Yes, I get frustrated watching the talking heads trying to label this or that group "terrorists". I'm sure that a person watching a suicide bomber approaching from the left and a bunker buster coming from the right is equally terrified.

<I think the victims of suicide bombers and tactical bombers find themselves equally dead.>

You see no difference between tactical strikes against terorists wearing no uniforms and homicide bombers targeting only civilians ?

You have no problem when an Arab family is blown to bits by a land mine set by terrorists ?

<I'm sure if Hezbollah or Hamas HAD F-16s with precision bombs, they'd use them, rendering them "honorable" by your twisted logic.>

When you are attacked by your enemy you respond with what you have. The advantage held by Israel over its enemies is what you want to see disolve so that all sides become equal.

In your world we all would be speaking German right now.
