the Israeli government or the Israeli Defense Forces that such abuse and attacks are standard or acceptable practice. In the scope of hundreds of thousands of daily interactions between Israelis and Palestinians, such cases constitute a minuscule percentage.

Israeli civil societies has worked to lower this percentage further, as evidenced by rejection and refutation of such incidents by the highest levels of the Israeli government. The Israeli system works. Your attempt to extrapolate the actions of a few individuals to hundreds of thousands of Israelis involved in security operations on a daily basis, in the midst of a complicated military and socio-political context, can only be described as propagandist, having little to do with reality.

Let's take an example...

I provided you with an interview by an Israeli journalist with an Israeli sniper published in an Israeli newspaper documenting the policy of shooting kids over the age of 12

Actually, you didn't. You posted a link to an anti-Israel site which does not provide a link back to the Haaretz article, and only posts a short snippet from the interview. I could not find the original Haaretz article, but I did find it reprinted.

Really, this goes to the bottom of everything you have sited - a selective us of facts for propaganda purposes. I don't blame you; it's convenient and fits readily into a preconceived agenda.

Let's suppose you are an honest person, with an honest desire for intellectual honesty. Your goal is not propaganda, but truth.

Read that article to me and tell me if it provides any missing context to the short snippet of the "interview" you were just referring to.

I want an honest response. You can skip the rhetoric. It's just you and me now; almost no one will read this far down, and this post will be cycled off the front page in a day or two.
