A woman looks at two photographs of Israeli families blindfolded and gagged in a tableaux intended to recall the Israeli army's treatment of suspected Palestinian militants in the West Bank, at a graduate exhibition at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, July 31,2002. The photographer, who served as a reserve soldier in the recent operations, said the exhibition at the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design faculty of the Hebrew University, was meant to convey the clash of duty and conscience in the security-minded Jewish state. Less than an hour later a bomb blast tore through the caferteria at the Hebrew University, killing several people and wounding dozens in an attack claimed by the military wing of Hamas in revenge for Israel's killing of its leader Salah Shehada in an air strike in Gaza last week.

The Arabs may throw a fit, but Israel beat them in a week last time. The UN will pass a resolution, but nothing more.
If the Pals want to continue acting like vermin we may as well treat them as such. The world needs to back off and let Israel clean house.
By Andrew HobbsJerusalem, July 31 (Bloomberg) -- Israel's security forces have information Palestinian militants are planning 60 suicide attacks, the Israeli daily newspapers Ha'aretz and the Jerusalem Post cited Avi Dichter, the head of security, as saying.
Shin Bet, the internal security service, stopped 12 suicide bombers from attacking Israel in the past week, the news services cited Dichter, the head of the service, as telling the Israeli parliament's Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee yesterday. At least two would-be attacks were thwarted yesterday, the Post cited unidentified security personnel as saying.
There have been 91 bombings so far this year compared with 70 between September 2000 and December 2001, Ha'aretz said. The most recent attack came yesterday when a suicide bomber injured seven people in central Jerusalem. The military wing of Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat's Fatah group, the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, said it organized the blast, Ha'aretz reported.
Israeli security forces took control of most West Bank towns last month, imposing curfews and conducting arrests, to try to stop the bombings. Shin Bet has detained 2,259 Palestinians, 138 of whom it described as ``ticking bombs,'' Ha'aretz said.
Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon convened his security cabinet today to discuss ways to counter the attacks, Ha'aretz reported without citing anyone. Palestinian Authority Finance Minister Salam Fayad refused to accept $15 million in Palestinian taxation revenue frozen by Israel since September 2000, the Post cited Israel Radio as saying today. The Authority objects to conditions attached to the transfer, including barring money going to the Palestinian police, the Post cited Fayad as saying on Israeli radio.
The Israeli-Palestinian conflict has damaged Israel's economy, contributing to an expected contraction of 1 percent this year after it shrank 0.6 percent last year. The cabinet late yesterday passed a 2003 budget that will cut $1.8 billion in spending. More than a third of the cuts will come from defense.
Spending on combat operations and arms won't be reduced, Finance Minister Silvan Shalom said.
