Palesitnians are closer to a terrorist organization than a country?

That's slinging a mighty big hammer there.
I'm sure that there are many peace loving palestinians and israelis out there who would love to just settle this over tea and honey cakes. People on both sides of this conflict are manipulating their people and their media to their best advantage.

I'll say it again because nobody bothered to answer.
Israel can continue to make martyrs all it wants (even though assassination is against int'l law). The only real problem I see is that they aren't trying to capture and try these people before a court of law. Wouldn't they be better off capturing them and then interrogating them to gain more info? What happened to the days that the Massad was smart enough and competent enough to penetrate the enemy and do them in in ways that left only them dead with no "collateral" damage (I mean innocents there)?
