Militants are not representatives of a sovereign government, not members a military code of conduct, nor members of culpable to international oversight.
What code of conduct? Where is this code of conduct when they are killing CIVILIAN children and women? That's how they conduct themselves.
Culpable to international oversight? You're kidding, right? How many times has the UN condemned the actions of Israel, only to have Israel thumb their noses at them in defiance. They don't give a shit what the international community thinks or says. They are untouchable, thanks to the US' support. How many UN resolution have been brought up only to be struck down by the US. Even the ones that pass are ignored.

The Israeli government first and foremost targets militants, and in the process of these engagements end up with casualties. These casualties ratios can at times be excessive and are the source of condemnation abroad and rightly so, and the Israeli's can and have responded to these criticisms.
At times be excessive? It seems to me that the highly touted IDF can't seem to track down and kill a single
terrorist without killing a dozen bystanders. They do have the most revered intelligence agency in the world you know. It's not like they can't take a person out without blowing up a civilian building.
Responded to these criticisms how, exactly? Ignoring = Responding?

The Palestinian terrorists on the other hand are not culpable for their actions. They INTENTIONALLY kill civilians by means of showing up anywhere, at any time in CIVILIAN centers and hiding amongst CIVILIAN the Palestinian populace and are more than willing to kill any number of their own to kill an Israeli.
The only difference between how Palestinian
terorists and how the Israeli Military kill people, is that the Israelis have the most advanced machines of destruction at their disposal. They too (INTENTINALLY imo) kill CIVILIANS by the similiar means of showing up anywhere, at any time in CIVILIAN centers... except they don't hide amongst the populace, no.. They hide behind a 10 ton mobile wall of steel. Willing to kill any number of Palestinians to kill a
target. All very unexpected, much like the bombers.

Sitting on the sick as fuck position that there's no difference is just the sort of ignorance that condemns this region to an eternity of conflict.
Or it's what will open people's eyes to the injustices of what's really happening in the area.
Like it or not, what you see on TV is notthe reality on the ground.
I'm just wondering why my hard earned money is being thrown at Israel for free.
Hmmm?
