It is the last paragraph that we should be focused on, because it is unbelievable. First off, let me point out that Hamas already considers Jews and Israelis around the world to be a legitimate target, they said as much in January of last year. And other jihadist groups have killed Israelis and Jews worldwide too, remember Mumbai? It was not Israel who made "the world" a battleground, yet she ignores all of this. But even that is not enough: Alysheba goes on to make a false equivalence between Israelis going on vacation and a hardened Hamas terrorist on a mission to secure more instruments of death. No, alysheba, innocent people are not a legitimate target. But this man was no innocent. Not even the most pro-Palestinian of the Palestinians would go that far.
Then even more odious, she claims that if "innocents also get slaughtered" than it is Israel alone to blame, because they dared to defend themselves, regardless of who it was who did the killing. What an excellent logic trap: If Israel doesn't defend itself, it's people die. If Israel does defend itself, than everything that follows afterward is their fault. The Palestinians are not responsible for their own actions.
