1. what's the point?
"For those that wail murder at the killing of Palestinian children."

There is no doubt that some Palestinians are using despicable tactics. However, this does not invalidate the unjust killing of Palestinians.

And as you surely know, not all Palestinians are terrorists.

2. Well, considering we're using the word 'accused'
I think I'll still kick up a fuss when children are shot by soldiers.
*anywhere*

4. You two
Collateral damage is unfortunate. Yet cries of murder are unfounded.

5. I guess commenting on your post
all depends if you accept the term 'collateral damage' (Coined by propagandists to make the killing of innocents more acceptable when 'marketing' war)

I don't.

6. 'Collateral Damage'
is a proper term. Murder is slanderous.
