Where? When? For every person killed, I'm sure his/her family doesn't consider it an exaggeration.

Does that include the Palestinian civillians killed by IDF forces, as well? I meant you exxagerate the extent of the "insane hatred," not the extent of the deaths related to the conflict, which are extremely extensive + everyone's fault, including the PA's.

Also, it isn't just the hardline Palestinians protesting the peace process in an alliterative fashion

How many Israelis were killed in those protests? Indeed, how many were armed?

One fewer, apparently. However, also apparently a couple of Palestinians were killed by Israeli forces during the time of the protests, whether it was self-defense or not I don't know, I don't remember if the article made it clear.

Maybe if the Palestinians stopped protesting and started working for a living, we'd all be better off. I never see them doing anything except running around shrieking and firing AK-47s.

Oh, and marching along with children dressed up as suicide bombers and carrying little guns.

Nice.

Could that possibly have something to do with the fact that neither you nor I live in Gaza or the West Bank?

I doubt if changing our location would affect the disease of hatred and violence that infects that culture.

I'm not the one claiming to be an expert on Palestinian culture and a being with Godlike power of judgement over their collective character and worthiness, though.
