Look at this sentence in the Washington Post

"In the past six weeks, 15 Israelis have been killed in knife, gun and vehicular attacks launched by Palestinians. More than 80 Palestinians have been killed during the attacks and by harsh Israeli countermeasures at violent demonstrations."  1) the news of murder of Palestinians is always an afterthought or in passing.  2) Israeli murder and terrorism is always presented as "counter-terrorism" or "countermeasures".
