Crimson > AN Israeli air raid on the Gaza Strip killed two Palestinian militants overnight as the Jewish state showed no let-up in its pounding of the territory that has seen 22 people killed in barely 48 hours.

Reminds me of shooting fish in a barrel -- or caged animals. I understand most of the "canned lions" (below) are shot by Americans seeking trophies for their living room walls and floors. In the circumstances, it would make sense if the Israelis put Palestinian pelts on the walls of their living rooms.

>>Next to the Kruger Park lion population, the approximately 400 captive lions scattered around the country on game farms make up collectively the second largest "population" of lions in South Africa.

In an eighteen month period in 1996/1997, almost 100 of these lions were shot for sport in South Africa. Approximately half of these canned lions were hunted at one single lion breeding game farm--and the rest died in varying degrees of canned situations in other parts of the country.<<
