You have got to be kidding me.

Nonetheless, the pullout has displayed deep fissures, among parties and generations and within Zionism itself. And it has made some Israelis wonder why at least some of the same consideration and sensitivity cannot be shown by the army, at the many checkpoints that form a notional border, toward Palestinians.

Who are these Israelis? How the hell does the New York Times even allow someone to compare a process to weed out terrorists who are on their way to kill dozens of innocent Jews versus the ethnic cleansing (isn't that what they call it) of Jews by their own brothers and sisters? And you know when the Times uses the term "some Israelis", it's jounrnalist-speak for "a growing/significant number". Bullcrap.



Maybe all this kid needed was a Jewish shoulder to cry on. In any case if the Israeli army really put no value on Palestinian life, this kid would have been hamburger.

I wonder how many Palestinian/Arab deaths have been prevented by Israelis who've caught suicide bombers before they could take action.
