The new story from Israel is the discovery of 40 dead babies, some of them beheaded. If true, that is Nazi level of evil. However, I remember when Iraqis supposedly tossed babies out of incubators during the invasion of Kuwait. It was a big story. The young woman who testified was quite convincing. It wasn't true but it sure helped sway the American public for the Gulf War (1990-1991). Though I have seen pictures of dead Israelis and even tourists in this conflict, I have not seen the beheaded babies. Of course, I don't want to see beheaded babies, but the media has proved so unreliable that I don't believe it. What Palestinian could be so stupid as to not realize how devastating such an action would be?
If this is not true, then Israel is perpetrating one of the darkest public relations operations ever. As if what has been done was not bad enough, we'll stack on 40 dead babies. That will get the public on our side. That is a vile way to win support. Not as terrible as what Hamas has done, but still vile.
Again, I don't want to see pictures but, until I do, this is a bogus story.
