www.haaretz.com ( left wing israeli online news) reports that Hamas authority praised the massacre of the family of five  amongst that the three months old baby girl and handed out candy to the residents

I did not hear of anyone protesting this murder 

my reaction is to remember that baby and not to forget her next time anyone 

criticises Israel's right to self defense its tiny microscopic strip of land 

I saw this on the news a couple days ago. This is really quite horrible. It's a monstrous act that unfortunately does not just take place in Israel or between Jews and Palestinians. Please don't generalize. It frees the culprit and enslaves a whole group of people.

'condemns' is what I really mean.  

In informational war Israel loses... I heard this from friend, not even at news...

 I wonder how you could have seen this on the news a couple of days ago 

when it happened on friday night two days ago..

i read the newspaper on Satuday and did not see it 

I dont think it happens everywhere , fortunately for humanity,  but everywhere it happens it should be condamned and never excused 

well as far as i am concerned all war is a loss 

but at least you heard it here 

i did not see this reported till now 

Have the culprits been caught, put on trial and convicted?

Having just returned from 8 days in Israel, whatever one feels regarding the political situation this act is abhorrent. We were extremely impressed by the very tight security in Jerusalem, Masada, Banias Falls [school classes accompanied by armed guard/teacher] and one wonders how much worse it would be if these tight security measures were not in place? As tourism is very business in Israel at present, we can only hope that the measures remain in place and that such acts as the murder of this family are few and far between.
