Young American Jew Stands up For Palestine. You Won't Believe what Happens Next

I find the press coverage quite laughable. Palestians are the oppressors and Israelis the victims. 200 Palestinians killed including babies but the poor Israelis have to hide in shelters. Poor Israelis are victims of tanks, helicopters and F16 attacks. One Israeli is apparently suffering from depression suspected of being because of the rocket attacks. Another Israeli is suspected of having scratched himself on the debris of a rocket.

From three years ago, so hardly current. And "treated none-too gently" is probably a better description than "beaten up". And it was police, not IDF.

But don't let little things like "facts" get in the way of your argument.

I prefer not to dilute the meaning of words, and the word 'terrorist' has already suffered enough. So I personally wouldn't choose that word.
