Jenin. They didn't detonate themselves, but I'm pretty certain that the Israli army gave a good "Crowd" of Palestinians a one way ticket to Paradise there.

another key difference is that where palestinian civilians are killed, the killing is accidental and collateral to the terrorists. Whereas when Israelis are killed it is always intentional and the intended targets are nearly always civilian.

How do I know this? Because Israel, if it so wanted, could drop a small nuke into Palestinian territory and end all terrorism instantly, but has not. During their most recent incursion into Ramallah during Operation Defensive Shield, they sent in ground troops to battle terrorists instead of bombing th place indiscriminately from the safety of the skies so as not to harm civilians.

Does this mean that Palestinian civilians's lives count less than Israelis? Certainly not. But lets put things into perspective by virtue of the intentions of the offenders before demonizing either side.

Want to cry out "massacre" by the Israelis? Look at their arsenal and marvel how few civilians have been killed to date despite the terrorists camping in their midsts and using civilians as shields.

It's pointless for me to even post a response. If it's one thing terrorists apologists know, it's put a spin on everything.
