Well, at least if it's on the northern border with Syria, the Palestinians can't blame it on Israel (end/sarcasm.)

The countries may change, the tactics remain the same.

Within hours of the worst of Sunday's clashes, a car bomb exploded outside a shopping mall in a central-eastern Beirut neighborhood. One woman was killed and dozens were injured when a bomb placed under a car in the mall parking lot was detonated by unknown terrorists. The neighborhood is known to be majority Christian.

Residents of the camp told reporters that many homes have been demolished and bodies were strewn in the streets.

All life in Europe would've stopped had it been Israel's attack. This would've been the #1 news for months to come. Where is Fisk now to report on the "suffering of the Palestinians?"

It's good to see you, SJackson. Thank you for the post.

It would appear that nobody who actually lives with the Palestinians seems to like them all that much. Only those Euro/American, left-wing elites seem to find them sympathetic from a distance. Hmmm, go figure.

If Israel, cut power and water before an attack it would be genocide.

We’ll see if Syria can use this as a pretext for sending in their Army to “stabilize the area”.

These were terrorists robbing banks for funding...

Contrary to this article, Fatah al-Islam, is actually an offshoot of the Syrian-based group Fatah al-Intifada, is headed by Shaker Abssi, who was born in Jericho in 1955 and was linked to the former leader of Al-Qaeda in Iraq, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.

Abssi, who was jailed for three years by Syria in 2003 and is also wanted by Jordan on suspicion of involvement in the 2002 killing of a US diplomat.

I hope they manage to kill of the rats pretty quickly. Good thing no one cares about it because now Arabs are killing Arabs. Imagine the outcry if Israel did this...
