There's a whole series available, on that 'tribal war.' It's about a dozen pictures of both sides using crude bows to try and kill each other.

[shmike]

pretty powerful pics.

Anyone else notice / feel an anit-Israeli vibe from them?

The Palestienian (sp) ones

22 the tear gas, and 26 the missile strike and dead cameraman.

no i did not see anit-israeli. i saw the result of a retarded war brought on by disillusioned fanatics.
should they show israeli's hurt by palestenians? well a) if everything has to be equal, then yes, but i dont stomp my foot on the ground. maybe they did not come out to be the same calibur of pictures. it's harder to get pics of israeli's getting killed by palestenians because a lot less of them get killed from the low tech , non guided garbage.
maybe a shot or two from the asshole that ran through the school jerusalem and got capped in the head by a student would have been cool. or the one of the TWO incedents were a dipshit got in a bulldozer and ran people over in rush hour before , also, getting capped in the head. hmm, interesting pattern...

Fair enough. And no, I don't need there to be one from each side to feel fair.

It wasn't the pictures but the wording of the captions.

Maybe I'm extra sensitive today, it was my initial reaction to those two pics. Just wondering if anyone else read them the same way. :idk:

One of the captions indicated that there were both Israeli and Palestinian peace protesters present.

You wouldn't have gotten a laugh out of our Prime Minister looking bored and distracted, while the Aboriginal representative was speaking in Parliament, the way that I did :lol:
