April 17, 2002 -- For days, Palestinian, U.N. and aid-group officials declared flatly that Israeli troops had perpetrated a horrendous massacre of innocent civilians at the Jenin refugee camp in the West Bank.

Once outside observers were allowed into the camp, they charged, it would be clear that Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's soldiers had committed a monstrous war crime that would eclipse the killing fields of Kosovo.

Wow, JT! This is the very first war ever in which victims other than combatants were hurt!!!

Damn the IDF, for this precedent-setting trend. Why, next they will even invent a term for it: "collateral damage"!

#122: Me,,,support the goat humping illegal aliens who destroyed the WTC????

Are you doing drugs?????

I pray Dubya "smokes out" and destroys every scumbag even remotely responsibly for this attack.

You, on the other hand, voted for a Governor Patacki who welcomed illegals into our country.

Shame on you.

The blood of the WTC victims is on your hands, not mine...

My gut instinct is that the IDF went overboard in Jenin.

The truth will come out in time.

LOL, okay, Jeth, at least you are equally willing to smoke Wahabbists and IDF alike. BTW, keep an eye on Wahabbism. It is a threat to Western society and culture. A violent threat.

LOL! I can always count on, from you, the most extreme hyperbole possible! Wait -- I can improve it a little for you: You, on the other hand, voted for a Governor Patacki who welcomed illegals into our country. Shame on you. You personally hijacked the planes and rammed them into kiddie day care centers while at the same time organizing major cocaine transhipments and transmitting kiddie porn and ripping the heads off of whippets......

There ya go. As far as the Pataki vote, I just did what the NRA told me to do. I always do just like they tell me to do. I am a one issue voter. Pity the NRA was 100% wrong about Pataki!

Something awful happened in Jenin

Yes it did, but it was just same old same old for the Palis. They used little kids as "robot" bombs, they hid behind women, kids and old people. That is the awful thing that happened in Jenin.

enormous property damage _ the pulverizing of perhaps 60 homes and apartment buildings

When you booby trap buildings with explosives, that does tend to happen. The Palistinians themselves, in their own media, admit this booby trapping. Of course the overhead shots show the area of destruction to be fairly small compared to the camp, let alone the city.

Is the British press considered anti-Israel?

Do bears do in the woods?
