"...In one instance, an Israeli sharpshooter killed a Palestinian woman and her two children..."

SAVAGE-STATE at its best: Accounts of Murder & Vandalism finally surface .... In McClatchy's, here

"The platoon commander let the family go, and told them to go to the right. The mother and the two children didn't understand and went to the left, but they forgot to tell the sharpshooter on the roof that they had let them go . . . " said an infantry squad leader, whom the papers didn't identify by name or unit in their Thursday editions."The sharpshooter saw a woman and children approaching him closer than the lines he was told no one should pass. He shot them straight away."Haaretz also quoted another unnamed squad leader as reporting that a company commander had ordered troops to shoot and kill an elderly woman who was walking on a road about 100 yards from a house the company had taken over.

McClatchy's Dion Nissenbaum reported on Jan. 27 that Israeli troops had killed two young girls who were carrying white flags as they tried to escape their home in Ezbt Abed Rabbo, a Gaza neighborhood overlooking the border with Israel shortly after Israeli ground forces moved in on Jan. 3...."
