I honestly don't think that the Israelis can be this stupid, so there has to be a certain amount of evil involved with stuff like this as well.

Now, assuming that the details are correct, how many terrorists do you think the Israelis just created in order to kill one gunman? You'd have to be N8 level stupid to think this is a productive way to deal with the situation.

6 less terrorists than before.

Yeah, that's Israeli math, apparently. Works well if you make the assumption that the dead kids don't have any relatives or friends of the family...

Sometimes when I don't post on RM for a while and then I come back, and there's always a story exactly like this... I wonder why it's even worth talking about. Nothing ever changes. There are just too many clashing idealist ****tards in the world and no amount of time you devote to cooling tensions will pay off. If it's not Israel/Palestine it's Shiite/Sunni or some other BS. The only day we will see peace is the day people renounce their cultures and religions and that's never going to happen, so **** it. I dont care anymore.

I only care because Israel gets a large chunk of the foreign aid we send out...

Israeli math presupposes an infinite supply of terrorists.
