"Edit: (General Question)": Also unless I am being dense there seems to be some certainty in a lot of peoples minds that they think the Palestinian government orchestrated and/or knew/carried out this attack themselves. Can you honestly hold an entire country to account for the actions of a small group(s) within that country?

It all just seems very disporportionate.
