In the past two years, the terror against Israelis has been of a kind and severity unknown in Israel. Palestinian terrorists have carried out over 6,600 terror attacks since September 2000, killing more than 620 Israeli children, women and men (80% of whom have been non-combatants and wounding over 4,500. The equivalent number in UK terms would be over 6,200 dead and 45,000 injured. There has been a clear effort by Palestinian terrorists to target unarmed, innocent civilians on the streets, on buses, in homes, at pizzerias and cafÃÃâ€*’©s, at a university campus and a Passover Seder. The impact of the terror on Israeli lives is unimaginable.

you'll notice ive been more generous than you about the israeli figures, but that still leaves
over 3 times as many
innocent palastinian deaths at the hands of the IDF, with their terror tactics, bulldozing residential properties, and forcefull suppression....
*edit*
civilian deaths are bad, whatever side they are on. israelies die by terrorist action. 3 times as many palastinians die due to state sponsored action......you tell me which one is worse?
*edit 2*
or to put it another way.
800 odd Israeli civilians die from suicide bombings - something they cant guard or fight againsed. thats 'terrorism'
2000 palastinians civilians die from tanks, helicopter gunships and fighter jets - something they cant guard or fight againsed. but thats called (in
your words gogo) 'whatever measures are needed'
care to explain what the difference is?
