Note on picture "5_400": Jonathan, a 20-year old soldier, is proud to be carrying the same assault rifle that his idol Baruch Goldstein used when he killed 29 Arabs in a mosque. The words "Kill them all, may God choose his own" are inscribed on Jonathan's magazine. A little boy is playing next to him, pretending to be a fighter dressed in a uniform jacket and with a beard painted on his face.

Hebron was a Jewish city for thousands of years, until the Arab riots of 1929 and subsequent ETHNIC CLEANSING.

We'll just take your word for that, shall we? Since there's nothing there to indicate that his idol is Baruch Goldstein, or that he's "proud" to be carrying his rifle, which he's probably using to defend himself and the boy from attack by Arab forces or terrorists. Note also the gas mask - why would he be wearing that?

Wow u have great eyesight. I see no such thing on his magazine.

Pretending to be a fighter in what way? He doesn't even carry a gun.


When were these pictures taken? Looks like the 67 war to me, but since u havent given us any context whatsoever, only twisted and hateful "interpretations" of some pictures that show absolutely nothing, i can only conclude that this post is worthless tosh.
