A terrorist disease A senior member of Hamas, another terrorist organization, and a spokesman for the Hamas-led government, Ghazi Hamad, openly wondered if violence is a Palestinian "disease" -- and then provided the answer.

Hamad wrote that 175 Palestinians had been killed by “Palestinian gunfire” since the beginning of the year.

Despite that, however, a search of news stories result in a focus on "Israeli clashes kill 7 in Gaza" as though the deaths were civilian. They were Hamas terrorists manning a rocket launching site responsible for sending rockets into Israel. To the always-biased Associated Press, the headline was "Israel ramps up Gaza offensive; 4 dead" No mention of the reason, that even the New York Times acknowledged as "Israel Steps Up Attacks to Halt Palestinian Rockets".
