Hey Nadine?.. Do you know who's in charge of administering the Jenin refugee camp and all of the other major refugee camps in the West Bank and Gaza???

Two hints... "U" is the first letter.. and the second letter is "N"... And they've been doing it for years now...

So the question I heard Bill Crystal make today was rather cogent.. How, exactly, were Islamic extremists able to operate bomb factories in UN administered refugee camp??

UN complicity? And doesn't that put the comments of those UN officials b*tching about an Israeli massacre there somewhat under suspicion??

All of the bombs were activated by electronic means or by cellular telephones.

It's details like this that put in perspective the quote I cited the other day from a French newspaper about how "everyone stocked up on fresh cell phone batteries"...

By the way, I find Le Figaro has been much more balanced than most of the French media lately, in that you can clearly see both sides to the story, and without the hysterics.
