The Economist on Jenin
from the rubble-and-corpses dept.
Now that journalists are being allowed back into the Jenin refugee camp, more stories are coming out. While most focus on the horrific conditions reporters are able to see firsthand, a consistent undercurrent is the question of just what took place there over the past two weeks, in particular the treatment of civilian noncombatants by Israeli troops pursuing Palestinian fighters. While the consensus is that we’ll never really know for sure, the facts that are emerging, such as they are, aren’t pretty. The Economist has a good story on it: What Happened at Jenin: Under the Rubble of the Refugee Camp.
