Yes, there are 'innocents' being killed on both sides. The difference is, the terrorists specifically target innocents, while the Israelis target the terrorists and members of the 'Palestinian authority.' Frankly, if the cowardly terrorists would stop shielding themselves with civilians, there would have been far fewer civilian casualties on the Palestinian side. It's funny, they think they will be martyred for homicide bombings, but they are too terrified to actually come out from among the civilains and fight like men.

That may be, but it also may be that after trying that and getting decimated, they realized it would only get them killed because they were hopelessly less equipped to fight a conventional war. The only victory against a U.S. supported military campaign was Vietnam where similiar tactics were employed. It is understandable that those tactics are being used again where there seems to be no alternative.
