Israel uses excessive force
Human Rights Watch Report
15 January 2003


Human rights developments

The violence that erupted beginning in September 2000 intensified in 2002. Civilians increasingly paid the price for repeated, egregious violations of international humanitarian law by the Israel Defense Forces (IDP) and Palestinian armed groups. At least 1,949 Palestinians and 637 Israelis were killed between September 2000 and late October 2002, the majority civilians, including 292 Palestinian and seventy-nine Israeli children. New patterns of abuse arose, and old ones intensified. Pernicious practices that had been diminishing were revived. ......

292 Palestinian children to 79 Israel children! Not bad for a group [Israel] that tries hard to limit civilian casualties.....more than three times.
