The Israelis are quite imaginative, with their, Operation names. At least they can boast about that.
The death of palestinians have no value in their eyes. Yet, who condemn those crimes? No need to, we will be call anti-semite or terrorists, for doing it.
What israel does, is the right thing, I mean, they arent call the God's chosen people for nothing ...
