Palestinian Civil War spreads to West Bank?

Flames rise from building housing a club affiliated with Hamas after it was set on fire by Fatah militants in the West Bank town of Jenin, Wednesday, June 13, 2007. At least 15 people were killed in the internal fighting between Hamas and Fatah in Gaza Wednesday, bringing the total in the four-day campaign to nearly 60. (AP Photo/Mohammed Ballas)

Here is what a handful of random people think about this article. But first, the fine print:
The opinions expressed here, even where approved for display, do not necessarily reflect the opinions of this website, the management, or any other entity or organization, with the exception of the Vast Zionist Conspiracy. Those opinions we represent in style, yo. Please keep the language in these comments clean, as this is intended to be a family-friendly, work-friendly website. Comments not compliant with this policy will be edited for content where necessary. Abusive or otherwise illegal comments will be reported to the proper authorities, up to and including the aforementioned Vast Zionist Conspiracy. The Management cannot and will not be held responsible for commenters making a spectacle of themselves, even if The Management are the said commenters in question. In other words, don't take yourself so seriously, folks. We're all here to discuss the news, and more importantly, to have fun. Now go get yourself into some OCD treatment program—you obviously need it if you actually read all of this mess.

*I am not finding much of anything online. Not even fox news has said much about it.

This is enormous. But no, Paris "the slut" Hilton garners nearly 3 days of press.

*Because nobody gives a shit about "The West Bank". Wherever that is. I thought the West Bank referred to Portsmouth. LOL!

*LOL, Roost. I'd be surprised if you could find Portsmouth on a map!

Kidding, of course!

*LOL, okay, so the English weren't always known for their <i>imaginative</i> place-naming conventions.

You're killin' me over here!
