Thanks for your answer and agreement that if a kid is throwing rocks he should be detained in some way, if that is the law, and his parents are absent. I hope Lyndsay also agrees, even if she won't admit it.

But since you've opened it up, did I call for anyone to die, or be cleansed from the land like Lyndsay wishes? What do you think kids throwing rocks are trying to do? Kill people over territory! And now I see you appear to think it's justified, and just a "consequence." It is lies that are the root of this conflict, and by talking about a consequence with peace in mind, and with all the facts, like why kids are arrested, I was indeed attempting to get to that root.

You can't conceive that in addition to Israel's mistakes and/or policies you don't like, the current situation is the consequence of the Palestinian leadership not making peace +/- 6 times, and telling every imaginable lie about Jews and Israel at present and in history? By omitting the cause of arrest, isn't this post such an example?

You want me to feel sorry for 36,000 killed Palestinians, but not the 26,000 killed Israelis over the same 70 years? Thing is that I do care about the Palestinians, want the best life for them, envision and talk about peace all the time, and am having this very conversation for everyone's benefit. While you sarcastically call them "poor Israelis..." Lyndsay complains about an arrest, so in good faith I ask what should have been done differently. She calls me names and ignores reasonable questions/points. You divert to other cases which may or may not be as you see them, and try to frame me as supporting your opponent under your worldview. This could have all gone differently, but at least you've answered the original question now though...
