Home of suicide bomber-future suicide bomber will think twice before blowing him up if he knows that his family would leave without home. 2. From this home terrorist actions are executed (either shooting on IDF soldiers or weapon smuggling)

1. maybe we should punish everyone like this? your son steals a car so you lose your wide screen TV and leather couch set?

2. wild assumption, completely subverts 'innocent until proven guilty'

The United Nations is warning Illinois heavy equipment manufacturer Caterpillar that selling its product to Israel could constitute a human rights violation. In a letter to the company, Jean Ziegler, the U.N.'s special expert on the right to food, writes that Israel's use of Caterpillar bulldozers to raze homes in Palestinian territories -- "might involve complicity or acceptance on the part of your company to actual and potential violations of human rights."

They don't seem to be complaining about the company selling bulldozers to Colorado, hmm...
