13. Neither side is being virtuous....
but I do think that the Palestinians (to an extent) are being more honest. They admit that their killing Israelis that the rest of the world (including us) considers to be civilians.

Israel, on the other hand, kills innocent person after innocent person and comes up with an explanation all of the time to either "justify" it or to just flat out get off of the hook. It's always an accident or they're always supposedly a terrorist if Israel gets asked questions. Of course, Isreal as of lately does a bad job of proving that certain people are terrorists. After so many attacks on International Solidarity Movement workers (and major hints that they were being done on purpose in some or all cases), the Israeli Foreign Ministry comes up with the unproven accusation that they supposedly have proof that they're supporting terrorists. So far, nobody is backing them up, and they haven't proved squat. It's been nothing more than a nasty attempt to justify murdering innocent activists. At least the Palestinians don't BS the world like that.

I can't stand a freaking BSer, as Israel is.

It's like after September 11'th, Hussein said that we got what we deserved. That pissed me off, but what pissed me off even more was Arafat's crocodile tears for what happened (Okay, so not all Palestinians are honest. I'm not saying that they are. They just seem to be more honest than the Israeli government lately).
