No need to shout. I have every intention of answering your question. Yes, Israelis have more military might than the Palestinians. As such, the ratio of killings are higher on the Palestinian side.

However, the atrocity level is equal on both sides. When you have a situation where atrocities are being committed on a daily basis, such as a pizza parlor being bombed killing innocent civilians or Israeli solders leveling a refugee camp killing innocent civilians, it begets waves of violence that turn men into beasts with allegiance to one type of thinking: blood-lust.

Is the answer to then turn your entire population into a seething den of hate mongerers with endless propaganda such as the Elders of Zion and news intended to incite hatred? Or is the answer to do something more constructive that has a chance to extricate your people from the mess?

God knows the Israelis and the Americans have tried numerous times to set a plan on the table to end the war. However, where are the concerned Arab leaders with their plan? Why haven't they tried to restrain Palestinians long enough to negotiate with Israel? Why have they not lead the way with peace deals with Israel and full normalization of relations?

You need two sides to negotiate to arrive at a peace deal. When one side is unwilling to do what it takes to come to the table, then you get what you see today.
