Small potatoes even compared to the number of Jews, which is why the same few incidents get dragged out again and again. Furthermore, you don't have the Israeli government or world Jewry defending those incidents and calling for more of them.

I would generally agree with that statement. The King David Hotel comes out frequently solely because it's a hotel and it involved Begin. The Israeli aren't shy about using collective punishment which is an act of terrorism. Most times it's non-lethal. That's significantly better than lethal terrorism. Last I saw with the bus incident, no mention of the right to self-defense was made, but rather the Arabs that were being shot at that moment were accused of overreacting. There was some discussion of them being charged with murder; I don't know what happened in the end.

All in all, Jews are better than either Christians or Muslims, but no one completely escapes having a segment of murderers in it's midst. In modern times, Christians have more blood on their hands than any one else. They are more methodical in their ethnic cleansing; professionals. Muslims are amatuers but more enthusiastic.
