Israeli troops have fired tank shells at Palestinians in a marketplace in the West Bank town of Jenin, killing at least three civilians and injuring more than 20 others.

Horrible.
The official arguments will probably end up being along the lines of "they started it" -
And after days/weeks/months of anti-israeli trolling, it will be found out that these "civilians" all had ak-47s, explosives strapped to their chests, and maps of Israeli elementary schools.To us, it is the BEAST.Comment

After weeks, namely exactly as soon as the IDF hits one of those guys accidentally. That'll be a new "yeah, we killed many mothers in ambulances, but weeks later there was a terrorist in an ambulance we destroyed without looking before, so that's an excuse for everything".Comment

I take it you fellas don't believe them?An Israeli army spokeswoman told BBC News Online that the unit in Jenin had "erred in its action".
The army has begun an investigation into what it says are accidental killings.

I tend not to believe that army. It's difficult to accidentally shoot int a crowd.Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment

Just checking.
We can't know for sure, though, since we didn't see it. I don't have faith that either combatant (Israel/Pals) will tell the whole truth about what happened. What's the saying? "Truth is the first casualty of war." Seems to apply.

I guess "one ofthem was running toward the tansk screaming and carrying many weapons, as well as an explosives belt and a nuclear bomb meant to be planted in New York City".Comment

It would have to be a hell of a blast to reach here Andy.
I have no words for this, if they did kill civilians, they should be punished, on the other hand, there is every chance that the "innocents" were firing on them, we never get a clear picture till much later, so condemnations are pointless at this jucture.I believe Saddam because his position is backed up by logic and reason...David Floyd

That's right.
I was relying on previous threads though.Comment

Actually it was a mistake.
There was a curfew, but apparently several Palestinians somehow got the idea that the curfew was over.
When they approached a group carrying out a mission of house to house search, a tank opened fire aimed near them, to scare them away, and possibly some troops opened fire as well.
The dead are a 50 y/o male and 3 children. If during the time of the shooting it was clear that those were innocent children, it would constitute and illegal order.
The problem is, that the curfew is there for a reason. The reason being, that IDF troops would have easier time, since the assumption is that civilians are obeying the curfew, and most disobeyers are people with malicious intent.
In another, unrelated incident, a kid was killed when a house near it was blown up. The house contained a laboratory for explosives. The houses around the target are always cleared, but it appears that the kid and his family didn't leave their home.Comment
