11. Then stop the excusing.

If you are truly for non-violence, then you will condemn acts of violence on BOTH sides. When you make the observation after every atrocity committed by the Palestinians that, oh, by the way, the Israelis are bad also, your message is NOT non-violence. If you were committed to non-violence, you would condemn an act of violence and not add the little implicit qualifier at the end basically excusing the act because the other side does the same thing. Those little qualifiers show up over and over again on this board.
