Thanks for posting the pics! So much for the "Jenin has been obliterated" big lie.

But the "concerned" Arab neighbors will not give ONE SQUARE INCH of land to their Palestinian "brothers," namely, because they FEAR them and LOATHE them. They will only let the Palistinians gain land at the expense of little Israel.

As I mentioned on another post, there were MILLION and MILLIONS of Hindus who were left homeless and whose businesses were confiscated at the time of the India-Pakistan partition. The refugees were urged to resettle elsewhere and they did. But the the United Nations stepped in and maintained the refugee camps for the Palestinians (around 600,000 far less than the Hindus) and they were never given incentive to resettle. The UN still maintains the camps and turns a blind eye to the fact that terrorists use these camps as a base.

So you are saying that the Pakistan-India border is a peaceful place with no terrorism now?

The Networks probably aren't covering this cause they know that the pictures themselves are biased.

Living proof that liberals could not get a clue if you glue one on their foreheads! Tell me O non-observant one, how do you take a biased aerial photograph of a city? ROTFLMBO!

Well look at the size of the nuildings around the damaged area, and try to figure out how many similar sized buildings would fit in that area.

Then, read the Al-Ahram article where it is claimed that 50 houses were boobie trapped with bombs, as well as some cars, trashcans and streets/alleyways.

So, how many houses did you figure could fit in that damaged area? Subtract from this number the 50 that the militants had rigged for explosion, and you will know how many homes the Israelis destroyed.

I think that was the part of the camp where the resistence was organized, where the bombers came from, where the bombs were made, etc. I presume that the militants organized in this small area probably rigged and booby trapped it, like the Al-Ahram article indicated, to protect it from invasionary forces.

I thought Jenin was being used for Junkyard Wars?

You know it took a lot of work and skill to film the same two building for a week and claim it was the whole town. Herr Goebols would be proud.

What does that have to do with refugees? The UN stepped in and maintained refugee camps and Palestinian refugees are not urged to resettle elsewhere. In the Indo-Pak split far more Hindu refugees were taken in by the surrounding countries. I think the UN would do well to work out a plan for the refugees to find homes elsewhere.

You can't just accept as gospel anything you see on the internet. A careful look at the source, the what the authors are trying to prove, and why, is all that is necessary to avoid becoming a complete sheep.

Pictures can and are manipulated regularly by many people. It is not hard to trick stupid people into believing anything you want them to.

Well, I have seen pictures now from leftist sources taken to make the scene look as bad as possible, however the buildings matched. So no one cut and pasted extra buildings in to cover up the damage. You know that a cluster bomb takes out a 600 yard radius of buildings don't you? Cut and paste a circle that is 1200 yards across on the photo. Imagine what we did to Afghanistan! The circle DWARFS the spot that is damaged in the "worst atrocity some media have ever seen". Obviously they don't get out much.

And obviously you do not want to believe, even when you can see it with your own eyes. Tell me, why do you hate Jews so, and love Mass Murderers? Do you even know? You got something cooking, and it may be your soul.

That's how the Palifascists can play dopes like you like a fine violin.
