Israeli and foreign human rights groups have documented a long history of snipers firing on unarmed Palestinians, including children, in Gaza and the West Bank.

Palestinians in Gaza also report a terrifying new development in the latest Gaza war – armed drones able to hover over streets and pick off individuals. Called quadcopters, some of these drones are used as remote-control snipers that Palestinians say have been used to shoot civilians.

    How exactly does any of that semantic nitpicking change the fact that as long as the people remain, the cultural clash that led to all this, will too?

    Unless you are suggesting that to stop a genocide, we need another one?

      You’ve spent this entire discussion lamenting about how depraved the leadership of these groups are, how they’re the ones driving the conflict. Now you’re going to swap to saying that it’s cultural? Make up your mind.

        Now you’re grasping straws.

        Unless you are suggesting that cultural consciousness and what kind of people get into leadership positions are entirely unrelated, which they aren’t, you’ve got nothing.
