/mosque logic/ Nor they do they represent other settlers. Stop discriminating against settlers. You can't generalize. / mosque logic./
Not even the rage of a thousand suns would stop this from being a repost.
Israelis started it by occupying the place.
I agree that the action was wrong and useless. It doesn't do anything against the ultranationalist, because they are extremists and won't retreat. They just give more power to them by proving that war is the only solution against them. Which is not, because this is a war that cannot be won by neither sides.
I called this. none of these people will ever find peace until the other is wiped out. Let the strongest win. It's all that can be done.
Ok Ok, some 4 Israeli soldiers were killed in Gaza. Its a rotten and dastardly deed perhaps counterbalanced by the eight or so Palestinians in Gaza Israelis kill every day.
But wait, Israel left Gaza some years ago, Gaza is supposed to be an independent area, even though Israel has an economic embargo on Gaza.
So please explain to this forum, what the hell Israeli soldiers were doing in Gaza????????????? Gaza is supposed to be an Israeli soldier free zone, so rest assured, either this event did not happen because there are no Israeli soldiers in Gaza to kill, or Israel speaks with a forked tongue.
The escalation continued in 1882 when Ellison Hatfield, brother of "Devil Anse" Hatfield, was killed by three of Roseanna McCoy's young brothers: Tolbert, Pharmer, and Bud. Ellison was stabbed 26 times and finished off with a shot during an election day fight that took place in Kentucky. The McCoy brothers were initially arrested by Hatfield constables and were being taken to Pikeville for trial. Devil Anse Hatfield organized a large group of followers and cut off the constables with McCoy prisoners in tow before they reached Pikeville. The brothers were taken by force to West Virginia to await the fate of mortally wounded Ellison Hatfield. When Ellison finally died from his injuries the McCoy brothers were themselves murdered in turn as the vendetta escalated. They were tied to pawpaw bushes, where each was shot numerous times. Their bodies were described as "bullet-riddled".[citation needed]
The escalation reached its peak during the 1888 New Years Night Massacre. Several of the Hatfield gang surrounded the McCoy cabin and opened fire on the sleeping family. The cabin was set on fire in an effort to drive Randal McCoy into the open. He escaped by making a break but two of his children were murdered and his wife was beaten and left for dead. The remaining McCoy family moved to Pikeville to escape the West Virginia raiding parties.
Between 1880 and 1891, the feud claimed more than a dozen members of the two families, becoming headline news around the country, and compelling the governors of both Kentucky and West Virginia to call up their state militias to restore order[citation needed] The Governor of West Virginia once even threatened to have his militia invade Kentucky. Kentucky Governor S.B. Buckner in response sent his Adjutant General to Pike County to investigate the situation.

Have some crow with the salt.
1) No soldiers - civilians including a pregnant lady
The Palestinian Authority also condemned the attacks, which occurred just before its president, Mahmoud Abbas, met with Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. A Palestinian spokesman, Nabil Abu Rudeineh, said the attack by Hamas, the authority’s rival, underlined “the need to proceed quickly toward a just and lasting peace agreement,” which he said would “put an end to these acts.”
Even before the attack, settlements were looming as a potential deal-breaker in the peace process. Mr. Netanyahu has steadfastly refused to commit to extending a partial moratorium on construction in the West Bank, which expires Sept. 26, while Mr. Abbas has said it will be very hard to keep talking if construction resumes. Mr. Netanyahu has not struck any private deals with President Obama or anyone else on the moratorium, American and Israeli officials said...
A senior Israeli official said that the West Bank attack, the deadliest on Israeli citizens in more than two years, would inevitably heighten the emphasis on Israel’s security in the negotiations. But Palestinian officials noted that the attack took place in an area of the West Bank that is under full Israeli security control, and where the Palestinian security forces have no responsibility and are not allowed to operate...
Salam Fayyad, the prime minister of the Palestinian Authority, said in a statement, “We condemn this operation, which contradicts Palestinian interests and the efforts of the Palestinian leadership to garner international support for the national rights of our people.”
Sami Abu Zuhri, a Hamas spokesman in Gaza, congratulated the attackers, saying the attack was a normal reaction to what he called "the crime of occupation."
Here is the NYT version, turns out the Israelis killed were not garden variety Israelis, they were Israeli settlers from a West Bank settler party Israeli village well know for murdering Palestinians.
Still point taken, no one deserves to be murdered this way, but still, they had no business being in the West Bank in the first place. Maybe Israel thinks they are legitimate residents, but its still not Israel's say when Israel does not and can not own the West Bank in the first place.
But still, its was Hamas gunman who claimed the credit, trespassing on Fatah West Bank turf so no blame should attach to Abbas and the Palestinian authority.
