You are definitely representing a side of the story. I am not defending Hamas. I am, however, pointing out how Israel get special treatment from the U.S. media, which in turn shapes public opinion. I have not seen much about innocent Palestinians who have been killed by Israeli bombs, but there is a plentitude of articles detailing Israelis killed by Hamas. There is far too much to discuss in this kind of forum. I would like to see the U.S. demand that Israel take concrete steps to ensure peace in the region as a condition of receiving further aid. Blowing up Palestinian kids is not going to win my favor.
