WTF? Palestinians kill Israeli civilians, and vice versa. The difference lies in the fact that the Palestinians killing Israelies are private terrorists acting on their own will, but the Israelis killing Palestinians are mostly soldiers controlled by the Israeli government. While it is of course terrible that terrorists kill civilians, it is NEVER acceptable for a government to respond by launching military actions against innocent civilians. Yassir Arafat has numerous times urged the Palestinian terrorists to stop killing Israelies, yet the Israeli government still claims that he, personally, is to be held responsible for EVERY attack made on Israelies by ANY Palestinian. That is just ridiculous. /Jonas
