<One - that "stray fire" is going to hit a kid at 500 yards, and

Nope. They killed him.



Did you even run this through your forebrain before you kneejerked back at me?

Why in the hell would a stray bullet, i.e. one that missed an intended target and continued onward--be any less lethal than a deliberately aimed one?

The other option--that an Israeli soldier, ignoring the rockthrowing action right in front of him, targeted a kid walking home from school two football fields away without a telescopic sight and somehow shot him in the head on purpose--actually IS a crock.

Your brain has totally curdled on this subject*. I'm not sure it's even worth responding any more.

*The other one being the "war for oil" parrotspeak
