Sorry - wrong: EDIT SYLLABICATION: ed�it PRONUNCIATION: ?d??t TRANSITIVE VERB: Inflected forms: ed�it�ed , ed�it�ing , ed�its 1 a. To prepare (written material) for publication or presentation, as by correcting, revising, or adapting. b. To prepare an edition of for publication: edit a collection of short stories. c. To modify or adapt so as to make suitable or acceptable: edited her remarks for presentation to a younger audience. 2. To supervise the publication of (a newspaper or magazine, for example). 3. To assemble the components of (a film or soundtrack, for example), as by cutting and splicing. 4. To eliminate; delete: edited the best scene out. 1c would be the appropriate use here. 4 also covers it. > > Of course "the editing" does not change the facts that a 11 year old > Palestinian girl was executed by the Israeli army - while she was > watching the funeral procession of a teenage Palestinian boy shot by > the Israeli Army the day before.

Actually it seemed from that article unclear who did the shooting, but lets say it was the IDF. They should be condemned for it. Brought to task. If they did the shooting. Again, the only source I have is the article you posted, and it was not clear on who did the shooting. > > I quoted that part of the article that was the most important - that the > bloody oppression of the Palestinians continues notwithstanding the > cost in lives for both the Israelis and the Palestinians. > I understand that a dead Jew is less important to you than a dead Arab. That was my point, really. That the killing of a Rabbi and attacking of his family on the way to a wedding is less noteworthy, less horrific, to you. They are equally horrific to me. > Your attempt to somehow show 'moral equivilency between the > illegal occupier and the occupied who resist violent occupation is > disingenious and implies support for illegal occupation through the > use of state terrorism.

I abhor the violence on both sides. As to the illegality of the state of Israel - it was given them by the landlords at the time, and thus legal. Moral? I certainly did not claim the high moral ground for either side, as neither has it. > <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org</A> > DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER > ========== > CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
