Gaza police protest in parliament
2005-10-03
Breaking:
Palestinian police officers have broken into the parliament in Gaza to demand a crackdown on the militant group Hamas. The demonstration comes a day after fierce clashes between police and Hamas gunmen in which a police commander and two civilians were killed. "Yesterday, we did not have enough bullets," one of the protesting policemen was quoted as saying.
Not usually a Paleo problem...
... but it sounds like their hearts are in the right place.
The clashes were the worst of their kind for years and came as police tried to enforce a ban on carrying arms.

Popcorn alert.

#7   Dozens of police entered the building, while witnesses said shots were fired by hundreds of officers outside.

It's amazing how these guys can manage to use what ammo they have to protest, but the day before somehow they "did not have enough bullets". Sheesh.

#5  That's the problem when you engage in wanton gun-sex or sell them to your friends. You don't have the rounds when you need them.

#3  Tell them to transfer some of their off duty ammo stockpile to their on duty ammo stockpile. Does somebody else have to figure out everything for these people?

#2  why are we JUST starting to hear of these antagonistic relationships? why has the media till now not uncovered the raging hostility amongst the various factions? why haven't they explored the relationship between hamas and the pa?

why have they made it sound like they all sang kumbayah and that Israel was the only bad guy (well, till they started shooting at each other, that is)?

Gee, the bad guys don't have as many bullets as the really bad guys. Now, I wonder why that is?
