1. What was their slogan? 'Don't be evil?'

Looks like they don't care about not being evil any more.

3. where's your patriotism?

"evil" is really just about perspective.

just think about how much all those lucky cockroaches will have to eat over there!

9. Already yanked from the app store.

Unlike Apple, Google does not review or endorse any of the programs on its market. If someone complains that an app is violating their TOS or policies, they will yank it without warning to the developer. Rather than pre-authorizing every app and program, Google leaves it up to the community to identify offenders.

10. Sickening

Just like Israel

[George II]

11. We don't have enough of this violence, we need to create games for it?

Utterly disgusting!!!

And to the clown that said "just like Israel", Israel doesn't consider protecting themselves a "game"!

[stupidicus]

12. indeed George

What Israel does is similar to but not to be confused with those that gleefully take advantage of the "stand your ground" laws. It of course deosn't work for everyone/all scenarios, which is why all the war crimes talk now. And so what the ensuing "murder" likely wasn't necessary or warranted, and perhaps more all about the joy some derive from killing, no?

As I understand it, many of them get their vicarious thrills from the surrounding hills too.

13. Thread header is a bit misleading. The point is to NOT kill the women and children.

I assume that you lose points for killing the innocent. If you get points for killing the innocent please let me know.

[regnaD kciN]

14. No, if you drop bombs on the women and children...

...you get a pop-up Likud press secretary explaining to an eagerly-accepting crowd of reporters that it was actually misfired Hamas rockets that landed on them.

15. 1 out of 3 Android apps have spyware embedded that sends data to hackers in Asia.

Welcome to the 'open garden.'

[LiberalEsto]

16. This is completely sick

The people who developed this "game" and made it available, and the imbeciles who play it, sound like they need psychiatric care.

[Brigid]

18. OMG.

I don't care if the app has already been taken down --what kind of sick mind comes up with something like this? I want off of this planet.

[elias49]

19. From the sick mind of one Roman Shapiro apparently.

Doesn't sound like an Arab name to me.

[Brigid]

22. I get the idea.

We just so happen to have a popular deli here by that name. Bet you can guess what kind of deli it is.

20. Google removes 'Bomb Gaza' mobile game from online app store

A mobile phone game in which players pretend to be the Israeli military bombing Gaza has been removed from the Google app store, a spokesman for the internet firm said on Monday after a public backlash.

23. Pure SLEAZE

The mere fact that this game is pushed in the same market where kids download the latest "puppy rescue" saga is SICK.
