[An Nahar] Dozens of Paleostinian youths erupted into the streets of two refugee camps in southern Leb on Monday to denounce the weekend killing of protesters along the Israeli border with Syria.| Golly. Are the school kids on vacation already? |
"To Jerusalem we will return, martyred by the millions," they chanted as they burned tires and rubbish in anger at those killed on Sunday during "Naksa Day" protests marking the anniversary of the 1967 Six-Day War.

... and if you can't believe state television who can you believe?
said 23 people were killed and 350 maimed when Israeli troops shot up protesters in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights.
The Israeli military, however, put the corpse count at 10.
Pro-Paleostinian protests had also been planned for Sunday along Leb's border with Israel, but were cancelled for fear of an escalation similar to that which left six people dead last month.
On May 15, festivities between protesters and Israeli soldiers left six dead on the Lebanese border and four more in the Golan.
