22 to 5000.

BEFORE THE RECENT EVENTS
Israeli deaths through Palestinian violence over the last 7 years:
22 [ref 1] (reference 1 is the most informative article I have read on the
subject and takes great care to fairly weigh the claims of either side.)

Palestinian deaths through Israeli violence over the same period:
5000+ [ref 2]

DURING THE RECENT EVENTS
Israeli deaths due to palestinian violence:
9 [ref 3] (another 4 also died of 'friendly' fire)

Palestinian deaths due to Israeli violence:
1000+ (plus 5000+ maimed and seriously injured) [reference 4]

Ethnic cleansing?

It was such a good little article (and it isn't a repost anymore than any academica writing drawing on sources is a repost!)... until teh last referene.

The Palestine Thinktank (a.k.a. the anti-Semtic Septic Tank) is run by two racists with proven links to extreme right-wing/neo-Nazi sites like KKK's David Duke, Zuendel Site, and Canada's Radical Free Press- all uncontroversial in their virulent Jew-hating and holocaust denying stance.

I don't know anything about the author, and it may be that he is a sound source but misguided in where he lets his material be published.

But cybersewers like that site are not suitable for an anti-racist site like this!

No Racism in the PSM!

"Palestine Think Tank" = Gilad Atzmon

Yeah, *that* Gilad Atzmon.

Nevertheless, I expect the post will probably stay up; FTP's stooopid blindness to antisemitism is getting worse by the week.
