Save Israel's Children

Save Israel's Children   http://www.saveisraelschildren.com/ is an organization that is trying to help families with children in an Israeli town on the border with Gaza.  Below is from their website.    S'derot: The Challenge S'derot is a small town in the southern part of Israel. The people of S'derot live under constant attack from Arab bombs and missiles. They have been bombarded by over 4,000 missiles to date, causing widespread damage, injuries, trauma, and death. People are frightened, angry, frustrated, and feel hopeless. They are unable to keep up a normal work schedule; their friends and relatives are afraid to attend their simchas; the high schools are intermittently closed, and there is no explanation to give to their children of why they have to live this way.  Jewish Families Respond Jewish families throughout the United States and Canada are standing up to this challenge and opening their homes to the children of S'derot, and other towns subjected to bombings from Israel's enemies. They are offering the stability of a Jewish home, the opportunity to attend school without bomb threats, and a normal, healthy, community atmosphere with other children about. This website is a forum to make the "shidduch" (match), between families wanting to send their children abroad, and families who are willing to provide a temporary "home" for these children, with the understanding that the respective families will make their own arrangements in the best interests of the children, taking into consideration schooling, language, medical insurance, transportation, and communications with their families, etc.   Empower the People   This "people to people" initiative will be the first time this has been done since WWII, when Germany bombed London, and London's children were taken in by families in the countryside, and cared for, until the British defeated the Germans. Israel's government has been unable to bring a halt to this situation for years. It is the mission of this website, and its initiators, to empower people to help themselves. A PEOPLE TO PEOPLE INITIATIVE SAVE THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL

I personally call upon the good people of Israel to open their homes to children in Palestine who are in danger of harm due to the conflict in Gaza and other areas of Israel and Palestine. Give a child in harms way a good home, a safe haven, and help them develop as normal children until the cycle of violence has ended.  

I'd still like an apology for calling me a racist, Hekmer.

Hamas is indeed a terrorist group.

Hamas suicide bombers have attacked buses filled with CHILDREN.

GOOD JOP MAN YOU ARE GOOD MAN AND I CALL ALL ARABS TO OPEN THIER HOUSES FOR WHO HAD BEEN HURT FROM ISRA'IL CHILDREN LIKE YOU TYPICALY.

YES, children 

The Haifa bus 37 suicide bombing was a terrorist attack carried out by Palestinian group Hamas. It occurred on March 5, 2003 when a Hamas member from Hebron detonated a bomb hidden underneath his clothes on a bus carrying many children and teenagers on their way back home from school. The bus exploded on Moria Ave., near the neighborhood of Carmeliya, in Haifa. 17 people lost their lives, and 53 were wounded.

On August 19, 2003, a Palestinian suicide bomber of Hamas' Hebron cell, apparently disguised as a Haredi Jew, detonated himself on a No. 2 Egged bus in Jerusalem's Shmuel Hanavi neighborhood. The double-length bus was crowded with Orthodox Jewish children coming back from the Western Wall. The huge explosion caused lethal damage, killing seven children and 16 adult civilians, and wounding over 130 people. The bomb was spiked with ball-bearings designed to increase injuries on the crowded bus. The Islamic militant group Hamas claimed responsibility for the attack and identified the attacker as a 29-year-old mosque preacher from the West Bank city of Hebron.

o kill a child any child is a terrorist act , I did the search and  saw that some members of

Hamas tried to bomb a bus school and  that’s not right to kill children because they are just children  and it done by some bad members in Hamas , that did not make the whole group terrorist .

Not TRIED…. DID blow up busses full of children. And Hamas, the organization, the LEADERSHIP, claims responsibility for these and other terrorist acts. It is not just "some bad members"

 
Just like the actions of the IDF are not just "some bad members" The military and government of Israel are responsible for the actions of the IDF. The leadership of Hamas is responsible for the actions of it's members, ESPECIALLY when they CLAIM responsibility.

Hamas are terrorists. Period.  

Israel is killing children every day, and I did not see you or gkissberth sympathy with them

I have sympathy for children anywhere who are killed in these conflicts. There have been other threads with many pictures and words about the victims in Gaza. The point of this thread was to hilight the actions of some kind people in other countries who are trying to help some other children in danger.

Do you think Israeli children are less deserving of sympathy because you disagree with or hate the government of the country they live in or their parents? 

fighting .

so , Lost soul, I understand that you don't have any sympathy for the adults who are killed by the suicide bombers of Hamas.

Can we agree, though that Hamas is a terrorist group, since they sponsor, train and take responsibility for suicide bombers?

Or do you still think it's just a few bad members? Remember, Hamas CLAIMS responsibility for those attacks. I'm not asking if they are justified or correct, just that we can agree on a definition of the acts. Are they acts of terrorism and is Hamas a terrorist organization?
