In as much as the latter is a direct result of the former, you're right.
Israeli civilians killed in a suicide attack are casualties of Palestine's war.
And apparently, this needs to be pointed out: Palestinians target civilians deliberately. Israel targets legitimate tagets...those who organize, order, and carry out terrorist attacks.
Now...what's so hard to understand?
whats so hard to understand is that
Israelis know that innocent palestinian civilians will die if they launch rockets into crowded areas where terrorists may happen to be.
but they still dont care
so in essence, they too are willfully targetting civilians
and its a cycle too fresca
palestinian kills israeli, israeli kills palestinian, palestinian kills israeli, israeli kills palestinian
israel is the bully
palestinians are the geeks
dont be surprised if the geeks flare up one day
...DELIBERATELY target civilians.
Can you not see what's wrong with that?
If Palestinians give up their arms, there will be peace.
If Israel gives up her arms, there will be no Israel.
when israel ethnically cleanses
creates settlements
imposes curfews
confiscates land
imposes policies that put palestinian farmers out of business
impose collective punishment.
shut down schools
so that israel can exist and so that palestinians can be its source of cheap labor
is that not deliberately targetting civilians?
the palestinians were kicked out of their homes
tell me honestly. what do you expect? do you seriously expect them to lay down their arms? do you expect them to teach tolerance and love for israel? do you expect them to be happy?
I expect them, living in their ghetto slums, uneducated, impoverished and bitter to spread hatred for israel.
As for the its TIME TO MOVE ON argument
i personally agree with that
but the same cannot be said for the palestinians
if i stole your possessions. you would be angry at me. and i doubt you would let it go and say "its time to move on." rather you would do what you could to regain your possessions.
the palestinians had everything, now they have nothing and now they are expected to be the bitches in this conflict.
the whole world turned its back on the palestinians. i think its time to give them a break.
its the humiliation of occupation to blame.
israel says no peace til terror stops.
tell me daveman. how can the palestinians stop 100% of terror attacks on israel?
how?
first Bush said it was Arafats fault. he wasnt doing enough. so now theres a new palestinian leader - abbas. abbas spoke to hamas. hamas said no end to attacks until occupation ends.
so what do you think is the solution?
no question that hamas is a bunch of terrorist assholes - but:
1-it's sharon who always restarts the cycle like when he killed 2 hamas small fish after aqaba in sabotage of the peace process;
2-it was jew-butcher antisemite sharon who with the likud created hamas to sabotage both plo and peace;
as further shown by sharon never ever targeting hamas head yassin for his targeted assassinations;
3-not to mention hamas' military wings based in london and us - whereby we come full circle.
