Israel Retaliates Against Palestinians for Ambush By JAMES BENNET NYT Israel forces killed 15 Palestinians today in retaliation for an ambush in which six Israeli soldiers were killed.
^^^^^^^ CB: I've never seen an NYT headline on Israel murdering Palestinians that didn't term it a "retaliation". Of course, that depends on who started it. The Palestinians , no doubt , considered what they were doing a retaliation. By the way, whatever happened to Osama Bin Laden. I haven't seen him in the news at all lately. It would seem that Bush has failed to get him, dead or alive.
