>>"Palestinians shoot American journalist
By Arieh O'Sullivan
RAMALLAH (April 1) - An American journalist, Anthony Shadid, from The Boston Globe, was shot in the shoulder and moderately wounded, apparently by a Palestinian gunman, as he was trying to get out of Ramallah.
Shadid had been holed up in a hotel in Ramallah for some time and had been reluctant to flee in the midst of the gun battles. He was shot during an attempt to leave the area. He was then taken to the hospital in Ramallah with a bullet lodged in his shoulder. His condition was stable but no further details are available, said Globe bureau chief Charlie Radin.
Efforts were being made to get him evacuated. Sources who were involved with the incident said he was hit by Palestinian gunfire.
The IDF said they had been information the journalist had been taken to a hospital in Ramallah, but had no details of the circumstances around his shooting.
Meanwhile, the IDF arrested a delegation of some two dozen foreigners, journalists and suspected Palestinian fugitives, on suspicion they tried to help the fugitives escape the Palestinian Authority's Mukata compound in Ramallah yesterday. ....."<<
Oh yeah "sources who were involved in the incident" say that Palestinians shot him as he was leaving his hotel. Sure he was, which is why the JPost plastered this item at the head of their front page....NOT..
Who took him to a hospital in Ramallah? The IDF......NOT..
And who is arresting foreigners and JOURNALISTS per the article? Well I'll be darned....it is the IDF.
Yeah sure the bad old "terrorist" Palestinians hit this newsman Anthony SHADID......sure they did. You don't think it just might have been "normal collateral damage" by those good old boys, the IDF, as they were rounding up JOURNALISTS, do you?
Man, you are so slooooow. |
