VALIANT EFFORT FAILS TO SECURE GUINNESS RECORD
Israel goes for gold:
Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) has been present during armed conflicts for nearly four decades. It is difficult to recall a comparable slaughter of civilians in so little time. Whether Mogadishu, Somalia, or Kivu, in the eastern Congo, Sri Lanka or even Darfur -- none of these wars has involved operations that produced so many deaths by direct violence in such a short period of time. We must go back to the Russian army’s December 1999 bombing of Grozny, the capital of Chechnya, to find equivalent death rates in such a short period.Blah, blah, blah. Bettering the current record – almost 3,000 killed in a single morning (in 2001) – is going to take some effort.

Are these NGOs trying to out-Lancet each other?
One fine day in September 1970, Jordan killed more Palestinians, in a single day, than Israel has in the last 60 years.
Hamas rounded up about 40 Fatah members and shot them in the street last week. On video, of course.
A google search for "Massacre" yields plenty more. MSF didn't even bother.
"It is difficult to recall a comparable slaughter of civilians in so little time" indeed, when groups like this have such selective outrage.
Thank you Becky for a dose of commonsense. You should be accused of being a bloodthirsty Zionist overlord shortly. Expect to see those Zionist Mossad cheques turning up in the mail any day...Yes, this is what people actually believe.
So the 100,000+ dead in three days of hand to hand combat in the Taiping rebellion doesn't count, then?
Is that the Guiness or the Chris Gunness record?
The crooks. One of them doctors billed my old man $100 for one visit. Souless ripping bastards pretending to do good.
Is there a 'reverb' effect inherent in this blog?
So, CJ. You don't regard 9/11 as an act of war?
