We shall always do our best to verify the accuracy of all items in these IOP newsletters/reports wherever possible [e.g. we often suspect that names of people and places that we see in the PMG sitreps could be typos; also the translation into English seems rather odd ~ but since we, sadly, do not speak Arabic, we have no alternative but to copy and paste these names from the PMG sitreps!] – please forgive us for any errors or omissions – Leslie and Marian.

Yet there are still a majority of people in the Western world who wonder what the Palestinians are complaining about? Obviously committing atrocious acts like the recent Hamas raid is not going to generate any good publicity for them & because of its size commands a lot more attention than the everyday lower level of violence they suffer from the Israeli side. I wish I could see a way out of the problems there but as Israel is the power that needs to make some sort of a major concession to bring about any prospect of peace it seems nothing will change.
Israel/United States you mean, they are one the US needs them as their beachhead.
This is kind of information overload in a time where the usual undisputed power in this area has for once, taken a hit. Timing. Still, the maps say it all.
