“Every time a child cried, they would threaten him with a weapon to shut him up.”

She added: “I wanted to believe that Eitan would be well treated. Apparently not. Those people are monsters.”

Eitan’s whole family, including his mother and two sisters, aged 10 and 20 months, were abducted on what some in Israel now refer to as “Black Saturday”.

    When Eitan arrived in Gaza, he was reportedly hit by civilians, according to his aunt who spoke to his mother. “When he arrived in Gaza, civilians hit him. He is a 12-year-old child,” Cohen said.

    Absolutely despicable people.

      Those individuals who assault children are despicable. As are those who assault civilians and any who support the assaults. Although people seem to paint entire populations by the acts of few

        They paint entire populations based on their biases, and seek out examples to confirm their viewpoints.

      Hmmm, just checked your comments history and the high moral person here who feel strongly for despicable acts, doesn’t feel the same about the thousands of Plastenian kids who died or lost their families in the blind bombarding by IDF on Gaza even though its fundamentally worse. Nethier feel anything about the settlers attacking, and humiliatig plastenian in west bank while being portected by the IDF…

        Wut? Did they specifically comment they don’t care about Palestinians or are you doing some sort of guilt by absence thing?

        Did they comment on the merits of a rotary engine, or asynchronous API calls? What about top rack beehives? Low drop shoes? What about immersion style language learning or the role of cement in restoration masonry?

          You can’t point out hypocrisy without “whataboutism”. You could say it was an ad hominem, but not whataboutism, when the point is to show someone is a hypocrite.
