The world was not horrified by the depravity of the “Palestinians”. The world simply called for restraint by both parties.

You are calling for a civilised standard of behaviour by the “Palestinians”. But they are Arabs and mohammedans. I thought Robert Fisk was extremely brave when he described Saddam Hussein as brutal. Some years later, I came to realise that in Arabic/mohammedan societies a man who is cruel and merciless is admired, because such a man can inspire fear.

And of course Israelis and Jews are blamed for the acts the perpetual victims perpetrate because defending one’s self against a person who is superior by virtue of his beliefs, entitles that person to complain and seek revenge. And the world finds it convenient to blame Jews, pretending they we are as bad as they were and their clients are, the better to ease their consciences. Besides it is safer and less trouble than acting against barbarians whom they have let into their societies.
