#1 I've been in that church ... it's lovely and one of the few remaining places where Arab Christians can worship openly without serious intimidation by Muslims.

#2 When did Christianity start getting holy sites? Where's the list?

#3 Israelis celebrated the attack by firing guns in the air and distributing sweets. Oh, wait, that didn't happen. They arrested them and said they were nuts.

#4 Within minutes, thousands of people began rioting outside, preventing police from entering. The attackers - who were disguised as pilgrims - remained barricaded inside the building for several hours before police broke through the crowd and took them into custody.

By late Friday, the riot had stopped, though hundreds of young men milled about, as small bonfires set inside garbage bins crackled and the acrid smell of tear gas blanketed the air. An Israeli helicopter hovered overhead.


This is the part I found interesting. Thousands riot within minutes? I take it the rioters were the muslim population. It seems to be a genetic reation. And stopping police for hours from entering the church? They probably thought some of their own splodydopes were inside and wanted to give them enough time to do their job and blow up the church.

Must have been terribly hurt and dismayed to learn the real story - and the church still standing. Mohammad in the first story certainly seems to be. He still hasn't got the real poop, just hopes: "... condemned the terrorist attack", (grinning broadly).
