And I'm sure they'll be bragging about that bus and the maimed Israelis in it any minute.

Just as I'm sure you'll all be terribly upset about that blood and those scattered body parts.

No hypocrisy here.

just over the TOPIC ITSELF all over this board.

And I'm guilty of it myself, because I don't like Netanyahu OR Hamas. But lately I've been soul searching over this mess, and here we are on DU reflecting the same discord.

How do we escape this mess?

Maybe just an oversight?

In any event, our goal is to simply keep LBN - Late Breaking News. The simpler the better. Many members and visitors use this forum as a resource for news, often overlooked by the MSM. That's the reasoning for a specific title line that matches the cited piece and a clear link to the source.

Thanks. ~ pinto
