When you’re allowed to fire dozens of rockets at schoolhouses and hospitals, eventually you start killing children:

Arab terrorists launched rockets at Sderot Tuesday night, seriously wounding two Jewish 9th-graders. Defense Minister Peretz says it’s time for Prime Minister Olmert to start firing back. One of the boys, 14-year-old Adir Basad, is in very critical condition, and the second boy, Matan Cohen, suffered moderate wounds. They are being treated at Barzilai Hospital in Ashkelon. Three others were treated for shock, and a house and nearby cars sustained heavy damage.

But hey, maybe if everyone is really nice to the Palestinians they’ll stop trying to kill Jews. It’s worth a chance, right? It’s not like they’ve done anything to make us think that won’t work. Oh, except two days ago the Quartet announced that they were starting to give the Palestinians aid again, right in the middle of the sixty-something post-ceasefire Palestinian rocket barrage.

So this is example number a billion that says that maybe the Palestinians just really hate Jews, and that’s why they’re trying to kill them. And this time, two 14 year olds may have to die because the international community decided to give the Palestinians yet another chance.
