Palestinians Have a Right to Defend Themselves!

281. And therein lies the rub.

This campaign has killed 2,000 Palestinians. One campaign doesn't reflect the entirety of the ethnic cleansing and killings of Palestinians. In 1948, there were almost 5 million Palestinians in Israel. Today, there are 1.5 million. Many have been forced to leave their homes due to loss from Israeli settlements and shellings, most of them have spent their entire lives in refugee camps. Nazis were the most organized killers in history and have never been outdone in the scientific clinical destruction they visited on ethnic groups they hated in the hands-on extermination they perpetuated. Don't think that just because death is being dealt with modern weapons of destruction that it makes it any less humane, especially for those wounded, which in just this one campaign are in the several thousands and medical care almost non-existent. Your attempt to lessen the suffering of the Palestinians is farcical. Israeli Jews, with the exception of the very ultra Orthodox, live very prosperous safe lives with higher life expectancies than Americans. The same can't be said for Palestinians who live in desperate poverty and all keep a 'bug out bag' in case they have to flee in the night.
