You need some practice discussing.
First of all, the source of Haaretz is the UN. Even BBC published this story, CNN, etc etc. So there's goes your argument.
Israel DID target civilians, as you can read. Snipers shooting old women, tanks blowing up houses with civilians who were put there by IDF, etc.
You're talking about Sderot? What wouldn't a palestinian give to live in Sderot? Sderot is paradice on earth compared to Gaza. Once in a while a rocket hits the desert, a roof, a garden, an empty street. And then every 5 years, someone actually dies from rocket fire in Sderot.
I'm sorry, but Sderot is paradice compared to Gaza. What did all the families of Gaza ever do to you? You were the ones who came and threw them out of their homes, and bombed them for 60 years.
Thousands of palestinian children have died the last 10 years, compared to what? No jewish children have died for a few years now actually, and none should die because they are innocent, unlike some of their parents.
And why shouldn't Haaretz be negative to illegal settlements? Taste the word. ILLEGAL settlements. It is breaking international law, and it is the reason why there is no peace yet. Stop illegal settlements and leave them, and there will be peace.
