This is a good question. The ones on ifamericansknew include kids killed by other Palestinians (including in buildings that manufacture bombs). Usually this is the case. It’s blamed on Israel until the truth comes to light (if ever).

“The statistics are meant to show that Palestinians are dying more and suffering more than the Israelis. They show that some 4100 Palestinians have been killed and “only” some 1020 Israelis have been killed. Or 943 Palestinian children killed and “only” 118 Israeli children killed (number of Israeli children killed actually dropped since March 2007 form 123).

This is directly from IfAmericansKnew:
1,023 Israelis and at least 4,160 Palestinians *have been killed since September 29, 2000.

*this used to say ‘Palestinians killed by Israelis’
118 Israeli children have been killed by Palestinians and 943 Palestinian children have been killed by Israelis since September 29, 2000.

*since last update, the number of Israeli children actually dropped from 123

According to B-Tselem, It is estimated that 70% of the Israelis killed in those numbers were innocent civilians, and around 47% of the Palestinians in those numbers were innocent civilians.

Most Israelis died from suicide bombings or other terrorist attacks, where the attackers INTENTIONALLY targeted Israeli civilians. The majority of Palestinian civilian deaths were caused by the crossfire between the Israeli army and Palestinian militants and they were NOT intentionally targeted by Israel. This is not to say there haven’t been any incidents in which individuals in the Israeli army have intentionally killed innocent Palestinians. One of the major reasons the Israeli deaths are lower is because the Israeli government takes measures to protect its people, while the Palestinian government goes out of its way to have as many civilians killed as possible to use the deaths as propaganda. The PA and Hamas have been known to put legitimate military targets, such as weapons factories, near civilian locations, even schools, so when the Israeli army comes to take those factories down they would inevitably end up killing innocent civilians. The truth is that the Palestinians benefit with a higher death rate because they can use it as propaganda against Israel. There are many incentives for the Palestinian government to try and increase Palestinian causalities and they make no hesitation in doing so. While Israel, on the other end, has nothing to gain, and everything to lose by having innocent Palestinians killed.”

Even one child murdered by religious fanatics is one too many. The habiru must be expelled. There will be no peace in the Holy Land until this occurs.

the links may show who were shot
but if you are talking about murder the figures are different
to understand that you ought to live one day as Palestinian
all those mothers were stopped and were not allowed to pass through check points with sick kids,others were on delivery on their way to hospital and they did not do it
others would not reach schools and they were on streets
it is a lot if you want to think of it
