35. How many dead Palestinians will be enough for you?

Mar 2014

Three Palestinians were killed in the most recent airstrike. That's 3X the number of Israelis killed annually these deadly rocket attacks since 2001.

Anyone whose ideological dogma defends Israel in defiance of reality is ill-equipped to take anything seriously.
