Here is a good article to thrill the liberal spirit among us. Apparently the LAX gunman a victim of prejudice. According to the Arab way of thinking, they are always the victims, and the US and Israel are always the perpetrators.

Wife says Los Angeles airport suspect is innocent

CAIRO (AP) ? The wife of an Egyptian who gunned down two people at the Los Angeles airport said Monday that her husband is innocent

"My husband didn't do such a thing. This is nonsense," 41-year-old Hala Mohammed Sadeq El-Awadly told The Associated Press on Monday in Cairo.

"Hesham called on July 4, it was his birthday. His voice was very beautiful," she said. "He asked about the boys, asked me to take them out a lot and to review their lessons with them in order to be ready for next year."

According to the FBI, Hesham Mohamed Hadayet went to the airport ticketing counter of El Al, Israel's national airline, carrying two handguns and a hunting knife and opened fire. He killed two people and wounded three before he was killed by an El Al security guard.

El-Awadly said she did not believe her husband was responsible for the July 4 shooting and was being blamed because he was Arab and Muslim.

<<< During my first few hours here in Gaza, just after I crossed the Erez checkpoint, I passed an orange grove being knocked down by Israeli armored bulldozers. We started to take pictures of what was going on, but nearby tanks fired into the air warning us to stop. We went back the next day to survey the damage and talk to the caretakers of the grove -- a family living in a nearby house. The Israeli army had shot up their house and their water tank. For three days, the whole family was afraid to leave the house. >>>

<<< Yes. I'll give you an example of a recent action, which I was not at but which others told me about. In Raffa in southern Gaza, an Israeli bulldozing operation left a broken, open sewer that was becoming a serious public health concern. When workers tried to fix it, they were fired upon by Israelis. They asked internationals to protect them while they fixed it -- so about 20 internationals came, formed a ring around the workers, and the workers fixed the sewer. A small victory, but a victory nonetheless. >>>
