Israel Trashes Truce, Continues Attacking Palestinians
Beirut, Apr 11 (Prensa Latina) Israeli troops today arrested five Palestinians and wounded another four in Nablus, West Bank, reported Palestinian National Authorities (PNA) and Israeli military radio broadcasts.

<snip>

Despite the two month truce, the Israeli occupiers continued their attacks. On Saturday three Palestinians were killed by Israeli sharp shooters in Rafah, and in response the Intifada allegedly shot 70 shells at a settlement near the border.

2. I'm sure...
you can detail exactly what is factually incorrect. That is, unless you are unable to comment intelligently on the topic.

some website.......I wouldnt post the actual site either.

I have no idea what your blathering about. The link goes directly to the article. If "read more" is somehow "cryptic", just hold your pointer over the link and look at the status bar on your browser (sheesh, friggin' Internet lessons!).

or frontpagemag and all the other bastions of unbiased and progressive journalism you regularly post from, they're clearly respectable publications but the Latin American news agency is just a bunch of terra supportin' islamofacists right don? :rofl:

hey don I've got a fun game - how many freaky, religious, virulently anti-arab/islam, daniel pipes connected sites can you post from in just one week? if ANY "pro-palestinian" poster can (or has) beaten it with posts from equally anti-semitic sites (without being deleted) I'll donate some cash to your favourite conservative news organisation.

they would need to be of an EQUAL anti-semitic nature though, ie stuff about how Judaism is inherently violent and racist based on an incredibly selective interpretation of thousand year old+ texts

12. And "newswothy" translates into English.....
as meaning WorldTribune,FrontPageMag,HonestReporting,
or the "CybercastNewsService",or MEMRI,or AmericanThinker,
or WorldNetDaily, &tc,&tc,&tc.

I mean,how can Prensa Latina call itself a serious news
agency if it doesn't mention Hateful/Mindless/Traitorous
Leftists,or Islamo-Jihado-Fascists,or even the contents of
the Chimps' iPod? :crazy:

3. That is a rehash of the 3 teenagers killed/70 rockets fired story
of a few days ago - after which it appears folks admit there was something happening to cause the first - and since the second killed no one - things have settled down again.

4. Neither side is observing the truce.
Things just quieted down. I'm at least glad for that.

Israeli occupation forces raid Nablus


Israeli occupation troops have made an incursion into the centre of Nablus in northern West Bank.

Early on Monday, the soldiers, who arrived in about 20 military vehicles backed by a helicopter, surrounded several buildings and called on their residents to get out, apparently looking for wanted Palestinian activists, witnesses said.

The troops have begun to demolish a house, a Palestinian official told Aljazeera. The troops also told reporters to leave the area.

To you know who: It's Aljazeera, so you might want to skip this one...

8. Yeah, and rockets hit Sderot
NOT under occupation, by the way. (Only Tanzim seems to grasp Hizb'Allah's tactics in the '80s's.)

I still think things are better than before.

7. Thanks, Good sense of humor.
Prensa Latina -- "About us -- Prensa Latina (PL), with headquarters in Havana, Cuba, was founded in 1959 shortly after the triumph of the Cuban Revolution. After four decades of experience covering timely events in Latin America and the world, today PL offers 24-hour daily wireless news with the most updated (up-to-the-minute) current events, supported by 22 bureaus stationed overseas and over a hundred foreign contributors, mainly in Latin America."

Really funny. Thanks.

11. what's funny?
is there some kind of inherent Cuban anti-semitism that I'm unaware of?

why would this site be automatically biased against Israel?
