<< oh yeah and according to the church these arent millitants, they are palestinian policemen >>
Fatah in Bethlehem has claimed credit for several suicide bombings this year, including the killing by 18-year-old Mohamed Daraghmeh of five children and four women in Jerusalem as they completed their Sabbath meal.
The Al Aqsa group has carved out a fearsome reputation in Bethlehem. Just before Israeli soldiers entered the town, it killed two suspected collaborators, dragging their bodies through Manger Square, and then killed six more.
One of the few priests evacuated from the church told Israeli television yesterday that gunmen had shot their way in, and that the priests, monks and nuns were essentially hostages.
I would say that all of them are terrorists; just because you call someone a policeman does not mean that they uphold the law.
Can you imagine how loud the Moslems would scream and yell if Christian gunman shot their way into a Mosque and held some Imams and Mullahs hostage?
