These figures are from the Israel Minisitry, and the numbers will always will be lower, as the other side will always be higher, even destroying one life is not the right thing to do. The leadership on both sides are incapable of bringing peace and they need to give an opportunity to women with small children, so they can look at each others babies and decide for themselves what kind of people they are. The men on both sides need to go back to the teachings of their holy books – killing one person is like killing the whole humanity. Shamefully the Radical Rabbis and Radical Imams are justifying the killing.. the only hope comes from the majority, who want peace and they need to speak up.
