    Well That Sucks =( Hopefully this will generate some sort of peaceful and thought out reaction in Israel, that will possibly bring upon acceptance, but knowing that area, it's not too probable, but its not impossible.

    Knowing the area I'd say it's impossible. Chances are some Palestinians will have their houses bulldozed and 20 will be killed in retaliation, regardless of who the aggressor is in this attack.

    Damn. And what makes it worse was that this was teenagers that were killed. Who honestly goes and kills children? No better than a nazi...

    In the comments:

    ... Or he could have been a self-loathing, internalized homophobic GLBT, driven by rage against himself, considering that might be a GLBT's biggest problem with being GLBT?

    It's a small chance, but still. If the shooter was GLBT, it wouldn't be because out of brutal hatred or vengeance towards their ex-partner.

    its sick i said yesterday ill say today anyone lgbt just leave, its not a part of the world you can be free to be yourself in.

    and nowhere seems to want to do anythign about it. they just end up blaming lgbt people for bringing it on themselves.

    'tis sad. 'Least Israel's not too bad on the old Rights front, but I've heard it's all a bit smoke and mirrors outside of Tel Aviv (as in it's a bit of a Boston) - it's not really accepted anywhere else in Israel, 'cept Elat - but that's full of tourists.
