The running totals for children killed in Palestine and Israel are both depressing and illuminating. 52 Palestinian children have been killed, nearly all of them by direct Israeli Defence Force action. A single Israeli child was killed, not by the Palestinians, but by the IDF. This child was an eleven-year-old called Mahmoud Ibrahim Mahmoud al-Krenawi, "a Bedouin with Israeli citizenship living in the first recognized Bedouin city in Israel, killed by IDF gunfire to his head and pelvis while picking figs at the home of his half brother during an incursion in Saida, near Tulkarem".
Now, remind me again, which one is the civilised, peace-loving, humanitarian state, and which one is the nasty, evil, terrorist, maniacal state?
