You're confusing cause and effect. The civilian casualties are a direct consequence of Palestinian terrorism. If the terror were to stop, so would the
civilian casualties. The reverse is not true.

And the Palestinians will say, "the Isreali deaths are the direct consequence of the illegal occupation." And so it goes on and on, ad infinitum. Every time an Israeli
gunship inflicts "collateral damage" on innocent bystanders, more suicide bombers are born. And so the process repeats itself endlessly.

The Palestinians can say whatever they like.  It's up to the intelligent person such as yourself to devine wisdom from this.  Do you think Israel would kill Palestinians for no reason at all?  I don't think you do.  There's your answer my friend.

The grievances on both sides are deep. The casualties and costs in both societies are enormous. Yet the fact remains: there are only two solutions to the problem,
Peace or Genocide. It's really that simple.

Yes, it truly is that simple.  The problem is that some folks still don't understand which side is demanding a genocide of the other.

When you have determined which side does the following, you will have answered your own quest for enlightenment.

1. Teaches their grade school children to think of the other side as animals, specificly monkeys and dogs.
2. Teaches their grade school children to plan to become terrorists against the other side.
3. Teaches their grade school children that the other side must be exterminated.
4. Preaches from holy sites that the other side must be destroyed on the orders of their spiritual diety.
5. Preaches from holy sites that salvation will be obtained instantly if they martyr themselves.
6. Preaches from holy sites that 72 virgins and their spiritual diety himself will greet them immediately upon martyrdom.
7. Publishes in their newspapers and periodicals that the other side must be exterminated.
8. Publishes in their newspapers and periodicals that the other side is made up of animals, specificly monkeys and dogs.
9. Publishes in their newspapers and periodicals graphics that depict the other side as monkeys and dogs, or constantly instill blood libel.

You see, one side does want peace and one side does want genocide.  Too many people don't realize this.

What's YOUR answer? It seems to me that when people live in the degraded conditions of the Palestinians, there's always going to be fertile ground for hotheads and violent types.
