- It should be noted that this occurred during a lifting of the crufew

- "groups of young men" who "pelted soldiers with stones" should have
- expected to have been injured.

- How many others among the "groups of young men who pelted soldiers

- She should know. She is the chief apologist for the PLO and has yet
- to condemn the violence that the PLO perpetrates on Palestineans!
