Palestinian Refugees in Lebanon Celebrate Tel Aviv Attack

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Palestinian refugees living in Lebanese camps celebrated Wednesday after a bomb ripped through a bus in Tel Aviv injuring 17 people, camp residents told Agence France Presse.

In Nahr al-Bared camp in north Lebanon muezzins sang out words of praise to God via their megaphones, while fireworks lit the sky and fighters handed out sweets, residents said.

In Ain al-Hilweh near the southern city of Sidon, fighters shot live rounds into the air, while Islamist militants chanted religious texts.

Medics said at least 17 people were injured in what Israel said was "a terrorist attack."

The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command (PFLP-GC) has claimed responsibility for the attack.

The blast took place as U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was in Israel for talks with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on ways to end a deadly spike in bloodshed in and around Gaza over the past week.

Never fired a gun although I own an inherited 50 y.o rifle gun in the European country I live in. I'd like to try target shooting w/ a hand gun.

Who didn't steal candy? We all did when we were preteens.

Unfortunately, after a time guests become pests, and it is time that Lebanon crushed these pests.
By the way according to the strict understanding of the word "refugee" it is someone who has been displaced from wherever he was born, either internally in the country or out of it. So the refugees in Lebanon are all over 64 years old, all the other are just Lebanese-born Palestinians.

No phillipo, a refugee is also one who is descended from a refugee while he continues to have the refugee status. You are the pest who come to this site defending the terrorist israel. May God crush you just like you deserve. You are filth and will remain filth.

Nothing sick about celebrating that the enemy who has killed on a ration of 20-1 for over 60 years is harmed. That is only human to celebrate after the one who has terrorized you in hundreds of ways including stealing your land, your house, killing your children, parents, spouses, injuring hundreds of thousands, destroying schools, mosques, churches, historic buildings, uprooting trees, destroying fields, lying about you etc etc FINALLY gets a piece of their own medicine back. Whether its in lebanon, the US, Ecuador, Spain, Sweden or anywhere else, people celebrate when their opressor is harmed. Its called being human, its only natural.

Who are "we"? Because last time i checked, the army has been attacked by basicly every single lebanese faction (or supporters of that faction that is). So why is it that if a Palestinian fires at the army (which almost never happens, (fath el islem were not a palestinian group), all of a sudden you blame all, and say things such as we are at the end of our patience with them. Had you been smart then you should be at the end of your patience with criminals PERIOD, most criminals in lebanon are lebanese so stop being unjust. Australian racists say the same things about lebanese in their country.
