Oh those poor oppressed murdering terrorist Palestinians, they are so mistreated. But you do notice that they're not the ones being strung up in the village square. Political correctness has gone amok when stories like this are deleted & the Israeli's are demonized for simply protecting theirselves. The Middle East is one screwed up place!

But, but I thought that the palestinians were a peace loving people?

"Well then, how about the story of the two "collaborators" that we killed, mutilated, and then dragged through the streets of biblical Bethlehem and laid out in Manger Square. "

The original has were, not we. Somehow your cut and paste lost a couple letters in the middle of a sentence? Makes a big difference in the story.....

I saw this picture (young Palestinian boys looking at lynched corpse)yesterday and the one thing that really struck me was this...most of the boys look upset (one is covering his mouth, the one to his right looks horrified) and I wondered if someone forced them to "pose" for this picture -- as a parent I canot imagine pushing my child to come into close contact with anything this violent and ugly...

Ya know... the palies only threaten. The Israelis actually KILL the journalists... maybe the AP should rethink their policy... bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaa

I know what you mean. I have two young boys, 7 & 6....I won't even let them see the pictures of the planes crashing into the WTC...when they are older, yes...but right now, for as long as I can, I can let them pretend that their world is safe and secure and that they are loved and wanted...they grow up too fast as it is, now a days. The only thing they should be worried about is what they are going to wear today. Maybe that's a little naive on my part, but, I'm not going to subject them pictures of violence and destruction if I don't have to. Of course, they KNOW about it, and we've TALKED about it, so I can't say that I haven't discussed it with them. The only thing I tell them is that there are very evil people who do things for reasons we will never understand. That people hate us because we love God, we love freedom, and they don't like that. They are usually satisfied with that answer, and thankfully, I haven't had to answer many more questions than those. :-)

I agree. It says a lot about the "culture", doesn't it?

I don't doubt that there's a censorship of the pictures. Last night on Fox, Whoraldo included some film in his "report" (sheer propaganda). It showed a pali gunman in a doorway being taken out by the big gun on a tank. I mean it showed the actual shooting of the man. Yet they won't even show any blood on an Israeli victim, or the film of the people jumping from the WTC. It's not that I'm a ghoul. I'm just outraged by the inconsistency.

I was a little puzzled about the we/were thing, too. Oh, what a difference 2 letters can make!

[gumbo]

The photo of the "collaborator," hanged upside down, eerily resembles depictions of crucifixion by the Romans.

[Catspaw]

Geraldo made me puke in his incredibly slanted "reporting," if one can call it that, towards the Palestinians. His fako "I got gassed by the Israelis" story was just laughable. He's in a war zone & he doesn't have a gas mask? Com'n.

Strangely enough, NBC's Andrea Mitchell did a story about Arafat's duplicity AND they covered the lynchings--with photos. I was surprised--of course, CBS didn't mention the lynchings. I didn't bother with ABC's coverage--I've heard Jennings talk about the Israeli "occupation" in the same tone is former squeeze, Hannan Ashwari has, so you KNOW their coverage is heavily slanted to the pro-Palie side.

Heck, ALL the news about Israel comes from "Palestinian sources". Reuter's is just as bad as the AP.

What nice, caring parents these children have:

Is that even the same guy?
The guy on the floor seems to have dark colored pants and some facial hair.
The guy hanging upside-down seems to have faded jeans and clean-shaven.

Are they going around just slaughtering their own?
What gives?

He's in a war zone & he doesn't have a gas mask? Com'n.

Wouldn't matter if he did. Biggest laugh I got during the Gulf was watching as the first Scuds were hitting Israel, and the talking heads were on the news wearing their gas masks crooked with big puckers in the face seal and wearing short sleeve, open collar shirts.
