Cycle of Violence
Israel develops highly sophisticated non-lethal weapons so that they can avoid injuring Palestinian civilians in close quarters:
The Israeli military said Sunday it is changing riot control methods, replacing its sometimes lethal rubber-coated steel pellets with compressed sand bullets.
... and the Palestinians fire rockets into a crowd of 50,000 Israelis:
Hamas tonight fired a rocket in the direction of an anti-Gaza withdrawal rally that attracted tens of thousands of supporters who are planning to march momentarily toward Gaza's Jewish communities. About 50,000 Israelis congregated here in Sderot.
Those murderers ended up killing a 3 year old Palestinian boy when one of the rockets went astray. The Israelis do everything possible to avoid harming Palestinians, the Palestinians fire rockets into crowds to indiscriminately kill both Israelis and Palestinians, but somehow it's a cycle of violence that both sides are equally responsible for.
So says Omri, and he's right.
Meanwhile... the San Fran Chronicle says:
Seventeen-year-old Osama Abu Asi knows what Hamas stands for: swimming lessons, horseback riding, potato sack races and other summertime fun -- including religious education and paramilitary training.
What else does Hamas stand for?
"They also learn how to sing "intifada songs," including one urging them to "kill Zionists wherever they are, in the name of God."
Just in case you had any doubts.
