-Caveat Lector-
I love this slant
why isn't the headline
"Palestinians open fire in Israeli settlement and army post" or
"Palestinians killed while attempting to bomb peaceful sports rally" ???
did the Palestinian shooters hit anyone in the settlement? I don't know, as
usual there is only a body count on one side.

Doubt.
Doubt thyself.
Doubt even if thou doubtest thyself.
Doubt all.
Doubt even if thou doubtest all.
It seems sometimes as if beneath all conscious doubt
there lay some deepest certainty. O kill it! Slay the
snake!
The horn of the Doubt-Goat be exalted
Dive deeper, ever deeper, into the Abyss of Mind,
until thou unearth the fox THAT. On, hounds!
Yoicks! Tally-ho! Bring THAT to bay!
Then, wind the Mort!

>
> By NASSER SHIYOUKHI, Associated Press Writer
>
> HEBRON, West Bank (AP) - Israeli tanks rolled into the Palestinian sector of
> Hebron early Monday and exchanged heavy fire with Palestinian gunmen in the
> deepest incursion since Israel withdrew from most of the city in 1997.
>
> The Israeli raid was triggered by Palestinian shooting attacks at Israeli
> army posts and a Jewish settlement near Hebron late Sunday. In the incursion,
> Israeli tanks wounded nine Palestinians, destroyed four Palestinian police
> posts in Hebron and one in a nearby village.
>
> Later Monday, an Israeli tank and four military vehicles entered Palestinian
> territory on the outskirts of the West Bank town of Tulkarem and fired three
> shells at a deserted Palestinian checkpoint, the witnesses said.
>
> The latest exchanges made it increasingly unlikely that a U.S.-backed truce,
> declared a month ago, will take hold. Fighting has been escalating in recent
> days.
>
> Tension was especially high ahead of Monday's opening of the Maccabiah Games,
> an Olympic-style event for Jewish athletes. Two Palestinians were killed in
> Jerusalem early Monday while trying to assemble a bomb near the stadium.
>
> The flare-up came despite an upbeat assessment by Israeli Foreign Minister
> Shimon Peres after a meeting in Cairo, Egypt, on Sunday with Palestinian
> leader Yasser Arafat (news - web sites), that the cease-fire could be made to
> stick.
>
> ``I'm leaving Cairo with the sense that there is hope,'' Peres said after
> talking with Arafat for more than an hour.
>
> The two Palestinians found dead Monday, about half a mile from Teddy Stadium
> in Jerusalem, site of the Maccabiah opening ceremony, were identified as
> Salem Derawi, 22, and Ibrahim Wahadneh, 19, supporters of Arafat's Fatah
> (news - web sites) movement.
>
> The two apparently were killed while a bomb they were preparing exploded
> prematurely. Jerusalem Police Chief Mickey Levy said police were
> investigating whether the stadium was the target of the bombers. Palestinian
> officials said they two were acting alone, not on behalf of Fatah.
>
> The opening ceremony of the Maccabiah Games was to be held at Teddy Stadium
> on Monday evening, in the presence of Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon
> (news - web sites). More than 1,000 officers were to guard athletes and
> spectators at ceremony, police said.
>
> The events in and around Hebron began late Sunday night when Palestinian
> gunmen opened fire on Israeli army posts and the Jewish settlement of Beit
> Haggai from six different locations, Palestinian witnesses said.
>
> The Israeli army said Israeli commanders repeatedly asked the Palestinians to
> cease fire, and only then launched the raid.
>
> Israeli tanks rumbled into Palestinian-controlled areas of Hebron from three
> directions. Tanks destroyed four checkpoints manned by Force 17, a security
> service with special ties to Arafat. A fifth checkpoint was razed in the
> village of Dura, south of Hebron.
>
> During the Israeli incursion, Palestinians returned heavy fire, and the
> fighting lasted until about 4 a.m., when the Israelis withdrew. Israeli
> forces fired several tank shells, as well as tank-mounted machine guns.
>
> Nine Palestinians were wounded in the fighting.
>
> ``What happened last night was a very dangerous escalation of violence by the
> Israeli government,'' said Col. Awni Natsche, deputy commander of the
> Palestinian police in Hebron. ``It was all against our civilian people and
> this leads us to the conclusion that Israel believes only in force.''
>
> Under previous peace accords, Israel withdrew from most of Hebron in January
> 1997, but retained control over the downtown area where 450 Jewish settlers
> live in several heavily fortified enclaves. Hebron is a flashpoint of
> violence, with frequent friction between settlers and Palestinian residents.
>
> In the past 10 months, Palestinian gunmen have persistently targeted the
> settlers' compounds. The settlers, in turn, have demanded that Israel retake
> Palestinian-controlled areas in the city.
>
> Last week, Israeli tanks moved briefly into the Palestinian part of Hebron
> after two Jewish settlers were killed in shooting ambushes near the city.
