Israel kills seven in Gaza battle
Israeli forces killed seven Palestinians, including at least three gunmen, and wounded about 20 people in fighting in the Gaza Strip, Palestinian officials said.
An Israeli army spokeswoman said troops, on an operation in the northern part of the territory to curb Palestinian rocket attacks on southern Israel, shot at least 10 gunmen in exchanges of fire. She said she did not know their condition.
Local residents said Israeli fire initially killed three gunmen paying a condolence call at a mourning tent set up by a family of a militant shot dead by Israeli soldiers in an earlier incident. Israeli media reports said troops ambushed the men.
Believing the shooting was coming from the home of neighbours locked in a feud with the grieving family, other militants in the tent began firing at the house, townspeople said.
Realising their mistake, they then directed their fire towards Israeli forces and a gunbattle ensued, the residents said.
So they're madly firing in an absolute rage at neighbours, and manage to not hit one person??
Hang on a minute:
When the smoke cleared, seven Palestinians were dead and some 20 wounded, a Palestinian Health Ministry official said, blaming Israeli gunfire for all the casualties and basing his account on information from ambulance crews at the scene.
So Palestinian Ambulance crews which turn up usually After the event, [you never know with Palestinian Ambulance crews] pass on information of what has happened, when they weren't there What sort of reporting is this? If Reuters has doubts, as they subtly indicate, then how can they run with the headline Israel kills 7, injuries about 20......? Surely prudent journalism would require confirmation before you run with that headline?? How do you get 'about' injured??
One of the dead, Atar Shinbari, was a senior commander of the Popular Resistance Committees, a militant group that frequently fires rockets into southern Israel.
Palestinian Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh, of the governing Hamas Islamist group, condemned the killings in Gaza, on Eid al-Fitr, one of the two biggest Muslim celebrations.
Its not like starting a war on a Holy Day?? Is it ...Yom Kippur?
"We urge the international community to intervene to stop the aggression," he told reporters.
I agree the Palestinians are killing each other every where! Their violence is completely out of hand. These are the people we are supposed to be capable of running a country, and entering meaningful Peace negotiations?
Israel, which pulled troops and settlers out of the Gaza Strip last year, launched a ground offensive in the territory in June after militants, tunnelling under the border, seized an Israeli soldier.
...and killed 2 other Israeli soldiers, and severally injured others, a little detail you missed again Reuters!
More than 260 Palestinians, half of them civilians, have been killed since the Israeli operation began, according to residents and hospital officials.
Yes and probably the majority by Palestinian hands.
At least 21 Palestinians have been killed in internal violence in the Gaza Strip this month, part of a power struggle between Hamas movement and President Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah faction.
....which are directly related to the power struggle but there's another approximately 50 which have been killed by Palestinians through Feuds and unknown reasons.
Where's the balanced reporting Reuters??
But the Award for Absolute deception goes to Gulfnews.com
Using the same feeds??[possible a Middle Eastern sanitised Reuters feed?], and sources as the other news outlets they've manage to edit the story even further!
I'm not going to comment but please read it! Its like another story!

I've had a joyous day to day. Fist there was no electricity. then, an email was sent 24 hours late advising me not to turn my satellite modem off as there was a configuration problem, and those that turn their satellite modems will not have Internet. Then after trying all day to fix the problem, of not having Internet, after the power had gone of, I decided that I had to program my router.
