are the appropriate Palestinian response to the pilots petition that was submitted before Rosh Hashanah, and adds that while We engage in intellectual discussions on how to catch abominable murderers while ensuring the minimum number of civilian casualties the Palestinians are making maximum efforts to murder civilians. The editors argue that In war
you cannot be neutral and you cannot sit on the fence. Whoever is capable of eliminating child murderers and refrains from doing so, must bear responsibility for their deaths. Yediot Ahronot notes that Three years of the intifada were stamped with the murder of a baby and a resident in a terror attack on the Negohot settlement, and comments that while the pictures are tragic, it must be asked why it was possible for an armed terrorist to infiltrate an unguarded settlement located in the heart of areas in dispute. The paper calls on the government to compel settlers to put up fences and to take every step to make it more difficult to perpetrate such attacks. Yediot Ahronot, in its second editorial, discusses Col. Rans retrof his signature on the pilots letter refusing to carry out eliminations. The editors call on OC Air Force to seriously consider the conditions under which 27 of its pilots took such a step. Yediot Ahronot, in its third editorial, asks the government What it intends to do in light of the fact that 72% of civilians believe that there is no future for youth here?
