Just another of the many, painfully obvious, double standards that Palestinians have been dealing with and continue to face in this conflict.
Ex-Israeli minister Danny Ayalon: "This is where Hamas is."
Me: "Danny, where is the Israeli military headquarters?"
Ayalon: "Tel Aviv."
Me: "It's in the heart of Tel Aviv. So can a Palestinian group blow up all of Tel Aviv to get to [it]"?
Ayalon: "No."
