LOL. Why the parentheses?

If Israel drops a bomb on a Syrian building and a Christian dies, would it be incorrect to say the person was “killed”? Would it be wrong to say “Israel killed them”?

Let me guess…”It is wrong to say that because they didn’t do it INTENTIONALLY”

But you would say that a virus killed a person or a tornado killed a person. But to drop a bomb on someone isn’t “killing them”.

You are reduced to adding parentheses into a quote and arguing semantics to try to paint me as evil for criticizing your favorite country.

Would you care to amend your original direct accusation that “Israel will just have to ... kill more Christians” to something more accurate like,

“In its several defensive wars against jihadists, Israel unintentionally collateral kills civilians including Christians, often due to the jihadi’s use of civilians as human sheilds.”?

If so, then that would be a useful clarification from what seems like a direct accusation that Israel targets Christians because of their religion.
