The problem is that the Palestinian claim is that Israel are targetting random targets in vengence attacks, and then claiming they were aiming for military leaders. The violence on both sides is equally wrong, and equally aimed at civillians. That's what happens in a nasty war of occupation. Trying to decide which side is "more to blame" or "more justified" perpetuates the killings. What is needed is a two state solution, and carrot and stick diplomacy, probably overseen and enforced by the US. It has almost worked in Ireland, it could work in the Middle East.
