There was no independent confirmation of the claim. Palestinians accuse Israeli soldiers of often deliberately shooting civilians and then claiming they were resistance fighters.
The military said the man, Muhammad Hamad, 23, was lightly wounded in the leg.

"Minutes later an engine roared and tons of steel - he didn't wait to discover whether it was a tank or a bulldozer - came crashing into the front of Alweda's computer shop. He squeezed his children through a back window and told them to run as the clanking monster tore at his livelihood."

Many now believe that the United States, led by the Bush administration. presents a more dangerous threat to the world than any other country or terrorist group.
With the Bush administration in control, I believe that we pose a significant threat to the rest of the world either through deliberate or reckless action.

In case you can't tell from my posts, I disagree. When confronted with a problem, the worst course of action is to do nothing. We have done nothing, since Carter allowed our embassy (US soil) to be attacked without action, until now.
You and your ilk would continue to do nothing, but ring your hands and bellow about how bad the country is. Thank god your type doesn't run the country, anymore.
Sorry, I can't stay and play, but real life calls. I do wish you well!
