    But do you trust that a man who organises peaceful protest is imprisoned? And that these peaceful protests are often fired upon by soldiers?

    I don't, if he would be peaceful and of any influence he would be shot by his own. Pallywood.

    People are abducted and killed each day you fool, whatever you want it to be, it isn't that. Forgot about the PLO members being executed, often in the hospitals they were in. Do you even know people from there it's hell, and it aren't the Israeli's making it so.

    Throwing stones... that it? The French have been up to their usual antics with petrol bombs and the like, yet they've not been shot at with live rounds.

    If riot police can not deal with stones, there's something wrong.

    You can tell Israel is a democracy. They don't manage to pursue ANY strategy to its necessary end-state. They continue the usual mish-mash of policies and tactics which, unsurprisingly, beget more of the same.

    On the one hand Israelis are no angels, on the other hand people often claim it was a peaceful protest when they were actually throwing stones. I wasn't there so I don't know, it's so far away that I don't mind all that much anymore if they keep killing eachother. I just wish all the other countries on both sides would stop their support as well, until the two sides start working on an actual non-violent solution.
