Kesher Talk

No Israelis dead, Arabs still dance in streets: Thousands of Arabs living in PLO-controlled Gaza City took to the streets last night to celebrate the deadly bombing at Hebrew University. Music blared from speakers as Arabs, both young and old danced and sang into the late hours of the night. Several men climbed on to the roof of a car and threw candy into the crowd. The scene was reminiscent of the party that erupted in the Arab street throughout Yesha (Judea, Samaria, and Gaza) following the September 11, 2001 attack on America.

All this, and none of the dead appear to be Israeli...

Update: Sorry, make that two of the dead are Israeli. I suppose that would count for them as worth celebrating. But they are probably more excited about the five dead Americans... though Hamas certainly seems to be wetting its pants about it...
