In the most densely populated place on earth, with no escape from this prison, it is amazing how for the Israelis, practically no civilians have been killed.
In other words, all who die in Gaza are "terrorists," and all who are yet living are "terrorists" who are hiding among civilians.
Yet there is NO place to hide when the 1.5 millions people are crammed inside a prison, making attacks like "shooting fish in a barrel."
This is not a "War," but an out right massacre, murder on agrand scale, accompained by the toal destruction of the environement.
"The attack occurred about 10 yards outside the school in northern Gaza. It was the second Israeli attack to strike a U.N. school in the past few hours. In an airstrike earlier, three Palestinians were killed at another school run by the U.N. Relief and Works Agency.
In both cases, the schools had been used as shelters for people displaced by Israel's offensive against Hamas militants. More than 500 people have been killed in the 11-day operation, including many civilians.
Israel has made no comment, but in the past it has accused Hamas — a militant group backed by Iran and Syria — of using schools, mosques and residential areas for cover."

Palestinian medical workers and witnesses said at least 40 people were dead, many of them children.
The attack occurred about 10 yards outside the school in northern Gaza. It was the second Israeli attack to strike a U.N. school in the past few hours. In an airstrike earlier, three Palestinians were killed at another school run by the U.N. Relief and Works Agency.

Israel has made no comment, but in the past it has accused Hamas — a militant group backed by Iran and Syria — of using schools, mosques and residential areas for cover.
A top U.N. humanitarian official has condemned the violence and demanded an investigation.
The schools were hit on a day of heavy clashes on the outskirts of Gaza City between Israeli troops and Palestinian militants that left dozens of people dead.
