Palestinians Storm UN Aid Convoy After Israeli Raid
http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=578&e=1&u=/nm/20040522/ts_nm/mideast_rafah_dc

RAFAH, Gaza Strip (Reuters) - Dozens of Palestinians, angry over Israel's bloodiest raid in the Gaza Strip in years, smashed the windows of a U.N. car Saturday and mobbed a shipment of humanitarian aid.

Dozens of Palestinian men and boys gathered at the entrance to Tel al-Sultan and a few threw stones at cars in the convoy, which carried UNRWA chief Peter Hansen.

The army, which said it was searching for tunnels used for arms smuggling dug under the Egypt-Gaza border, mounted its biggest Gaza raid in years after militants killed 13 soldiers last week.

1. Not real smart
It's not as if the UN is any friend of Israel's, after all.

2. They are just going to piss the world off
It's not going to help them get their own nation.

3. No it will not. These people are being attacked by a maniac Sharon
They are being bombed and their homes are being bulldozed.

And their only weapon is picking up rocks in the road. What pisses us off is that our taxes pay for the bombs that caused their misery.
