Unfortunate and regrettable events (Self-death count now at 120)

Al-Quds newspaper reports on the three PalArabs killed in the past two days, along with kidnappings, shootings and various other mayhem. (I had already mentioned one of them in a previous post.)

It describes the events as "unfortunate."

Anyway, as best as I can piece together from the news report and from headlines at PCHR that link to nonexistent articles, it seems that yesterday:

  • In one "regrettable" incident, a man named Nabahin was killed as he tried to drive his car into his garage in the Bureij camp.
  • Another "policeman" died as a result of injuries from internal fighting last Sunday.
  • One guy in the Jabaliah camp was abducted, shot a couple of times and released.
  • A Fatah "activist" shot a Hamas "activist" in the back while he was guarding a hospital in Beit Lahiya.
  • The Qatshah family shot and wounded another "policeman" near Rafah.
  • The same family then beat another "policeman" in a field nearby.
  • Gunmen in two Mercedes, no doubt outraged at their poverty-stricken status caused by the Zionists, shot another person in Khan Younis.
  • Those ubiquitous "unknown gunmen" shot a student at Najah University as he was returning from prayers.
  • At a technical school in Khan Younis, about ten uniformed "militants" of the General Intelligence Service shot randomly in the air and the students responded with rock-throwing.
So we are now at 119 known PalArabs violently killed since late June. And the chaos seems to be growing.

It's a good thing they have all those thousands of armed policemen - who knows how much worse it would be without them keeping law and order?

UPDATE: 120.
