At least 12 people, including children, were killed when multiple rockets hit a village in Israeli-controlled Golan Heights Saturday, Israeli officials said, in an attack that has raised fears of a major escalation in the long-running conflict.

From the photos on twitter, it looks like it hit the only soccer field in town, landing between the field and the playground next to it. Hezbollah first claimed the attack, but now that there are 10 kids dead, and another several dozen kids injured they’ve backpedaled on it.

    That’s a straw man though. They didn’t say anything about the children. There’s children all over in the region being killed for no good reason. But people definitely don’t have a reason to have sympathy for the state of Israel on this as a whole.
