Real human rights groups have programs intended to ease the plight of children that are being exploited as child soldiers. I couldn't find anything on this group's website to indicate that they are engaged in anything more than disseminating the standard pro-Israeli propaganda.

Its not helpful to your agenda to try to portray desperate, impoverished children living under the most deplorably hopeless conditions of a life long military occupation, as 'terrorists' and 'killers'.

You distribute a great deal of propaganda, but no serious discussion. nt procon Aug 2016 #12

I just asked you a serious question that we could discuss. You punted. shira Aug 2016 #13

Can you get past the indoctrination to even see how that might sound? procon Aug 2016 #15

What do you think about the video from this week that HRW & Amnesty are ignoring? shira Aug 2016 #21

I think the guy in the clip is an idiot, and I wouldn't vote for him if I ever got the chance, but Little Tich Aug 2016 #25

I'm assuming like other NGO's who don't care about this child abuse.... shira Aug 2016 #30

I think it's really difficult to link the clip to child militants and human shields. Little Tich Aug 2016 #32

Right, Palestinian child abuse like in that video isn't a big deal. shira Aug 2016 #33
