re: What are the Israelis thinking?

Israeli troops fire on women in mosque siege


They must think a Palestinian life isn't worth very much. The cost of a bullet.

Its wrong to intentionally kill innocent unarmed non-combatants.

These women apparently chose to expose themselves to the risk to act as human shields for terrorists. Once they did that they were no longer innocent non-combatants.

Israel showed a lot more restraint than most of its neighbors would have. They would have gunned down the whole lot. If the situation where reversed the terrorist the women were protecting would not only have been willing to gun down all the women to get to Israeli soldiers in their midst, they would have been happy to gun down unarmed Israeli women even if there where no soldiers around.
