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.

Next thing we'll hear is that they blame the Israelis for all the people that get killed by the slugs when they come down. Duh.

Bill Clinton better keep HIS mouth shut now. That's about as easy as asking the sun not to set in the west.
He's gonna open his big mouth and he's going to blame Bush for this. Insinuating that if Gore was Prez, this never would have happened.

If Clinton hadn't been playing Hide The Salami with his staff, he wouldn't have to worry about wagging the dog.

While Arafat makes a statement about the Horror he feels for us, his people celebrate. I heard that the media in Lebanon actually called for the celebrations in the street. Arafat is a two faced piece of shiite, he controls the media. AII, is it true that the PA TV is calling for the celebrations?

There are lots of pro-American Lebanese Christians in Beirut. We should wipe out Syria for helping these scum.

"...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." I tend to agree and the Lebanese folks who are treating this tragedy as a reason for celebration are nothing short of sub-human. I expect we'll soon find out that the Palestinians are responsible for this, and I'll then join you in calling for Justice to be exacted upon the Guilty and their Accomplices in a way that'll dwarf the crimes they have committed!!

I believe that you are sadly mistaken. We now have a president who does not use tragedy and propaganda to cover his sorry behind.
