PRISONERS: FACT VS. FICTION

On Wednesday, Israel released 339 Palestinian prisoners as a goodwill gesture to support the road map peace process, despite the absence of any such Israeli obligation under the actual terms of the road map.
In response to Israel's announcement of the prisoner release, Yassir Arafat made the following derisive statement to reporters on Tuesday: "They say they are going to release 400, and then they turn around and arrest 800. What is this? Deception? Are they laughing at us? Is this the implementation of the road map?"

The world media asks: What 800 recent arrests was Arafat referring to? No reports in the recent past indicate any arrests of that magnitude (though scattered IDF anti-terror raids have included some 50 arrests).

Yet London's The Guardian not only quoted Arafat in full, but repeated his "mass arrests" claim as actual fact: "The list of 342 [prisoners] fell about 200 short of the number the Israelis said they would free...Hundreds more have been arrested in the meantime."

Anyone reading this is encouraged to challenge The Guardian to provide evidence for their claim that "hundreds" of Palestinians have been recently arrested — a claim used by The Guardian to downplay, in cynical fashion, the significance of Israel's large-scale prisoner release.

Originally posted by DrummeRaver86 It may seem like that to you, but I have never claimed that I know everything. Quite the contrary, I know that I do not know everything. Just because I post on this forums in an intellectual manner does not mean that I know everything or claim to. In addition, I have never said I am perfect, and I do not believe I am near perfect. It would also be greatly appreciated if you did not pluralize. the "we" should be "I". The people in this forum know that my posts are humble and factual, and I would not pursue something unless I truely see fit. Also, I have never told you what you do or don't know. All I simply ask is that you "know what you're talking about", meaning please make factual posts. It's fine to post your opinions, but back that up in some way. Don't just jump on a bandwagon without reason.

ok so u are not perfect!!
