| Three 15-year-olds wounded in boomer attack |
| 2002-06-11 |
| Three 15-year-olds were wounded in a bomb attack. They were with a group of about 50 students from a yeshiva high school in Kiryat Arba visiting a nearby farm called Sdeh Calev. They were walking back to a bus after going cherry picking in an orchard late Tuesday morning, and were near the farm gate when the bomb went off. A They were about to get back on the school bus after a morning picking cherries. That's some kind of military target. The Paleostinians claim in public to be killing Zionists. When they're being polite they claim to be killing Israelis. In private, they want to kill Jews. What they're killing and wounding are women, children, schoolboys, men too old to defend themselves, and granny ladies. Occasionally they get a soldier, but it seems coincidental. This is not war; it is evil, an evil made possible because they know the Israelis won't stoop to their level, won't kill the Paleostinian mothers and sisters and grandparents, won't target their kids on school outings. In one respect it's a bucket on the Good Guys' foot. But it's also the reason why they're the Good Guys. Assuming this war against the Jews ever ends, the Paleostinians will be shamed as a people in the very same manner, and for the very same reasons, the Germans were shamed as a people in the wake of the Second World War. |
