"By means of deception, thou shalt wage war"
http://www.arabmediawatch.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=965

One thing wrong with this attempt is that the Palestinain group alleged to have taken responsibility for this attack has denied any involvement.
I think they are being set up again. The people who want the Palestinian land have know conscience...they will lie, cheat, steal, and kill to get their way...and we are paying for it!

1. A Rather Silly Article, Ma'am
Presence of an armor vehicle in a new spot is hardly indication sappers were digging in a bomb. More likely is that the shift in position of armor made it seem worth-while to lay down this weapon in the hope of soon bagging a tank. Someone, perhaps, got trigger-happy as the column of vehicles passed over. The speculation on the scene of a Palestine Authority intelligence officer is no evidence at all: he could be expected to say anything to make his foes look bad, and to deflect blame from his own compatriots, realizing immediately the killing of U.S. embassy people could have serious repercussions.

This site has a most breathless and credulous air about it, to say the least.

2. The problem with this article...
Edited on Fri Oct-24-03 08:28 PM by Darranar
and with many of the other conspiracy theories floating around, is that they miss two things.

1. Palestinian militant organizations lie as much as the IDF does. Neither one can be trusted.

2. Just because Palestinian groups do not possess such advanced technology does not mean that it was not smuggled in by, say, Al Qaeda or the like.
