        In one classroom Saturday, when UNRWA schools reopened, a Palestinian
        teacher was filmed asking children about their trauma during the war.
        The unidentified teacher then told the children that Palestinians have

        asked her students, aged about 8, how they should react.

1/12    Is this an example of terrorism?
        "The problem was, how do you find the people on the blacklist? It's not
        like you had their address and telephone number. The normal procedure
        would be to go into a village and just grab someone and say, 'Where's
        Nguyen so-and-so?' Half the time the people were so afraid they would
        say anything. Then a Phoenix team would take the informant, put a

        \_ Can you please just let this idiot go away already?
           \_ I would, but the media won't.  "Pajamas Media" hired him as a
              "Gaza war correspondent," and he still gets FoxNews/CNN face time.

1/5     About half a block's worth of protesters just showed up at the Fed
        Bldg in SF demanding Israel out of Gaza. Not a bad showing, given
        the cold and the sprinkling rain. --erikred
        \_ They're too stupid to stay out of the rain.  Just like they're too
           stupid to understand what's going on in Gaza.

        Of course, given the Olmert's circumstances, this seems a bit
        'wag the dog'.
