Which is more tragic, hundreds of dead palestinians, or one dead Israeli?

Every death is absolutely tragic. No comparison of numbers is valid; and it is obscene to attempt to justify killing as righteous retribution, simply because one side has killed more than the other side. It is absolutely horrible to kill one person, and it is absolutely horrible to kill a hundred.

The killing has to stop. There is no justification for it, on either side. Neither side has moral superiority. Both are wrong, and both will be horribly wrong every time they kill another person. Nobody can even remember the reason why all this killing started. It has been going on for over sixty years.
