IDF SPOKESPERSON'S ANNOUNCEMENT

During IDF operation this morning in northern Gaza, the IDF targeted from the air two Palestinian gunmen who were approaching the soldiers while carrying large bags on their backs. A big explosion erupted on the scene, following the attack against the two, indicating the presence of bombs and explosives in the gunmen's bags. As a result of this big explosion, extensive damage was caused to a house that was near the gunmen and uninvolved civilians were hit. The IDF Spokesperson wishes to stress that the responsibility for the injuring and killing of uninvolved civilians lies with the terrorist organization Hamas, which operates within civilian population, using them as human shields and risking their lives by keeping bombs and explosives near them.</description>

		<description>I can remember a comment once made by Ronald Reagan, who got notoriously bad press.  He'd shrug.  And, he said the words didn't matter.  The only thing that counted was his smiling picture.

Here?  There's no picture of the doorway/building.  So you can't really tell the direction the blast took. 

Meanwhile, arabs aren't stupid.  And, yes, many of them know they are lied to all of the time.

Winston Churchill once sayd that malice always comes along to attack the truth.  And, still the truth remains visable.

yes.  Even in Gaza.  Even among the blind.

While at the same time, instead of the media conglomerates OWNING the story; what happens is that people turn to their computers.

During WW2 the nazis couldn't help themselves.  They lied.  And, people had hidden away short-wave radios, to pick up broadcasts that told them the truth.

Do you know how quickly the nazis faded as soon as General Patton began marching across the Rhine?  

Here's what I'm saying.  American soldiers entered germany, and were amazed.  No one was willing to admit they were a nazi.  "Nope, no nazis here."

We are not there, yet, with what the arabs are doing.  Meanwhile, we are NOT fighting on their terms.  And, we're not lying, either.  So like detectives; like Sherlock Holmes!  Many people just take what they hear from the media ... and they stop shopping there, as customers.

When the last person walks out the door, will it make a noise?

How many want to bet that the arabs are gonna come out looking to shake hands, and make friends?  I kid you not!  Will they find people who will trust them?  I ask, even though, I think not.</description>

		<description>There is another aspect that makes the report seem more like fiction.
Can you imagine a family sitting down eating breakfast while rockets are falling right outside their house?
I can tell you from the time I have spent in Sderot, that while rockets are exploding, you are not sitting eating breakfast.  You are huddled in corners seeking shelter.
This gives the whole story has the air of someone crafting it rather than reporting it.
