And for those Palestians that reject the suicide bombings, I truly feel sympathy, and look forward to a future of peace for their own country.
I personally, cannot, in anyway, find it to be okay for the Palestians to use suicide bombings. It only justifies anything that Israel does.
The thought that it is okay for one group to do something, but not another, because of the devine deity for who they appear to be fighting is a logical fallacy. From a non-bias outside party, we all know that both sides are equally guilty. However, in someway because the Palestinians have chosen a particular religion, they are excused as simply making "human errors", while the Israelis are fighting for Satan because they are not attacking in the name of Islam. I do not undertand the rationalizing of what seems to be a clear double standard.
