War Is Deceit

War is deceit,” said the Islamic Prophet Muhammad, and some of his contemporary followers have been putting his words into practice with increasing industry lately:

While international opprobrium focuses again on Israel for a supposedly errant rocket attack last Friday that killed eight Palestinians on a Gaza beach, it has become increasingly apparent that the victims were actually killed by Hamas explosives. Palestinian Media Watch reports that “Palestinian Authority TV has been repeatedly broadcasting a falsified video clip of the events surrounding the deaths of seven family members on the Gaza beach on Friday. In an attempt to blame Israel's navy for the deaths, PA TV took unrelated video of an Israeli missile boat firing at Gaza earlier in the day and edited them into the scenes, creating the impression [of] Israeli responsibility….The video of the Israeli navy was unrelated to the deaths, having been filmed earlier in the day and had already released to the media and to the internet by the Israeli army at 4:00 PM, an hour prior to the deaths….[I]t should be noted that not only is the video falsified, but the beach scene clearly backs the Israeli contention that the deaths were not caused by an Israeli shell. Any Israeli shell would have left a giant crater and spread sand over the entire area, as well as on the victims. There is no crater and the beach scene is not disturbed in a way that indicates an Israeli shell could have landed nearby.”

The palis are liars. Whoda thunk it.

I'd love it if the President came on television one night and said:

Listen Palestinians, I'm sorry but we just can't get along. Too bad it didn't work out. Say hello to al-Zarqawi and ask Beelzebub if he'll trade for some decent musicians - it's all been sh*t since the 70s.

I was watching the BBC report of the incident, and they all but convicted Israel of being the perpetrators. They took great pains to show the suffering of the families involved. There was no suggestion proposed that maybe Hamas rockets killed them rather than Israeli shells. Knowing how the Beeb distorts or blatantly lies about these things, I figured the truth would come out eventually. But not from the Beeb.
