On the political and military faultlines in Israel... Israelis escalate mayhem with botched raid news.ft.com By Harvey Morris in Jerusalem Published: March 4 2002 The Israeli army on Monday added to the toll of civilian casualties on both sides in the Middle East conflict with a botched attack in Ramallah that killed six Palestinians, including a woman and her two sons. In a separate incident soldiers shot dead a Palestinian doctor during an assault on a refugee camp. Monday's events, among the most violent in the recent worsening of the conflict, have exposed Ariel Sharon, Israeli prime minister, to attacks from both ends of the political spectrum to add to his concerns about his plunging popularity. It has also fuelled disenchantment with the tactics of the Israeli army, when the right wing is calling for it to do more. Palestinian officials see Mr Sharon's strategy as an attempt to wear down Palestinian resistance and impose a settlement on his terms. But they say it is the Israelis who are being worn down and there are many on the Israeli side who agree. <snip> Climber
