AIN AL-HELWEH, Lebanon, Sept 11 (AFP) -
Dozens of Palestinian refugees fired into the air with joy Tuesday at news of apparent anti-US terrorist attacks in New York and Washington, AFP correspondents witnessed.

Guerrillas in military fatigues from various factions fired assault rifles and rocket-propelled grenades into the air in the Ain al-Helweh refugee camp at the outskirts of the southern port city of Sidon, one correspondent said.

Camp residents, some still in pyjamas, interrupted afternoon rests to rush down to the streets and fire assault rifles into the air, they said.

At the Shatila refugee camp in Beirut, Palestinian fighters also went out to the streets as soon as they heard the news from their television sets to fire into the air with joy, an AFP correspondent said.

I saw the video of this from the WEst Bank. The Palestinians were having parades and celebrations in the street. Hundreds were cheering and waving banners.

Really? Let's see........the Israelis were in the stores, watching on TV, horrified. The Palestinians, thousands of them as reported by MSNBC, were in the streets, firing their weapons and handing out candy -- for joy.............

Now which one should I suspect?

The Palestinians have HAD their last good offer; all bets are off.

So strange. At a time when the Palistinians were begining to gain some favorable press in their struggle with Israel. The timing seems to be all out of sync.

While Arafat makes a statement about the Horror he feels for us, his people celebrate. I am not at all fooled by his lies, and I hope no one else is either.

"As soon as we determine who did this for sure, I couldn't agree with you more."

Sorry, MUD, but every foreign a$$hole who even cracks a smile about what has happened here in the US should be exterminated and his/her/its body ground up for fertilizer.

Lists are being made all over this country; names are being "taken." Debts will be settled, you can believe that.

You are kidding? He will probably speak before Bush does! He cannot stop himself, can he? Well, maybe no one will listen since they are "other" things going on. Let me know what he says, okay?

Palestinians rejoicing at our tragedies??? Okay, all you posters who so hate Israel and who so love the enemies of our country (the USA) . . . . We are waiting for your posts apologizing for having made excuses for those who hate our country. P.S. It was NOT the Israelis who attacked our country today.

We need to lock down...every arab in this nation that is not a citizen needs to have their visa's revoked they need to be 'escorted' out of this nation..PERIOD

Political correctness has no place here,The JOB of the Government is to protect its people

Arabs GO HOME

I can hardly believe what my eyes are seeing today.

I agree with your earlier post here!

Taliban has released a statement reported on CNN how they "feel our pain" - not a direct quote but close! Hmm....
