Reply #64: no, but don't let the hypocrisy stop

no, violating international law is not okay with me. But, apply the standard equally. Israel and its supporters only cite to international law when it is convenient for them. Israel has long been in violation of international law, and has more violations than Saddam Hussein.

Tell me, ... if Israel follows international law and is so careful to protect the lives of innocent civilians, .... why has Israel killed approximately 3,500 Palestinian civilians since the start of the first Intifada? During that time, Palestinians have killed approximately 750 Israeli civilians. (These numbers are from B'Tselem).

things like this just don't matter to you.

the killing is wrong on both sides. How come Israel keeps taking the Palestinian lands? How come Israel keeps moving settlers into the Palestinian areas? they've been doing that for 35 years or more, taking more and more land.

and, if the killing of civilians is so important to Israel, how come it has killed four times as many Palestinian civilians?
