[edit] Disgusting Level of Bias

To be frank, this article is rubbish. Just like most of the other articles in this series, Palestinian civilians have systematically been omitted, whereas Israeli ones are mentioned in detail. The killing of 117 Palestinians in 7 days alone (Feb. 28 - Mar. 3), far more than the number of Israelis killed for the whole year, is buried in a couple of lines. The sourcing is bad as well.

The Associated Press, New York Times, Los Angeles Times... right... bad sources. Who would trust them for news? --Shamir1 (talk) 07:48, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
I only edit this article on an occasional basis, adding usually whatever blurb pops up in the news. Whatever is reported is copied unto here. It is true that many Palestinians were killed this year. It is also true that most of them were militants and the vast majority (if not all) of civilian casualties were killed during the course of Israeli strikes on militants--and this included in the article. --Shamir1 (talk) 07:52, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
