DAVID GREGORY: Let me ask you about the price to Israel, this ongoing conflict. The staggering number of dead civilians on the Palestinian side in Gaza and the fact that just this week you had condemnation from around the world by the targeting of a U.N. school that killed children and those civilians who were fleeing a safe place to go in the fighting. Was this a mistake on the part of Israel even though the U.N. says this was clearly marked and that the Israeli forces knew the GPS coordinates of this school? 

BENJAMIN NETANYAHU: Well, first of all, Hamas is responsible for the death of civilians. We're not targeting a single civilian. We're responding to Hamas action and we're telling the civilians to leave. Hamas is telling them to stay. Why is it telling them to stay? Because it wants to pile up their own dead bodies. They not only want to kill our people, they want to sacrifice their own people. 

GREGORY: But where can they go? You say they should leave. Where can they reasonably go? 

NETANYAHU: I'll get to it. I’ll tell you, there are plenty of places they can go to but Hamas is making sure that they don't go anywhere. Now, let me tell you about the school. Secretary General of the United Nations before this incident took place, said that, admitted that two U.N. schools in Gaza were used to stockpile rockets, and he condemned Hamas -- he condemned Hamas for allowing, turning these schools into military targets, legitimate military targets. Now we still do not target schools.
These schools, the [sic] of these schools were used to attack us. Our forces responded, but our initial investigation now doesn't show that it's our fire, it actually shows that it may have been Hamas rocket fire. That's still being investigated. But the important thing to understand is that the reason we have civilians killed is not because Israel is targeting civilians but because Hamas is using civilians as human shields. We use missiles to protect our people. They use their people to protect their missiles.

-> It was shocking to hear Bibi make such spurious claims on Meet the Press this morning. No moral responsibility whatsoever.

Can you specifically point out which claims are spurious?  

Is Ban ki moon's statement on un schools being used as rocket storage places spurious?

Is hamas asking gaza people to stay in their locations after Israeli warnings spurious?

Please educate us with facts instead of bombastic rhetoric.

why is CD butthurting over palestinians? there must be something in those kebabs. if this were the seventies one can almost see him wearing bellbottoms, che t-shirt and joining those lefty extremist orgs that used to bomb cafes to proclaim solidarity with his palestinians compatriots. alas such things are no longer in vogue Sad

that there was no tangible evidence found to backup Netanyahu's claims that U.N. school was used to stockpile rockets. In fact those kids were waiting outside for buses to transport them to another location when bombs were dropped on them.
