Why doesn't Israel bury them?

Americans hate seeing dead bodies on the teevee even for a single instant. That's true even if the dead are enemies they consider to be terrorists. So much of what Israel does is for the benefit of the US audience so I'm mystified why Israel lets the corpses of fighters rot where they fell.

    Israel has its own agenda as well. I mean they could have fougt and decisively win ages ago, but keeping the the opposition "alive" grants then funding. Its not like every decision Israel makes is for the U.S' benefit.

      That's what it may seem like, but it's not usually the case.

    I mean, they tend to view the Palestinians as animals, but even then, you at least call someone to deal with it

      An MSNBC was reporter was waking around in very small community in southern Israel and there were a couple corpses here and there and he said something like "I've never experienced such a strong feeling of death. The smell..." and shortly after a body was in the frame for a second.

        Yeah, this is why I don't watch any news channels

        Even the secondhand exposure I get from the tvs at the gym is mortifying

    Why were people hanged from gallows in the middle of town?
