The 4 times as many includes the terrorist that Israel kills. And the 1 times includes Israeli terrorists and settlers. Tom

The info was provided by the IDF.......the Israeli Defense Force.........the Israeli military. I wouldn't take anything they say as certain and unbiased truth but I would believe them above the Palestinian sources you like to quote. Also as Z said It was backed up by German sources. Yes, I saw that. IMO, to kill 4 times as many Palestinians as Israelis, the Israelis are either terrible, terrible shots inspite of their sophisticated weaponry, or they are targeting Palestinians helter skelter. 1 - The 4 times as many includes the terrorist that Israel kills. The better shots they are the more terrorists die. 2 - Considering the relative disparity of power, combined with the use of civilians as human shields by the terrorists the Israelis have to be at least decent shots to keep the Palestinian civilian death toll from being even higher. 3 - Look at the disparity in Iraqi deaths to American deaths in the current war, or in the last one. Does that mean that the Americans are lousy shots, or that they are targeting Iraqis helter skelter? I understand your position........I don't think there is much sense discussing it further. ted
