Palestinian homes flattened
Gaza Strip - Israeli army bulldozers tore down 35 homes in a Palestinian refugee camp early on Saturday, a UN aid official said, a day after a mortar fired from the area killed a resident of a Jewish settlement.

At the start of the incursion into the Khan Younis camp, a 55-year-old Palestinian was killed and five people were wounded in an air strike.

Palestinians fired on the army bulldozers and tanks as they moved in, and one resident said he and his four children fled in their pajames as their two-room house was destroyed.

98%, the bulldozers are made in the USA.

1. this ethnic cleansing must stop. Neither Bush nor Kerry will comment
on the genocide of the Palestinian people. I personally know several progressives who refuse to vote for Kerry, will vote Nader or Green because Kerry takes the same position on Israel as does Bush. Why are American pols so afraid of the Zionist lobby?
