Palestinian Casualties - The Root Cause.

From: Martin D. Stern, Hanover Gardens, Salford. I WONDER where Brian Lewis (The Yorkshire Post, August 6) managed to find a group of Israeli people chanting “No schools are needed in Gaza because there will soon be no children”, but the implication that they are typical is a gross slander. Such fringe groups are disowned by the vast majority of Israelis.That “too many places where children gather have been bombed” is a consequence of Hamas’s use of schools, hospitals, mosques and apartment blocks for the storage of munitions, digging of cross-border attack tunnels and rocket launching – themselves clear war crimes – with the deliberate intention that there will be civilian casualties.This is the primary reason for the death and maiming of children in Gaza, not the efforts of the Israeli army to dislodge those shooting rockets at Israeli civilians.
