Finally, Israel handles its public relations exactly right. Prompt apology with a full explanation. The blame is placed squarely where it belongs, and Israel has offered any assistance that it has.

Good job, Israel.

I'd love to see someone indict the terrorists (under what legal system?) for stashing weapons stockpiles in buildings in densely-packed communities, and then walking, rocket launchers in their hands, amid hundreds of women and children.

Right on the money. The double bonus could be if a trend is started where Israeli info turns out to be not only more accurate but beats the Arab rush to media victimization as well. 'Bout time.

We'll never hear about this particular fact in the lamestream press. We'll only hear how Israel "admitted to killing civlians".

I'd bet my bottom dollar on it.

“It should be mentioned that the scene of the incident is an area of combat and an area of frequent exchanges of fire. The road has been rigged with explosive charges planted by the Palestinians. The IDF has not yet cleared the road of these explosives.

Enough said. They simply want to kill or die to contribute to the media aspect of the terror.

Indict?!? F* that!!
Kill 'em till they're good and dead.
Then go ahead and indict to your heart's content.

This confirms what I said earlier. It should be made clear that people who march alongside armed terrorists put themselves at risk.

When I was a freshman at Harvard there were numerous riots--panty raids, yelling in Harvard Square, and similar pranks. The Cambridge authorities were tired of it. The dean told our freshman class, "If you are arrested in a riot, too bad. Never mind you just happened to be passing through, that's no excuse. Stay away from riots and you won't get hurt."

That seems like simple wisdom to me, whether it's panty raids or terrorism. Stay away from it or you might get hurt.

I am amazed at all those photos of armed terrorists shaking their AK-47s at the cameras. Somebody should be shooting those guys on the spot. And somebody else should be making it clear why it is being done.
