That means there would barely of been space to breath on there, yet only 7 people died. Although, lets not forget the 700 injured. seriously, they'll have only been able to piece two bodies together. have you heard from a single eye-witness that was on the bus? exactly </div></BLOCKQUOTE> Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daaaaave Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 people also totally off base when they stated Arafat dying would be in and of itself a major breakthrough in the peace process. but hey, bad things have happened to the palestinians, let's give them a free pass.

Jason the Yank Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 You know, MSNBC would be loads better if Norah O'Donnell and Natalie Morales started making out. Of course, I keep waiting for Tina Fey and Amy Pohler to do the same on Saturday Night Live. :/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
