You can spin it any way you want.

I'll confess to having inadequate knowledge of the history of this region. But for the life of me, as one outside looking in, I cannot comprehend how Israel is at fault in this. I am not aware of Israel targeting civilians in the recent past (although civilians have no doubt died in the crossfire). From my perspective they are forced to defend themselves against attacks on their civilians.

War is one thing; attacks against civilians simply cannot ever be justifiable in this day. Civilians get killed in wars, but should not be targeted. As I see it, Arafat is targeting civilians while Sharon is attempting to defend against those attacks.

How is my understanding wrong?
