Young partygoers were hunted down and killed like beasts in the field. Israel's defense <br />forces, on the other hand, are attacking the enemy but not without first providing Gazan citizens warning to evacuate their <br />homes, mosques, hospitals, and schools where cowardly Hamas terrorists hide, using their own citizens as human shields. <br />Israel's is a military operation not remotely comparable to Hamas' premeditated atrocities. To draw a moral equivalency is <br />completely unwarranted and vile. There is a clear distinction between terrorists and a country's defending army. <br />Mark Thompson <br />Cantor Emeritus, Temple Beth Sholom, Santa Ana <br />1 <br />
