Kershner's propaganda tales

Notice that official Israeli accounts of such attacks always make it sound that the Palestinian commandos were the ones who shot at the victims when invariably Israeli terrorists are the ones who engage in the rampage: "The woman being honored, Dalal Mughrabi, was the 19-year-old leader of a Palestinian squad that sailed from Lebanon and landed on a beach between Haifa and Tel Aviv. They killed an American photojournalist, hijacked a bus and commandeered another, embarking on a bloody rampage that left 38 Israeli civilians dead, 13 of them children, according to official Israeli figures. Ms. Mughrabi and several other attackers were killed." If Dalal Mughrabi was Isareli, she would have been honored by a statue in the US Capitol. (thanks Omar)
