Haaretz: A Hezbollah rocket attack on the northern town of Nazareth killed two Israeli Arab children on Wednesday afternoon, bringing to 16 the death toll from rocket strikes since the crisis in Lebanon began a week ago.The Jawa Report has asked Jesus of Nazareth for comment. He was unavailable at this time but his office released this statement.Another 12 people sustained light wounds in the attack, and were evacuated to the Italian Hospital in the town.
The two siblings were killed by a direct hit from a rocket, the Israel Defense Forces said. It was the first attack on the town.
Mohammed Assawi, who saw the attack, told Channel 10 television that the rocket that killed the two children struck in the middle of a downtown street.
"It's a vacation and it's afternoon so where will they go if not to play in the streets?" he said. "It is unpleasant to say what we saw."
Biblegateway.org: But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me.So keep it up Hezbollah. You so much as touch another brick in Nazareth or other Christian sites in the holy land and we promise you will have more than the Israelis to worry about. Try a billion Christians add to that Israeli Arab Muslims who live in and respect the hometown of Jesus. Also a prophet under Islam.
Nazareth has a population of 60,000. The majority of Nazarenes are Israeli Arabs, about 35-40% of which are Christians and the rest are Muslims.Also see Israelicool for more updates. To me this is equivilant to bombing Medina or Mecca. Intollerable.

Those idiots sure know how to "win friends & influence people," don't they?
I hope these particular facts get a ton of play.

It should be noted that the Arabs of Nazareth and other Israeli towns have received much less civil defense spending--ie, fewer if any bomb shelters. Big article about it the other day in the Wpost. I'd rather be an Israeli Arab than an Arab in any other country in the region (unless I was guaranteed to be a Saudi oil sheik--now that is good living!) but they do face systemic discrimination.

Lebenon is a Young Government kind of like a 6 or 7 year old kid. They just found out that Aunt Deb and Uncle Kos have not been giving them special attention and love, that the other kids don't get. Then aunt Deb gets caught Filching from the neighbor, to maintain her crack habit and to buy some smokes. (For the real thick headed folks, The Neighbor is Israel.) Israel comes after them with a vengence, with intentions to remove the people bringing down the property values in that part of the neighborhood. But instead of accepting reality, and changing their ways, Uncle Kos, and crackhead Aunt Deb, keep keepin on. Israel says BS! Calls out the dogs, and begins to run Aunt Deb out of his backyard. Because living next to Deb Hizballer is akin to living next to a damn trailer park. Between the Theives and the Pedophiles, you never get a moments peace.
Hezballer gets scared, and looks for a place to go, but Uncle Kos won't Let Aunt Deb back in without the Rock and the smokes. So Aunt Deb starts busting some caps, and raising all kinds of hell like she is crazy. Since Israel knows it will take the cops (see U.N. charter), forever to get there, he sees no other recourse than to shoot back. The neighborhood response is muted considering Jews are shooting at Arabs. But then nobody really wants to claim the kid, because then they might have to be responsible for her. Too messy with Aunt Deb in the mix. She may really be nuts, and shoot at anyone who goes against her. Uncle Kos can't be depended on to prevent her from a sudden knee jerk reaction. Something that could perhaps be bad for everyone.
Then there is Israel, Backed up by their Uncle Sam. Aunt Deb should be scared. Uncle Sam is Federal. Says there is a Texan running things, and he isn't afraid to pull the trigger.
Sorry, I got caught up in the story.
