Why has the Israeli gov't killed 32 Palestinian civilians in the West Bank since June this year?

If 1462 Israeli civilians had been killed in 50 days there would be international outrage. Why not for the Palestinians?

Dear Avw,

The point I had been earlier making was that the resistance by Gazans, although resulting in the slaughtering of their citizens by the war criminals of the Likud Party, has meant that after seeing off the occupiers they have been able to hold on their land. The compliance by those in power in the West Bank have seen the settler cancer grow and land appropriated at frightening rates. To then hear that there was a new record land grab by the Israelis in the West Bank surely validated my point in spades. Why on earth would you consider it doesn't. That my friend would be illogical.

The only counter evidence you provided was the announcement of housing approval in an Arab neighbourhood of East Jerusalem which is OCCUPIED TERRITORY! And this from you was ridiculous;

“that the lack of terrorism from the West Bank encourages additional land to be given to the Palestinians there”

It is not Israeli land to 'give' to anyone, it is Palestinian territory. At best the Israelis have deigned to allow the Palestinians to keep a parcel of their own land, how bloody kind of them.

There had to be some announcement to deflect some of the condemnation from the international community from the initial land grab but in the words of the Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat “The planning of neighborhoods in East Jerusalem by the Jerusalem municipality is a clear expression of Israel’s sovereignty over every part of the city and the unified strength of Jerusalem.” It is a clear expression of something called a military occupation.

This next piece from you does you little credit;

“Buried as an afterthought at the bottom of your paragraph you seem to finally admit that Hamas “…took the opportunity to violently seize control against the wishes of the majority of the Palestinian people”.

Please refrain from misrepresenting my points as it takes time and effort to correct the record and is not conducive to the discussion.

In the 'Battle of Gaza' in 2007 it was the Palestinian 'Vichy' government (Fatah) who illegitimately went against the democratic will of the Palestinian people and took power, after which they attempted to take control of the only means the Gazans had of defending themselves;

“In January 7, 2007, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas ordered the Hamas-led Interior Ministry's paramilitary police force, the most powerful armed unit outside his control in factional fighting, to be incorporated into the security apparatus loyal to him.”
Wikipedia

Why on earth would they have complied? What would have kept at bay renewed Israeli settler activity in Gaza or IDF incursions done at will?

You write;

“You appear to be oblivious to the concept of cause and effect in relation to the Gaza war, yet you should know perfectly well that all strikes by Israel are in response to the continuous barrage of rockets into its territory, a criminal act that has been going on for many years. Can you name any other country on this planet that would have put up with a fanatic enemy sworn to its destruction lobbing daily rockets onto its territory, without retaliating to such attacks?”

Which can just as easily be written as;

'You appear to be oblivious to the concept of cause and effect in relation to the Gaza war, yet you should know perfectly well that all strikes by Hamas are in response to the continuous missile strikes and incursions into its territory and a brutal blockade which is a a criminal act that has been going on for many years. Can you name any other peoples on this planet that would have put up with a fanatic enemy acting in every way to deny their statehood and self determination, an enemy hell bent on continuous assassinations, kidnappings, torture, house demolitions and air strikes without retaliating to such attacks?'
