One of my pet peeves are people who set up strawman arguments. I never claimed that all palestinians are terrorists. Noam Shalit said “‚ÄúI feel that the Atamna family and the other families who lost their loved ones are exactly like the Slotzker family in Sderot and my family in the Galilee.” He is equivocating accidental IDF fatalities (resulting from terrorists hiding in population centers), with terrorists deliberate firing at civilians.

I will give cut him some slack because of his grief, but no-one is above criticism.

I’m very impressed with Noam Shalit’s courage and insight. What a shame you have to remain so cynical. Do you really believe that *every* Palestinian is a terrorist? Then again, maybe Shalit’s just trying to get his kid back…

I think you mean “province” by the way.
