Gaza City - Palestinian militants attacking an Israeli armoured bulldozer inadvertently killed three other Palestinians Tuesday. The roadside bomb in the Rafah refugee camp went off a few metres from where the bulldozer - part of an Israeli operation to destroy weapons-smuggling tunnels from Egypt - was piling up dirt in a crowded residential area, Associated Press Television News said.But of course, what good is the Arabic News if they realize truth when it is staring them in the face? This is the spin put on the incident - Three Palestinians killed in an Israeli incursion in Rafah
Three Palestinians were killed and other 10 were injured by the fire of the Israeli occupation forces in Rafah camp for the Palestinian refugees to the south of Gaza, near the borders with Egypt. News reports said that these forces incurred in the area since at dawn backed by helicopters, tanks, and bulldozers and are carrying out vast breaking in operations, land levelling and demolishing of houses.Never miss a chance at dishonesty even after the whole world knows the truth, do we!

Hmm…just playing the Devil’s advocate here… all the news sources that quote the opposite are from the Western World, who may be as biased as the ‘other side’.
reminds me of a quote: Let’s be fair to the Devil…after all, God wrote all the books!
but yes, the stupidity is up there! am thinking of including this in my OTSDDP list.

Nandan, good point and it would actually have held except for the fact that the source cited (Globe and Mail) has been a traditionally liberal newspaper with a Palestinian-favoring bent to it :)
The stupidity of course, is definitely Darwin-worthy :)
