| On behalf of Palestinians who condemn these kind of acts, I am deeply sorry for what happened this morning. It does NOT represent the aspirations, hopes, or plans for most of us who are trying to find ways to live in peace with each other. I do want to point out, however, that the picture you painted in regards to the target of this attacker is an ugly one. You are stressing the fact that his target is Jews. I happen to be walking in that same street this morning when the attack happened, and I`m Palestinian. He knew that civilians from all walks of life shop, live and get treatment in that region of the city. Yes, it`s predominantly Jewish, but I disagree with you stressing that it is an attack against a religious sector versus an ethnic group/nationality (ie. Israelis). His action is inexcusable, but the language you use to describe this event is only feeding fuel into the fire, and it is not even the "right" fire. You are being unhelpful and misinforming. |
