This just in from AP:
In other developments, Palestinian gunmen in black ski masks burst into a Gaza office of the Palestinian Broadcasting Corp. on Saturday and demanded work, a day after the mayor of the West Bank's largest city resigned to protest Yasser Arafat's failure to stop such violence.
But did they bring references?!?:whip: ;) |

| Gaza is itself a ghetto, one of the poorest places and the most densely populated place on earth, surrounded by barbed wire. It is literally a prison for 1 million people. I'm not surprised that any desperate people wanting to feed their families would demand jobs at gun point. |

| So once they have the job are they going to be wearing a shirt, a tie, and a mask every day to work? |

| Since this is directly related to journalism, shouldn't you repeatedly post this in honest reporting? That way everyone will read it! |

| "As senior Israeli journalist Nahum Barnea wrote a few years ago, Gaza is Israel's penal colony, its "devil island, Alcatraz" (quoted by Tanya Reinhart). Even now, alleged "terrorists" and their relatives from the West Bank are regularly deported to Gaza, which issurrounded with electric fences, its access to the sea blocked by the Israeli navy, and is thus completely sealed off the outside world. Sharon intends to keep a 100 meter strip along the Egyptian border (where the army has been systematically destroying all Palestinian houses), to make sure Alcatraz is fully contained. There is thus no reason for Israel to sit inside Alcatraz, with its endless poverty and water shortage, unemployment and hopelessness: let the prisoners run their own lives, while we sit safely all around it and watch the prisoners perish." --RAN HACOHEN |

cool, its just like that movie where the prisons of the future is just an island .. anyone know the name of the movie I'm talking about?
They had two rival prisoners gangs, one built a cool village and boats to escape, they chosed to be 'civilized prisoners' and they lived in comfort.. the other gang lived as savages in pitiful conditions and tried as best they could to bring down the civilized gang. Hmm I wonder if anyone can draw a comparison?
