Many of the settlers were attending Sabbath prayers in the synagogue when the attack began.

This is no coincidence. The Muslims' hatred of Jews means they not only don't avoid attacking them on religious holidays and in religious places, but they purposely use Jew's religious holidays and gathering places against them.

And the Muslims don't accidentally kill women and children. If they are Jews, they are targets for the Muslims. Sick bastards.

A message to those on both sides of this issue:
Understanding why somebody does something
and thinking they are somehow justified in doing it are 2 entirely different things.

People on this board as well as du blithely overlook this.

Drop the justifications and retoric from both sides and what is left is this:
Why is Isreal doing what it is doing?
Suicide bombers.
Why are there suicide bombers?
Because of what Isreal is doing.

Right or wrong, justified or not,
what happened in Jenin is going to result in more people hating Israel enough to strap on a bomb.
This is not a matter of opinion, it's cause and effect.

If the goal is to reduce terrorism (elimination is categorically impossible, regardless of what GWB says), how can creating more people who are whacked enough to become one with a bomb be considered in your best interest?
It's pure folly.

I don't see any obvious solutions to the P/I conflict, but I think it is obvious that what Sharon is doing/has done is only going to make things worse.
For both Israelis and Palestinians.

"And the Muslims don't accidentally kill women and children."

The Arab "warrior" is a cowardly, effeminate, embarrassingly insecure, lying, murderous bastard -- who is too inept to fight a man - face to face.
Attacking unarmed women and children are about the limit of his bravery..

Many of these false warriors will have to be killed... Many deserve to be killed... I'm surpised that those who believe in paradise when killed in Jihad - are not stepping forward to be shot!

Why does that lying murderous Arafat still have body guards. If he TRUELY wishes to be a hero to his people -- let him step out into the hall and fire his weapon in defiance at the Jews?

The reason of course is, the fat bastard knows the Jews will shoot his fat ass.
