    Dancing in the streets,handing out candy and celebrating.Thats what Hammas was doing to celebrate the murder of the Rabbis.(CBS evening news).Fucking sickening!!!!! I guess terrorist attacks on innocent people are something to celebrate.

    that is the same shit that was reported before. it was this big outrage that palestinian kids were photographed holding up the two fingers, "V for Victory" symbol, when they were actually holding up a fucking peace sign for the camera. a simple picture became propaganda to cultivate american anti muslim sentiment. and it worked.

    i do not trust cbs at all. remember, lara logan's completely fabricated report centered on a lying discredited source? remember cbs reported falsely on cw bush's service record? you know, the one that cost dan rather his job?
    Really? You're denying that segments of the Palestinian population celebrate terror attacks? This has been common knowledge for so long that it's not even worth mentioning anymore. It happens every time there is a terror attack. It happens. Deal with it.
    No different then the Israelis singing "death to ALL Arabs!" During the gaza onslaught, no? BOTH sides cheer, don't sit here and make 1 side angels while the other is satan. Amazing, over 2000+ dead civilians in gaza and NOT A SINGLE PEEP from you. 4 rabbis get murdered and look who pops his head in in anger. :-?
    Good point. Not showing very much credibility there.

    No different then Israelis sitting atop the hill and watching the bombs drop on gaza, oh and all while enjoying dinner. My how "quickly" we forget.
    Nart,Equally as appalling and disgusting human behavior.If it was 4 Imams murdered by 2 Hasidic Jews ,I would be equally outraged at the act.No one side here can claim righteousness.

    Rod,I concur that during the summer conflict there was numerous horrible acts by they Israelis,again equally as disturbing.But it was all wrapped up into the war.This latest act was just murder(no matter the motivation).No justification for attacks against civilians from either side can be tolerated.

    The whole situation is at a Point now that the aggressor or who's right or who's wrong has been lost and we're just at the point where both sides are retaliating...Who would be the first side to lay down there weapons and say enough is enough no more killing I wonder.

    "In one of Israel's first acts of retaliation, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ordered the demolitions of the homes of the attackers."

    So pity that there maybe Innocent family members living in those homes.

    isn't that the truth.

    i got into an argument on my facebook during the assault on gaza with a jewish israeli supporter that i have known since i was 8 years old. i was appalled by his outright, publicly stated hatred of arabs. i asked him a bunch of pointed questions about the conflict, settlements, blockade, and occupation, that he refused to answer. i think he was surprised that i am as read up and engaged on this topic as i am. i said "mark, why does hasbara exist??" 4 or 5 times before he exploded on my trying to justify the existence of hasbara. he gave the regular canned justification and i called him on it. needless to say we aren't friends anymore.

    Have you considered that maybe your hangup with the supposedly sinister "hasbara" is actually just a little bit unjustified?

    For the record, are you saying hasbara doesn't exist?

    shame to lose friends over it. sometimes its not worth it. a friend once said to me "its supposed to be this way"
