They treat non-violent Palestinian protesters the same as militant ones. To the state of Israel, especially their right wing nuts, the only good Palestinian is a dead one. Israel is making the same mistake Roman Christians did after they took over the Roman Empire -- the persecuted who obtain the power of the state become the next generation of persecutors and most often are worse than those that once mistreated them.
