1. I guess he is unhappy more Israelis weren't killed. nt

2. Well if there were a bunch of crazy people (mostly all young men) going around

shooting up a neighborhood from which there was no escape and using, in their own words, "insane" amounts of firepower, I'd much prefer if somehow they got killed rather than women and children and old people.

3. theres a lesson to be learned here...

its not a good idea to shoot over 6,000 rockets at your neighbor trying to kill them almost every day for years and not expect some kind of reaction....

unfortunately it seems to be a tough lesson to understand

5. The vast majority of the Palestinian casualties were young men

Over 90 percent were male and most were combat-age.

6. And those shooting rockets at civilians from crowded neighborhoods?

what blame do they have? Don't want civilians hurt? Don't start wars. Very simple thing, don't you think? Or do you endorse the use of human shields?

4. Finklestein ?

There is absolutely nothing this guy could
say that would be considered even mildly important .

7. Ron Paul agrees with Finkelstein. Here's Paul on PRESS-TV...

Wow, what a "progressive" Ron Paul is.

8. Well...

... if Norman Finkelstein says it, it MUST be true.

After all, it's not like he's selling a book or anything.
