Ho hum; another day, another bus full of innocent civilians. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A38203-2002Sep19.html
The Israeli newspaper, Ha'aretz, seems to have jinxed Israel. In yesterday's edition there was an article exploring the question of "where have all the suicide bombers gone?" A few hours after the paper appeared a suicide bombing took place (the first in six weeks) and now today another one. If it weren't so damn depressing I'd think about laughing.
To be fair, those morons at Revenge For The Children or whatever the name translates into bombed a Palestinian elementary school earlier this week. So we're definitely starting to see both sides descend into the gutter. Now, I hope the IDF cracks down on the settler terrorists in precisely the same way that Arafat does on Palestinian terrorists. Uh, except maybe they could put them in jail, instead of giving them funding and free rein and all that.
Great Jerusalem Post editorial (a right wing-ish paper) on the Jewish terrorists: One highlight: "No political agenda nor any political grievance can possibly justify such an appalling act of cruelty." The whole piece is here: http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?pagename=JPost/A/JPArticle/ShowFull&cid=1032275789385 (the section I quoted is near the end of the editorial. It starts out by talking about the Tel Aviv bombing, but then switches gears and discusses the Jewish terrorists) Hopefully someday we'll get to the point where Palestinian hard-liners... their equivalent of the Jerusalem Post... call suicide bombings "appaling act(s) of cruelty." Remember, this isn't Ha'aretz we're talking about... this is the Likud-loving Jerusalem Post.
September 19, 2002 -- Israel found itself under attack again yesterday - at a bus stop where a homicide bomber blew himself up, and on a fashion runway in Beirut, where a shocking, blood-splattered dress was featured. The "revolutionary" new dress, designed "in solidarity with the Palestinian uprising against Israel," was on display for Lebanese fashionistas.
The problem with that dress is that Israel's tanks don't look like that. I love the name of this thread. No attempt to be impartial.
How can one really be impartial when the damn kooks strap bombs on with the intent to kill as many as possible no matter who is there? Reads like the truth to me.
I agree, but the bomb stapping kooks have their own version of the truth they seem to think is pretty damn convincing too, so keep that in mind. They are, after all, killing themselves over our differing views on a number of "truths" about which neither side can agree on. Not that they are right, just saying everyone believes something. To some people killing a bus full of people is fair play since your father took my mothers house 30 years ago. Or whatever (there are too many reasons to list). If the UN wasn't such a joke, it would be nice to turn that entire region over to them for a neutral and peaceful oversight. But that'll never happen.
Another prototypical Swede outside the Federal courthouse in Buffalo where six Al Queda suspects accused of being a "sleeper" terror cell are being arraigned. Here he expresses his wish that Americcans would overcome their endemic racism and hatred and realize that Islam is a religion of peace and love for all mankind and that it is only the foul bigotry and violence of the US government that has forced desperate Arabs into acts which they personally abhor.
For the record the last 2 weeks israel killed 75 Palestinians. But hey if the Palestinians strike back they are the agressors right. If it wasn't soo damn disgusting it would be funny.
Just like the hundreds they killed in the Jenin massacre, right? If you can find a reliable source to back up this claim, fine. Until then it just sounds to me like more Palestinian propaganda.

Who cares how many (unless you're one of them) get killed, its already too many on both sides.
Don't forget all those Palestinians Sharon murdered at Sabra and Shatila. He wasn't there? In fact NO Israeli was there? Jeez, details, details.
You've been called out. Find something. The only report that I have seen is that a group of Israeli terrorists hit some school or something. I don't know what happened. But all I heard was the one or two people that died.
