Suicide Bomber Kills Six in Tel Aviv
News:
A Palestinian suicide bomber targeting a restaurant has killed at least six people and injured about 30 more in Tel Aviv, according to Israeli media reports. The attack, for which two Palestinian groups took responsibility, marks the first since Hamas took control of the Palestinian Authority. Though Hamas has been honoring a truce with Israel, they defended the suicide attack as an act of “self-defense”. Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas condemned the bombing.
the corporate media
gives a lot more attention to the israelis killed in the war with palestine.

There is no justification for terrorism. Name me any legitimate military target palestinian terrorists have targeted in the last 10 years? Your entire palestinian citizenry support terror.

a good palestinian pr person could have said this:
the suicide bomber was targeting the security guard. the others he killed were collateral damage. the security guard of an occupying power would be considered a legit target.
that's the difference between the israelis and the palestinians, the israelis can afford better pr people.

the best argument would be that the suicide bomber was targeting occupiers and any others killed would be collateral damage.

Tel Aviv suicide bomb kills nine
The bomb went off when the street was bustling with people
A Palestinian suicide bomber has killed nine people along with himself and injured about 50 more in Tel Aviv.
The bombing, which came during the festival of Passover, was the first suicide attack in Israel since January.
The militant group Islamic Jihad said it was behind the restaurant blast, but Israel said it held the Hamas-led Palestinian Authority responsible.
However, Hamas, which has been keeping a truce with Israel, described the attack was an act of self-defence.

Home hit
I was in Beit Lahiya a few days ago just after the latest accident.
An artillery round had crashed through the roof of a house.
As long as calm does not prevail on the Israeli side, neither will it do so on the Palestinian side. Our operations are going to intensify
Israeli Defence Minister Shaul Mofaz
Israel said Palestinian militants had fired a rocket from the area two hours earlier. Its artillery had struck back.
One boy wept as he told me the rocket had injured members of his extended family.
"About 10 were injured", he said.
Has anyone died, I asked.
"A girl, about eight years old."
The round killed eight-year-old Hadil Ghaben - and injured her brothers and sisters.
The next day they sat at her funeral, her three-year-old sister confused, sombre, her face bandaged and scarred.

Some enjoy their wealth by sailing or traveling or learning.
Others enjoy their wealth by contributing to their favorite cause.
I think the comparison I've heard, of the Irish in the City of Boston contributing money to the defence of the indigenous population of Northern Ireland from the Colonial British Interests mirrors the loose conglomeration of the Middle Eastern Region contributing money to the defence of the indigenous population of Palestine from the Colonial American Interests.
Colonial Imperialism, the desire of nations to create and expand monopolistic centers of control is an old evil which reinvents and repackages itself for every new generation.
There is no democracy without the consent of the governed. It is as obvious that Peace can not be imposed by murderous tyranny, or blissful sexual union through rape.
Love can not use Hate to accomplish it's objectives.
War is not Peace.
Freedom for one does not require the slavery of another.
Terrorism is not self-defence.
Bullying empires self destruct.

By mtmeggidoApril 18, 2006 - 10:25pmIsrael is a state that defeated the British Mandate
Israel defeated the britsh Mandate...that is how they won Independence and a state. They targeted legitimate military targets such as the King David Hotel, Which housed the seat of the britsh government in the region, as well as headquarters of the British Army and The police. The Israelis dont target falafel houses and elementary schools. Palestinians were defeated 50+ years ago. Trying to fight the state of Israel with force is doomed to fail. Try building your infrastructure and attracting venture capital to promote business investments and increase employment instead of rock throwing fanatics like the rest of the civilized world instead.
