Global Research:: Gaza: New York Times Serving Israel’s Aim, Lowering Civilian Deaths – “15- to 17-Year-Olds Aren’t Children”

Rudoren’s analysis suggests that all Palestinian males in Gaza between the ages of 15-60 are suspects – potential combatants who may deserve to be killed.
The article notes that, “34 percent of those killed in Gaza from July 6-31 were children, women, elderly or female victims of an unknown age.
The remaining deaths were a mix of male civilians and combatants, though breakdowns are disputed.
“ The statistics in the graphic accompanying the article demonstrate that the 34 percent includes only children between the ages of 0-14 years, and does not include 15-17 year olds.
Thus boys as young as 15-years-old fit into Rudoren’s “mix of male civilians and combatants.
” Also falling within Jodi Rudoren’s “mix of male civilians and combatants, though breakdowns are disputed” would be Anwar al-Za’anin, a staff member of Al Mezan Center for Human Rights, who was killed yesterday by an Israeli drone, and health worker Mohammad al-Abadlah, 32, just two of many examples.
