You never see the words ' Israeli or Jew' in the same phrase as 'Terrorist'. Are there double standards here for Israeli's and Palestinian's?
You see the title 'terrorist' when a Palestinian suicide bomber does an attack and civilians are killed:
but whan the Israeli army bomb a house with a quarter ton bomb, kill a Militant, his wife, 7 sons and daughters aged 7 to 19;
when the Israeli army strike and kill an entire family of 7 except a small girl left crying next to the body of her father, on the Gaza beach;
when an Israeli missile rips into a family gathering while they sit in their back yard sipping tea and grilling corn, killing the mother, her 6 yr old daughter and 23 yr old son, you certainly don't hear the word 'Terrorists!!!'
All of the suffering + heartbreak is so sad for both sides.
My question is 'why', why is one classified a terrorist in the eyes of the worlds media, why is one propagated as a terrorist to the ears of the world, but not the other? Makes you wonder why
