Since U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan has disbanded the fact-finding mission to the Jenin refugee camp, people will just have to take their facts where they find them.

And where will they find them? Not under the Jenin rubble, which has yielded zero evidence of the "massacre" Israel was falsely accused of committing during its military raid on the terrorist stronghold last month.

Such testimonies only bolster Israel's description of the fierce battle that claimed the lives of 23 Israeli soldiers and roughly 50 Palestinians, mainly fighters, as the Israeli army fought house-to-booby-trapped house, seeking to minimize civilian casualties as it attempted to destroy a terrorist infrastructure responsible for dozens of suicide attacks.
