You're certainly free to believe whichever source you choose to believe. I only wish someone else on this thread had seen the CNN footage so they could verify it. BTW, the NY Times was highly embarrassed by one of their reporters who was recently caught fabricating stories out of thin air. That wasn't the case here, but by not pointing out that the incident happened at night, the reporter was, in my opinion, guilty of de facto distortion. Knip

You might be interested in this article. It is written by an Egyptiam-American professor at Cairo University. While it describes each of the Arab Middle East states as "failed nations", it claims that efforts to reform the Middle East depend on a successful outcome of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. I am dumbfounded at such an argument. How does Israel make peace with its neighbors when they are all "failed nations" and the Pals have all the aspects of the "failure" without the "nation"? washingtonpost.com
