I'm always amused that "throwing rocks" is innocent, when it's a means of execution. And those excusing it wouldn't want to be be pelted with pebbles, much less rocks.

They weren't hurled at IDF, but at "civilians". People like you and me or your sister (if you have one) or mine.

Not sure it's worth killing them over, but it's also not good to defend them. I have enough "that's wrong" in me to condemn both.
