Re the list of Palestinians dead. I'm guessing that is what happens when you use civilians as human shields and place them around your ammunition stores, stores which you know will be fired upon.
I guess too that if a terrorist organisation like Hamas fired rockets at the UK, the response from the UK would also seem disproportionate.
I have lots of family in Israel. Family who are under fire from rockets, even when there is a temporary ceasefire. I have young cousins who are likely to be called up into war. This conflict has a human side on both sides of the fence.
Personally, I am very worried about the amount of anti-semitic material I am seeing on websites and across Facebook and other social media. I am Jewish, I should not be afraid to say to anyone I am Jewish or be in fear of reprisals.
