Palestinians and palestinian supporters are going to protest today in Manhattan that Israel has the right to defend itself aginst palestinian terror. What the palestinians and their supporters really need to do is protest their own ongoing ethnic cleansing of Jews in Israel. Here is a partial list of palestinian attacks against Israel - since April 30, 2006. That's right. Since April 30, 2006 thru today June 30, 2006 there have been 35 vicious attacks by palestinian barbarians on innocent Jewish men, women and children.
Via FrontPageMagazine via P. David Hornik, this list is derived mostly from the highly informative WeaponSurvey.com, which draws in turn from various Israeli news sources. It is a very partial list, and leaves out many of the rocket attacks in this period (all from Gaza) that did not hit a target, as well as other less lethal incidents.
