"There are two sides and both have legitimate claims. As before these are simply your words of spin onto my statement. I don't really care but I am bound to correct your dishonest spin as a personal obligation. First, it wasn't 'an extremist,' it was the leader of the extremist forces who launch terrorist attacks on innocents. This particular leaders comments are considered 'fatwa' by his followers. If you don't know what fatwa is, you should look it up. Unless powerful recognized scholars, immediately discount this statement it becomes essentially marching orders. It is a condemnable act and I have no hesitation in saying so. You do, which says a lot about you. "Do you think the actually killing of hundreds of children is acceptable? Which do you find worse, the actual killing or the suggestion to kill?" The death of innocent children happens every day under all kinds of unfortunate circumstance, some avoidable some not. I accept what is but don't always feel good about it. Much of the death of children whether from accidents, starvation, treatable disease, collateral damage, etc is avoidable and it is regrettable that we don't do more to protect them and keep them from harms way. The suggestion that innocent children are legitimate targets is pure evil. I said the sympathy for the Gazan people would be lessened as it may be associated with this statement and I am correct, which has nothing to do with which side I am going to be a cheer leader for ... which happens to be neither.
