Israel blames Hamas mine for beach blast - Yahoo! News

Israel blames Hamas mine for beach blast - Yahoo! News: "'We have enough findings to back up the suspicion that the intention to describe this as an Israeli event is simply not correct,' Peretz said at a Tel Aviv news conference on the inquiry's findings. 'The accumulating evidence proves that this incident was not due to Israeli forces.'

Palestinians angrily rejected the findings, saying militants were unlikely to plant bombs at a beach teeming with hundreds of people every weekend.

The bloody images of dead Palestinian civilians and wailing survivors on the beach kindled anger against Israel that has swept around the world."

-Whatever... I think Israel has a lot more credibility than Hamas. The people over there really do seem to look for any reason to help them be identified as victims, when they should have tried to assimilate into a peaceful society so that they could actually prosper instead of having to rely on handouts their whole lives. Of course I don't live there, thank God, so maybe I'm way off, but I see nothing nor hear nothing contrary.
