Agree - that list is just more bullshit spew - the text has been copied from website to website and gets changed as it suits along the way. So much for stuffing up website content - the webmasters obviously have little clue either else they would have corrected a few obvious errors. BTW.. Hellbollah didn't even exist when that list started and sure as hell, neither did Al Queda.

Just started looking at one random sample - sure the incident happened, but not as decribed on that list nor were Hezbollah involved. Got enough to do without wasting time on crap.

OK.. Will respond to a few ... from the start...

June 5, 1968: Presidential candidate Robert Kennedy was assassinated by Sirhan Sirhan - you answered already Smokey.

June 17, 1969: An American tourist was killed when the PLO shelled the Israeli resort town of Kallia. -- So??? "American tourists" never were different to others in a conflict area. Did you know an Icelander was killed in Saudi last year?

February 21, 1970: Islamist terrorists blew up an Israel-bound Swiss jet killing seven Americans. -- Sheesh... they killed far more than seven Americans - what about the others??? DUH?

February 23, 1970: Halhoul, West Bank. PLO terrorists open fire on a busload of pilgrims killing one and wounding two Americans. -- The bus had more than Americans on board. Who cares what fucking nationality they are? They are dead - same as all others killed in conflicts.

This is too stupid - I'm going for a long late breakfast and intelligent conversation
