Gazans celebrate after suicide bombs; Qureia slams attacks

[Gimel]

Palestinians fired assault rifles in the air and
scores took to the streets Tuesday night in one
Gaza neighborhood in celebration after the suicide
attack on the Hillel Cafe in Jerusalem in which at
least six people were killed and over 40 wounded.


In the Bureij refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip, some
Hamas supporters celebrated by distributing candies to the
families of those killed in previous violence. Some of the
demonstrators said the suicide bombings were revenge for
Israel's policy of targeting Hamas leaders.

2. Ma'ariv online poll about Arafat:

What should we do about Arafat? (1200 responses)

a) Expel him (80%)
b) Ignore him (4%)
c) Talk to him (0%)

Zero percent even after I voted for that!

Uh-oh.

8. Yes, that man is clearly

with the much feared Sweaty Armpit Division ("SAD") of Yasser Arafat's Fatah organization.

Anyway, the celebrants in the pictures don't need to be tied in with the Nazis (even if there is a historical connection). Lord knows, they've done enough on their own to not require condemnation by association.

9. Exactly what have they done?

Are they all terrorists or something?

btw, if there's a connection between every Palestinian and the Nazis, there's a historical connection between Americans and the Nazis...

10. To answer

They have done nothing to my knowledge. This is one of the reasons why photographs are not allowed in I/P discussions. It is too easy to push an alternative context.
