Jim, Jim, Jim...

You are now playing with words - The IRON rods the "peacefull protestors attacked the IDF with were CHEMICAL ( made of chemicals) - They can severely damage and can kill .

It is a war crime to use it on IDF forces and the Palestinians have used it in such a manner; therefore, whatever word games you are now attempting to play, the Palestinians are war criminals.

The use of random mass area bombardment anti-personnel rockets are a violaytion of the Geneva conventions, and the Israeli incurance was to stop those war crimes from continuing. I will take your protests to mean that you do not approve of actions to stop war crimes.

Unless of course you think Jews are not human enough to get the same protection under law that you want the Palestinians to have. Then your statments make sense- that Jews cannot under any circumstances defend themselves, and their attackers ( in a state of war NOT of Israel's choosing) should have the protection of the laws that you will not give the Israelis.
