[Promotum] Sleeping with the enemy

Interesting article over at Salon about a gay couple; one Israeli, one
Palestinian. Some of the Israeli fellow's comments are rather
enlightening regarding why there's such a problem over there (um, human
rights abuses, anyone?).

According to this article at msnbc, the death toll since 9-2000 is 987
Palestinian to 281 Israeli. But keep in mind that the Israeli deaths are
at the hands of terrorists, while the 987 Palestinians are "retaliation"
by Israeli military and police forces. State sponsored terrorism, as far
as I'm concerned. And we continue to funnel money to them for what reason?
