Ambulances are responding to a reported explosion in Jerusalem on Shmuel HaNavi Street.
Several children killed and hurt...
Looks like someone lost their map...
Slowly and gradually this forum is becoming my source of news.
Seriously dude, are u always on the net 24/7 
Sad news, it's a major setback for both sides..:(
20 dead including several children and 74 hurt. Islamic Jihad and Hamas have both claimed responsibility.
it was coming and everybody knew that. despite on-goingpeace talks, isreal did not bother to stop its aggression in palestenian citys and kept on target-killing leaders and civilians.
when u talk abt peace, you have to take measures to make sure it is not derailed but isreal failed miserably and so today here we are. :~)

Perhaps turning over cities to the PA was a mistake as was freeing hundreds of prisoners. Hamas and Jihad must be disarmed for Israel to go forth with any further peace agreement, if the PA cannot do that then Israel must.
there is no end in sight to this madness

and isreal must pull out its troops from Palestenians areas, free the prisoners and cancel its policy to target palestinian leaders. if isreal can't do that then there is hamas and Jihad to make them do it. :~)

Killing innocent children will actually have the opposite effect on Israel. Israel was due to handover more towns this week as long as security could be assured, that won’t happen now and a response from Israel is forthcoming.
Here’s a description of events from Reuters that will surely make many proud. Might even prompt celebratory gunfire among those viewing these martyrdom attacks as a badge of honor.
"JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Body bags piled up so fast in the middle of a roundabout on a Jerusalem street on Tuesday night that emergency workers could barely keep from stacking them one on top of the other.
** All around, the carnage left by a Palestinian suicide bombing on a city bus packed with ultra-Orthodox Jews littered the pavement – severed arms, legs, a lower torso and bits of flesh and bone. The stench of burned flesh hung in the air. **
As mangled bodies were pulled one after another from the shattered double-length bus, workers rushed to sheath them in white plastic. The death count soon climbed to at least 20.
** The smaller bundles held the corpses of children, some of them babies in diapers. **
Zelig Feiner, an official of ZAKA, an ultra-Orthodox burial society that dispatches crews to all Israeli bomb scenes, said the sight they met was as gruesome as any they had encountered in 34 months of Israeli-Palestinian violence.
** “There were small babies bleeding on the ground. One of our workers was leaning over an infant, no more than 15 months old, giving mouth-to-mouth resuscitation,” he said.
“It was hopeless.” **

Oh well.. I am surprised that Israelis have not lost their cool. They certainly have the means to bury the entire region deep into sand. May be they will soon. It will solve a whole lot of problems.

well wht are they waitin for then? why aren't they tryin that? :~)
MV, there is nothing to be proud off. isreal got what it deserved. innocent ppl get killed every day on the palestinian side by isreali solders. its nothing new for us if a few got killed on isreali side. afterall isreal did said its a war against terrorism and so is for palestinians. :~)
On one hand they were making peace and on other hand they are leaving no chance to blow up opponent. This peace plan was destined to be trashed anyway, everybody knew what was gonna happen. Israel won't stop targeting their leaders and they won't stop taking revenge their way, such a sad situation.

and you don't see the innocent kids and innocent people being killed by israelis? Its not worth for both of them to cary out attacks of such kind in which innocent people are killed but I doubt both parties will realise. I think Israel needs to take first step towards the peace process by freeing PA prisoners and giving PA their land back.
The first aggressors in this conflict were the Israelis. There was no Israel 55 years ago. The people who started this need to give back what is not theirs to begin with. Until then, the Palestinians are fighting a war of survival with whatever they have. All the billions from the U.S. and Europe and naked aggression by the Israelis has not silenced the Palestinians. That is a fact.
i never said that it is OK to kill palestinians kids. my point was that muslims don’t need to stoop down to that level. Islam doesn’t allow the killing of children. Maybe hamas got some exemption, but I don’t know about that.

well if you have kidz why don't you move them to palestine, then sit here and see wht will happen to them?
you are so passionate about muslims and innocent kids being killed. well are isrealis making any distinctions when they go on killing rampage in palestinian citys?
i don't support the killings of innocents be it the elders or kids but occupation must end. isreal must realize that its policy of aggression won't help anyone. ppl will keep on dyin on both sides. give palestinians their citys back. let them have a normal life to live. then we'll see if any body got killed on either side. you can't just sit and let ur ppl die. you have to hit back to show ur not defenseless.
