Mercury News | 09/22/2002 | 5 Palestinians killed in day of protests as Israel pounds Arafat's compound

That's what the Palestinians say, anyway. One of them (according to Israeli sources, which are far more reliable in my mind) was a 13-year-old boy whose firebomb went off prematurely. I'm sure to the Palestinians that's a peaceful protest.

And, of course, the Euros are fussing about Israel going after Yasser again. No comment necessary, since we've already been through this. Apparently with the new TV season starting the physical world is going into repeats.
