#1 I've wondere lately about how one mishandles a mysterious object and it blows up. Maybe it's supposed to blow up when it's handled. If it's mysterious, how do they know it's being mishandeled?

#2 Deacon, I think PCHR calls it a "mysterious object" because they don't want to admit Paleos are obsessed with making bombs.

#3 The Four Masked Gunmen of the Gaza Apocalypse. Foot Wounder, Mysterious Object Mishandler, Wedding Shooter, and Mishandler of Weapons...

Priceless! Ima lookit forerd to PCHR evary weak!

Ahmed Ussama al-Li, 20, was admitted into Shifa Hospital in Gaza City as he was wounded by shrapnel to the face and the hands

Shrapnelface strikes again!

According to police sources, the two brothers were shot by their father

Gotta give them young terrorists some really tough love otherwise they'll never learn to tie their shoes on their bomb vests.

#4 OK, muslim reporters, a few words about the English language:

1) Bullets are not released or unleashed. They are fired. It signifies that the bullet has no free will of its own, and is controlled entirely by the will (or more likely in your case ignorance) of the person mishandling the gun.

2) How does one mishandle a "mysterious object"? The logic goes that if you don't know what it is, there is no prescribed way to handle it. If you insist on using the word mishandling, perhaps you should just go ahead and use the words "bomb he was working on" instead of "mysterious object". Don't think we don't know what's going on. It doesn't work with us because we aren't as stupid rabid illogical.

#5 gorb, along those lines, I've always been bothered by the term "stray bullet". A Bullet rarely strays, it usually follows the specific trajectory in which it was fired. If you didn't want the bullet to go in that direction, you oughn't have fired it there.

#7 Check out the title page, right side:

Special Consultative Status: ECOSOC
Affliate, Federation Internationale des Ligues des Droita de fHomme
Affliate, International Commission of Jurists
Member, Euro-Mediterranian Human Rights Network

Does that impress ya or what????!!!!
ECOSOC is the UN Economic and Social Council.
Euro-Mediterranian Human Rights Network is a group of NGOs and GOs and so forth that advocate human rights in the area. They have websites. I am not going to link them. Just more bloated bureaucracies, like the UN. I need fresh air.
