The United Nations Thursday said Israeli forces opened fire on a U.N. ambulance en route to a West Bank refugee camp, killing a guard for the U.N.'s aid agency for Palestinians.
U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan called the killing "a graphic reminder of the need for the parties to respect humanitarian law and provide security for all civilians." He demanded Israel investigate the incident.
If it had been a Palestinian ambulance, I'm sure they would have said something along the lines of 'it was being used to ferry hamas members' or some bs like that. They aren't getting away with it this time because they fired on the wrong ambulance.
What other 'democratic' country would get away with continually opening fire on ambulances?
On the Israeli side, five teenagers were killed at their high school in the Jewish settlement of Atzmona in the Gaza Strip, in an attack by a Palestinian teen from the Islamic militant Hamas group.
Mohammed Farhat cut through the settlement's wire fence just before midnight. One student was killed in his bed after Farhat threw a grenade into a trailer serving as a dormitory.
Farhat then opened fire on a hall for studies of Jewish religious texts, killing four more teenagers and wounding 20. The hall's tile floor was smeared with blood, and tables and religious books were scattered across the room. Army commanders said Farhat threw six grenades and emptied nine ammunition clips in his 15-minute rampage before being gunned down by Israeli troops.
The problem here is that BOTH sides continue to use the retaliation argument.
Honestly, this shit has been going on for MILLENIUM. The Jews and Arabs hate each other. Nobody even remembers who threw the first punch, all they know is that their respective Gods have decreed that the land belongs to them.
