You are correct, I was referring to the point that many Palestinians expressed joy at the deaths of innocent people who chose the pain of the sidewalk over the pain of the inferno within the WTC.

I would not dispute their right to express their abhorrent views. But I find detestable a culture that rejoices and promotes the death of non-combatants.

They also had the right to develop the terrorism networks within Jenin and other areas. But what I find incredulous is the criticism of the IDF who have the right to seek out and destroy these networks to defend their citizens. By any measure they have acted with great restraint IMO.

We certainly did not take the risky route often to minimize civilian casualties when chasing the Taliban & AL Qaeda through Afghanistan.
