Osama bin Laden, Palestinian terrorists, Salah Shehade, all people who hold women and children in and around their compounds as shields; People who target civilians rather the more conventional warfare of guns and bombs and a specific target.

"Israel's triumphant stance has quickly disappeared. In the wake of criticism and cries that a "war crime" has been committed..."

This is the press and the socialist left with their propaganda at work and doing a fine job of it knowing full well that Palestine is the perpetrator. Israel's Sharon is doing what he should do, protecting his country from those who would destroy it. That is War and in War civilians get killed! Arafat's Palestinian way of fighting is far more heinous and cowardly than conventional fighting, that is your War Crime, not the other way around.

Look at who is backing Arafat, who is sending money for weapons and where it comes from...there you will find the truth and it isn't pretty.
