Oh hey, you mean like the Palestinians? Y’know, the ones living under the constant threat of missiles in the blockaded Gaza Strip? Those folks?
Riiiiiight, I forgot. It’s election time for Bibi.
Civilian casualties began to shoot up on Sunday, after Israel said it was stepping up attacks on the homes of suspected Hamas activists. After that warning, an Israeli missile flatted a two-story house in a residential area of Gaza City, killing at least 11 civilians, most of them women and children.

She was an American who fought for the freedom and solidarity of Palestine. She was crushed to death by an Israeli bulldozer while trying to protect a Palestinian home from being demolished in Gaza.
And she got zero MSM coverage in the States.

Children die in Israeli attack on Gaza, say doctors
Four Palestinian family members, including two children, have died in Gaza, in an Israeli artillery strike. Another 12 people were wounded when an Israeli tank shell hit a home on the eastern outskirts of Gaza City. Israeli Defence Minister Ehud Barak said it was an unfortunate mistake, but added that was “the price of dealing every day with the terrorists”. In a second attack, three people - all members of Islamic Jihad - were killed during an air strike, medics said. On Saturday, Palestinian militants fired a barrage of rockets over the frontier, prompting Israeli retaliation.
