Hamas offers Gaza truce with Israel

24-04-2008 16:26

Tank Shell that Sprays Deadly Darts Killed Cameraman in Gaza, Say Doctors

22-04-2008 16:50

This weapons system is designed to kill a great number of people indiscriminately. It effectively turns the tank into a massive shotgun. Like Israel's massive use of cluster bombs in Lebanon, these weapons are designed to kill whoever is around.
