    What a senseless waste of life. And I bet all of these completely avoidable and totally unnecessary tragedies make excellent recruitment propaganda for the likes of Hamas.

      “I’m want to keep murdering these people, why are they fighting back?”

      Hamas is less poplar in Gaza than in the West Bank, so the opposite seems to be the case.

      There was a Flash video game following 9/11 that explained it perfectly.

      It had a stereotypical Middle Eastern marketplace. Random civilians wandering around, and one terrorist in a bomb vest. Goal? Kill the terrorist.

      Click them with the mouse, they explode, and when the blast damage touches other civilians it creates more terrorists.
