FALSE MORAL EQUIVALENCE HEADLINE OF THE WEEK:

"Two Israelis, Two Palestinians Killed in Suicide Bombings and Ambushes"
http://sg.news.yahoo.com/020730/1/31286.html

In this case, two does not equal two. The two dead Israelis were brothers who had gone on Tuesday to a Palestinian village to sell fuel. The two dead Palestinians were a suicide bomber (Jerusalem falafel stand), and a man who broke into a Jewish home and stabbed two Israelis, before being shot by security guards.

IDF - from the Hamas Web forum: How to kill Americans

From the Hamas web site forum:

1. Al- Awsad (user number 1):
Once a week, a group of American "dogs" come near us on the sea front. I have been following them for a long time and am interested in your suggestions for ways to get rid of them secretly.
...
8. UNITY_MANAGER (user number 6):
Put cyanide in the water (tank). They will die within 10 seconds. They won't even have time to scream in pain. Make sure that they DESERVE TO DIE, that is, that they are soldiers OR JEWS OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. (emphasis added)

Update from HonestReporting.com

A report covering a range of issues from the vigilant media watchdog.

israelinsider: Views: The enemy within

The Israeli press officer in Dubline condemned the Gaza attack. A sane Foreign Ministry would immediately remove the traitorous Dr. O'Carroll. But then, a sane Foreign Ministry wouldn't be headed by Peres.

As this piece points out, the "logic" of the left in Israel is seriously flawed.
