Balata Refugee Camp Controversy
I am seeing some coverage about the excursion made by the IDF into the Balata Refugee camp which resulted in more dead than any day since the Hamas election win (like that was so long ago??). But my favorite excerpt, which I added below, does a wonderful job of showing how most of the violent rhetoric out of the Palestinians is just foolhardy posturing that can't be backed up:
One of the dead is identified as a top fugitive interviewed by The Associated Press yesterday. He told the AP, "They will never catch me."
D'oh! First rule of thumb, young terrorist, is never say never. Course, he's not alive to be humiliated. We know how they hate that so.

How does the coverage compare to that of the police violence in Amona?
In the words of Clint Eastwood: 'Dying ain't much of a livin, boy'
Of course the prococations that led to the raid are under reported.
I enjoyed that excerpt, too!
They will never catch ... *BOOM* *BANG* (... blood flowing out on the sand.)
I think the management of Hamas is due for a similar operation by IDF.
I agree with missinglink!
There is a verse in the Koran (or one of the Islamic writings) that says that death is better than humiliation. That is the key to understanding the endless bravado which can never match reality.
