>Yousef, do you think the Palestinian children who are killed by stray Israeli fire can see the difference? Dead is dead.
That's such a silly argument... can you name a war in which no civilians at all were killed as collateral damage?


Z, silly argument......maybe to you but I don't think the people who are dead would agree. Yousef seems to think that dying when you are targeted is much worse than dying accidentally. I don't agree. In fact in the after life, I am sure people are not sitting around saying "Damn, I feel terrible....I was targeted to die" whereas someone else says, "I feel so good 'cause I died accidentally".

This notion that some deaths are more noble than others is one way people minimize the bad aspects of war.........personally, I think its bs. This war is sh*t period.
