Kill all of Hamas even if it means killing an unlimited number of non-combatant Palestinians is probably a lingering result of hatred for Muslim Arabs after the 9-11 takedown of the World Trade Center. The desire for revenges leads to a Hatfieldโ€“McCoy feud that can go on for far too long.

Some have seen these words from me before, but I'll write them again. I had not been in Vietnam long when I saw the bodies of dead Viet Cong sappers found dead in the wire after the previous night's action. Their body's broken from gunfire, bones snapped and protruding from their skin, intestines in plain view. They were young, mostly about 13 years old. My first thought was that their mothers were waiting for them. My next thought was, so is mine. I was 18. They were child soldiers who had come to kill me. They were the enemy. The children who appeared on the road wherever we stopped after a truck hit a mine or we waited to cross a pontoon bridge were not the enemy. If a VC popped up in their midst, I would have chosen my M-16 in preference to a frag.

America was aghast when it learned of the My Lai massacre. Most of America anyway. Sadly, Isriel, America's darling, seems to have fewer detractors as they frag the children at the bridge.
