2 - In any war innocent civilians get killed. Its very unfortunate, but the chance that Israeli soldiers intentionally killed that three year old girl is almost nil.
What do you use as evidence to support your position?
The Palestinian terrorists on the other hand do deliberatly murder children. And also send children to die either in suicide bombings or in attacks against superior Israeli forces. If they try to shoot Israeli soldiers and get killed then the Palestinans get headlines about Israel killing Palestinian children.
Sixteen is not a child in the ME. He may not be a full grown man but he is not considered a child like he would be here.....even here, he's not a child but an adolescent.

"beginning with the killing of a pregnant Israeli woman and her four children by terrorists near a Gaza settlement, according to witnesses and Israeli military sources.

After the attack, two gunmen were killed by Israeli soldiers on Kissufim Road in Gaza, which leads to the Gush Katif settlements, the military sources said.
The Popular Resistance -- an amalgamation of several armed Palestinian groups including Hamas, Islamic Jihad and the Fatah military wing -- took responsibility for the attack in a leaflet distributed in Gaza City.
A settler spokesman identified the victims as 34-year-old Tali Hatuel, who was eight months pregnant, and her four children: Hila, 11; Hadar, 9; Roni, 7; and Merav, 2."

I never said Israeli children do not die. What I did say is that 4 times as many Palestinian children are killed by Israelis than Israeli children are killed by Palestinian.
If nothing else, the statistics suggest your position is a bit unbalanced.
