remember i am in Canuckistan and fox news is way up in the digital nosebleed section. The liberal Government who still owns most of our media fought to keep Fox News out of the country. CNN however everyone gets.

Israel forces raid Ramallah

Israeli forces have entered the West Bank town of Ramallah, sparking clashes with Palestinian militants.
Israeli military jeeps and bulldozers have blocked off streets near the central Manara Square and a helicopter is reported to have opened fire.

Gunfire and explosions have been heard in the area and at least two Palestinians have been injured.

Israel's military told the Associated Press news agency it was conducting an arrest raid.

The agency quoted a Palestinian security official as saying the target of the Israeli raid was a leading militant from the al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade, an armed group linked to the Fatah party of Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas..

Ramallah, the West Bank's second largest town, houses the headquarters of the Palestinian Authority

Television images have shown men throwing stones at the Israeli vehicles as they clear a path through the streets of Ramallah.

Ambulances have been taking away the injured.

Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat has condemned the "destruction and havoc" brought by the Israeli incursion.
