#1 The baggy also contained a plastic Spiderman among the nuts and bolts.
I also read somewhere yesterday that the suicide belt on Husan yesterday was hooked to a cell phone and that the damn phone _rang_ while the poor kid was at the checkpoint. Thank God (and I just don't mean that as an expression of speech) it didn't go off.
In its report, Amnesty accused Palestinian armed groups of putting pressure on families of those who have been killed while carrying out attacks, including children, not to condemn but to welcome and endorse their relatives' actions.
AI finally figured it out, huh? "Gee Storm, maybe gangsters and moral monsters are exploiting these kids and their families?" "No way Bryce. This is the only way that the Palestinians can fight back against Apaches and F-16s!"

#4 Well, at least AI is saying mostly the right things this time. "Abomination" seems correct to me.

Although I am suprised that they didn't spread some blame on Israel or the US in this release.

#5 Getting Palestinians to publicly denounce some abhorrent practice is realtively easy. The hard part is getting them to live by those same words.
