Yea 1 Israeli death is equal to 1000 Palestinian children killed.

That's easily the ratio.

Two Palestinians indicted in Fogel murders | JTA - Jewish & Israel News

Somebody should catch Obama coming off the golf course, and ask him what he thinks about this.
The Israeli officer on camera shooting a handcuffed Gaza protester point blank?

Never served a day in jail.

Israeli's love playing the victim card...they use it to rationalize their abuse and brutality.

You might have some credibility if you could point to one post of yours condemning Israeli violence?

Palestinians are their own worst enemies. The nations complain to Israel that they are mistreating Palestinians and all Israel has to do in response is point to a story like this and say, "These people are insane! The more freedom you give them the more murders they will commit!" And because Palestinians always managed to do things like this, Israel will always have a point whenever it comes up.

If Palestinians could stop and think, they'd realize that Israel can milk that line forever and as long as a few Palestinians prove Israel right, Israel can delay granting greater freedoms indefinitely and justify killings as self defense, etc. If Palestinians were really, really smart (which they obviously are not) then they'd copy the form of protest that has proven to be the most successful under such circumstances: Nonviolent protest. But no, they gotta throw their rocks at the guys with guns.

So you aren't condemning these murders?

I thought all human life is sacred..... guess only certain ones are.

Easy. Pack the settlements up and migrate to Europe and America where people love the Israelis nowadays. Nothing to worry about, Hitler isn't coming back.

It achieves all purposes - Palestinians get their stolen property back and Israelis live in peace with their new neighbours.

Cool.

Now try coming up with a solution that's actually viable and not straight out of fantasy land.

I don't know man, the entire Israel thing is based on fantasy, like God's chosen people blah blah blah who went to a fantasy promised land..... but you're right, it's high time to take fantasy out of the equation and look at the issue in terms of civil property laws and land stealing. But you know as well as I do that fantasy is here to stay, right?

So when are you going to go back to Europe from the US and give land back to the Indians? You should listen to your own advice.
