innocent civilians? - well you are definetely falling for the
palenstinian propaganda. Also, the isrealis AFAIK always attack what/who
they believe to be the cause of the terrorist attacks. They also
(always?) notify the palestinians of where they will attack - usually,
the attacked buildings are subsequently vacated. How much more
consideration couls *anybody* reasonably expect? - come on!

Please! for every time he halfheartedly did that, he puplicly justified
terrorist actions ("as long as there is israely occupation, the people
will..."). Who know how much atagonizing he does behind closed doors
with his people (although I have a pretty good idea).

They are trying to raise the pressure on him, because pointing out the
obvious (stop encouraging/tolerating terrorism) has had no effect.
