True Human Tragedy
There was no massacre in Jenin, but there has been a UN panel appointed to investigate what crimes Israel may have committed there. This report will result in nothing but spitting hatred at Israel, though no crimes will be reported. My question is why there isn't a UN panel being appointed to investigate what the Palestinian Authority [PA] is doing to the children with whose safety is it charged? Debka today has a chilling story of a 14-year-old recruited in Gaza to carry out a suicide attack who turned back. The story was broadcast on Israeli television last night, but has not been reported in the western press. As human tragedies go, this is as bad as it gets, but no one seems to be paying attention. It seems that the actions of Israel are not radicalizing an entire generation of people, so much as the PA is trying to recruit as many members as possible from that generation before they grow up.
