(There is also the &#8216;God thing.&#8217; Israel has a Biblical relationship to God that includes ownership of the land they now possess. The Bible clearly says that the person who blesses Israel will be blessed and the person who curses Israel will be cursed. History bears that out.)<\/p>\n<p>Please remember when you hear the hysterical cries of <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Palestinian casualties of war\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Palestinian_casualties_of_war\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">Palestinian casualties<\/a> that those casualties are planned by the <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Palestinian government\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Palestinian_government\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">Palestinian government<\/a>. When Israel tells people to leave an area they are about to attack, the Palestinian government orders the civilians to stay there&#8211;the Palestinian government understands the optics of Palestinian civilian casualties in the propaganda war. Israel is not targeting civilians&#8211;the government of Gaza has targeted Israeli civilians for years.
