BETWEEN THE LINES….

Breaking my Christmas silence because of this BBC item. “Six Palestinians killed in West Bank, Gaza attacks” Oh really? Just killed as they walked about their daily business, eh? You have to read down to discover that those killed were “militants” or, to be more accurate, murderous Palestinian terrorists.
