I am amazed seeing the extent in which our collective judgement is warped. You say that they are both to blame for killing innocent children. They are. But are they equal? No they aren't. The one side goes in with tanks and choppers and fires missiles and machine-gun rounds at children, to ensure their domination. The other side goes in and sacrifices one of their own, in a desperate attempt to break that domination. Both actions are bad, both are wrong, both are contempatable, but they are NOT THE SAME. One is despicable, while the other is honorable. Do not misunderstand me: there is no honor in killing children, yet it is the biggest honor to die for the life and future of your children.
The line of equal distances is wrong in this case. The daft christian morality will not provide a solution in this case. In this case, there is but one morality to be found true: it's the morality of life and needs and matter; it's the morality of everyday struggle in the occupied territories. It's the morality that gives justice to the weak and the oppressed and it's only measure is no other but hate. People that hate so much as to suppress their own life instinct are people who have sufferred beyond our wildest imagination. Some respect is due for such a struggle, don't you think?
