Apparently you ain’t parents
U.S. couple demands Israel take responsibility for severely wounding son
Let’s review, for all the useful idiots who go to Israel to protect terrorists: YOU ARE ENTERING A WAR ZONE. You’re taking the side of a people who use children as shields; if you think they won’t use you you’re dumber than you look.
Further helpful information: don’t throw rocks at armed soldiers who have to live in the warzone that you’re visiting before going back to your cush California life. They might be slightly on edge.

Their son was severly wounded when he arrived in Israel. Having no brain or mental acuity is pretty serious. And I have to wonder, why does Israel continue to let these pieces of liberal shit in?
Posted by: elana at March 24, 2009 at 11:57 amAn IDF spokesperson has said there was heavy stone-throwing and troops fired tear gas during the demonstration, though protesters said the stone-throwing was sporadic
Well, I suppose that changes everything then, doesn’t it?
Posted by: Gerard at March 24, 2009 at 12:40 pmI’ll just wait until Bryan assures us that the stone-throwing was sporadic. Then we’ll know that’s wrong.
Posted by: Confirmable at March 24, 2009 at 2:20 pmEvery once in while we agree. First, this guy was a 38 year old adult. Second, he was going to protest against Israel. Third, as you pointed out – you’re entering a war zone.
its akin to contributory negligence: when you knowingly put yourself in that situation, you’ve got to know the potential result… A shame he died. But the litigation from the parents – frivolous.
This reminds me of Nick Berg. You know, the guy who went to Iraq and got beheaded in a Jihadi snuff film. Then his dad blamed George Bush.

Wait, that was f-ed up, wasn’t it?
Well it’s not like they threw him in front of a bulldozer or anything!
Posted by: Perry Eidelbus at March 25, 2009 at 12:23 amI’d love that anonymous coward to show a post where I have defended stuff the palestinians do.
Posted by: bryan at March 25, 2009 at 2:48 amI will say in Bryan’s defense he does castigate the Palestinians about as often as the Israelis.
Posted by: James at March 25, 2009 at 8:02 amHow in the bonnie blue blazes did this guy even get a passport or allowed entrance into another country? You think stunts like this would have popped up on somebody’s radar screen:

Are you saying that whatever the IDF did was OK because it was a “war zone” and this guy was protesting against Israeli policy?
“Anderson did not throw any stones and was struck after he had returned to the village, witnesses said.”
The allegation is use of undue force. Maybe it’s right, maybe it’s wrong, but I don’t understand how you can dismiss it out of hand.
