12 Year Old Boy Killed In Palestinian On Palestinian Violence, World Fails To Care

We await with bated breath the brave stand of British journalists against this tragedy:

A 12-year-old Palestinian boy was killed Monday night in the northern Gaza Strip when he was caught in the crossfire between two feuding families near his home. In central Gaza Monday, armed militants shot a pharmacists and his son, wounding them. The men also stole the pharmacist’s car. In Gaza City, two Palestinians were hurt during fighting that broke out following a soccer match at a local soccer stadium. Three Palestinians were hurt in an explosion Monday at a Hamas militant’s home, near the Gaza beach. The explosion was apparently triggered by the handling of explosives inside the home.

As of this morning, the Elder of Zion’s counter lists 183 Palestinian deaths caused by Palestinian violence in 2007. The UN’s own figures listed 133 post-January Palestinian deaths attributable to Palestinian violence, but they don’t count things like honor killings or “work accidents” of bomb makers and tunnel diggers. Deaths that Israel is responsible for hover between 30 and 40.

So obviously, one-third of UN resolutions should be getting directed at Israeli human rights atrocities. Obviously.
