660 Palestinians Killed In 2006
| quote: |
| B'TSELEM, the Israeli Information Center for Human Rights in the Occupied Territories, has published its 2006 annual statistics. In a press release, the human rights group, which was established in 1989 to document human rights violations in the Occupied Territories, said this past year has witnessed "a deterioration in the human rights situation in the Occupied Territories, particularly in the increase in civilians killed and the destruction of houses and infrastructure in the Gaza Strip." At the same time, it added, "there was an improvement regarding violations of the right to life of Israeli civilians." Casualties --------------- (Figures in parenthesis indicate the total figure since the beginning of the intifada) According to B'Tselem's research, from January to December 27, 2006, Israeli security forces killed 660 (4005) Palestinians in the West Bank and in Israel . This includes 141 (811) minors. At least 322 (1920) of those killed did not take part in the hostilities at the time they were killed. Another 22 (210) were targets of assassinations. In the Gaza Strip alone, since the capture of Cpl. Gilad Shalit, Israeli forces killed 405 Palestinians, including 88 minors. Of these, 205 did not participate in the fighting when killed. Palestinians killed 17 (701) Israeli civilians in 2006, both in the West Bank and inside Israel . This includes 1 (119) minor. In addition, Palestinians killed 6 (316) members of the Israeli security forces. House Demolitions --------------------------- Israel demolished 292 houses military operations in the Occupied Territories , 279 of them in the Gaza Strip. These were home to 1,769 people. Some 80 of these demolitions were conducted after the home-owners received advance warning to the demolition. In addition, Israel demolished 42 homes in East Jerusalem that were built without a permit. These were home to about 80 people. Checkpoints and restrictions on movement -------------------------------------------------------------- Deep within the West Bank, Israel currently maintains 54 permanent checkpoints, staffed most of the time. 12 other checkpoints are within the city of Hebron . In addition, according to UN OCHA, there are on average some 160 flying checkpoints throughout the West Bank every week. In addition to the checkpoints, the Israeli military has erected hundreds of physical obstacles such as concrete blocks, dirt piles and trenches to restrict access to Palestinian communities. Palestinians have restricted access to some 41 roadways in the West Bank . Israelis have unlimited access to these roadways. Prisoners and Detainees ----------------------------------- As of November, Israel held 9,075 Palestinians in custody, including 345 minors. Of these, 738 (22 minors) were held in administrative detention, without trial and without knowing the charges against them. |

The only person that talks to Chuck Norris that way is Chuck Norris, and if he did I'd kick him in the head (which means I'd probably kill myself). So not even Chuck Norris would talk that way to Chuck Norris!
What an excellent oppurtunity to post this:

| The Times July 28, 2006 Israel backed by army of cyber-soldiers From Yonit Farago in Jerusalem WHILE Israel fights Hezbollah with tanks and aircraft, its supporters are campaigning on the internet. Israel�s Government has thrown its weight behind efforts by supporters to counter what it believes to be negative bias and a tide of pro-Arab propaganda. The Foreign Ministry has ordered trainee diplomats to track websites and chatrooms so that networks of US and European groups with hundreds of thousands of Jewish activists can place supportive messages. In the past week nearly 5,000 members of the World Union of Jewish Students (WUJS) have downloaded special �megaphone� software that alerts them to anti-Israeli chatrooms or internet polls to enable them to post contrary viewpoints. A student team in Jerusalem combs the web in a host of different languages to flag the sites so that those who have signed up can influence an opinion survey or the course of a debate. Jonny Cline, of the international student group, said that Jewish students and youth groups with their understanding of the web environment were ideally placed to present another side to the debate. �We�re saying to these people that if Israel is being bashed, don�t ignore it, change it,� Mr Cline said. �A poll like CNN�s takes just a few seconds to vote in, but if thousands take part the outcome will be changed. What�s vital is that the international face of the conflict is balanced.� Doron Barkat, 29, in Jerusalem, spends long nights trawling the web to try to swing the debate Israel�s way. �When I see internet polls for or against Israel I send out a mailing list to vote for Israel,� he said. �It can be that after 15 minutes there will be 400 votes for Israel. �It�s very satisfying. There are also forums where Lebanese and Israelis talk.� Israel�s Foreign Ministry must avoid direct involvement with the campaign but is in contact with international Jewish and evangelical Christian groups, distributing internet information packs. Amir Gissin, the Israeli Foreign Ministry�s public relations director, said: �The internet�s become a leading tool for news, shaping the world view of millions. Our problem is the foreign media shows Lebanese suffering, but not Israeli. We�re bypassing that filter by distributing pictures showing how northern Israelis suffer from Katyusha rocket attacks.� |
Is there something you are trying to persuade us about through all your posts. Is there a message, or maybe a feeling you have? Maybe there is country you don't like?
No, not exactly. But you seem to be doing a marvelous job of it. Nice try trying to put words in my mouth. Incase you didn't notice this before you decided to come here and start spamming with your bullshit:

I've been following this political forum for the last 2 years, and it seems like you are always posting negative facts about Israel. I'd like to know is there a reason why you post? What are you trying to persuade us of? What do you think needs to happen to create a better situation over there? No links, I just want to hear what you have to say.
