Six Israeli counter-terror troops perish in fireball over Gaza

Six Israeli members of the Givati infantry brigade’s engineers platoon were killed Tuesday, May 11 when their armored personnel carrier was blown up by a roadside bomb at the end of an operation to demolish rockets and arms manufacturing facilities in Gaza City’s Zeitoun district. The bomb detonated the 130 kilos of explosives in the Israeli vehicle.

Masked Islamic Jihad and Hamas gunmen snatched the fragmented bodies, paraded them through Gaza streets, firing off victory salvos, and then announced they were open for negotiation for their return.

Re: Did not enjoy... found it to be provoking.

Hmmm, interesting reaction. I found it stimulating and informative, but not provoking. If I might ask, what do you mean by "provoking"? I'm not sure we're thinking about that term in the same fashion. When I'm provoked, I usually respond aggressively. I see you became inscrutable. <gg>

Now here's an article that I think may challenge you even more than Spengler's rather neutral article:

weekly.ahram.org.eg

Are you now provoked, yet again.... or perturbed, perhaps?

Cheerio! :)
