Pancho Villa Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 Palestinian protestors storm Parliament Doublecheck: the article has changed since it was first posted this morning. Its opening originally read: GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip - More than three dozen Palestinian police officers broke into the parliament building in Gaza City on Monday, firing in the air to protest a lack of bullets and equipment in what they said was a humiliating confrontation with Hamas. Anyway, good grief. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldsalt Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 One of the defining characteristics of the environment surrounding idiots is irony. For instance, I not only find it ironic that the protectors of the public peace should fire off bullets to protest a lack of ammunition, but also the fact that Hamas got their allotment from the largess of their Western sugar-daddies before the police got theirs. Well...maybe not *as* ironic. Do you suppose that anyone from Foggy Bottom bothers to read this stuff. Or maybe Langley? The Pentagon? The White Hou...oh, never mind.
