I didn't want to watch it at first because the introduction showed a dead baby, but because my husband did, I eventually gave in and now am glad I did.

It is appalling that we all stand by and allow these innocent children and people to die.

It broke my heart to see this programme. The deaths of children that only wished to be given the same opportunity that we all take for granted.

Isn't it about time that the so-called "SUPERFORCES" tried to do something? I am 37 years old and can remember this conflict being on the news when I was a little girl. It brought tears to my eyes and now I am older, it is still breaking my heart.

When will we learn??

This programme was absolutely BRILLIANT by the way. It showed the war from a child's point of view. What amazed me was the doctor was begging for people to listen, but it seems people at the top don't care after all it is the poor people that suffer!!!!!!!!!

I watched it Melscorp. The Palestinian doctor who works in an Israeli hospital, God I really felt so awful for him. Loosing his daughters like that, and his Israeli so called friends standing by the attacks despite what he went through.

I saw it, yes, very hard viewing. Not sure that the doctors friends were in agreement with the bombing, tbh. But the Israeli govt man was just awful, words fail me. Someone should end up in the internaional court, Israel's response to Hamas definitely disproportionate. And so true that this will fuel more violence, how can anyone expect the Gazan people to forget this?

Very hard to watch. My DH is muslim so very much pro-palestinian but it just made me so sad that the people who are suffering - on both sides - are the innocent children who have grown and are going to grow up in this hatred of each other.

I agree with you TwoIfBySea. I don't know if I would STILL consider them "my friends" if I were him. He dedicated his life to saving and helping Israeli's and his OWN friends were so UNSUPPORTIVE (Trying to be polite)

The thing is, this is not the FIRST time Israel has attacked the people of Gaza like this and it won't be the last time, because no one seems be taking them to task. The Israeli official made my blood boil. It was if he was looking at a completely different situation. Words escape me!!!!
