I imagine that women and children can pull the trigger of an AK-47 and
that Hezbollah has trained women and children to fight.  Given what we
know women of the region are capable of, see suicide bombers in Israel
and Iraq, such a myopic perspective is quaint.


Judy again:

"To inflate the "civilian dead" statistics?  really?"

Really really.  Nothing gets the unwashed Arab masses as roiled as when
told that many innocent Arab women and children were slaughtered by the
Zionists.  To get them tossing candy in the streets, tell them that
Zionist women and children were blown to pieces.  Hezbollah 'won' by
ensuring both.
