Two Suicide Bombers Kill 15 in Tel Aviv
Two suicide [homicide] bombers blew themselves up minutes apart Sunday in a central Tel Aviv area crowded with foreign workers, killing at least 15 bystanders and wounding 40 just three weeks before Israel's general election...There were reports of conflicting claims of responsibility for Sunday's blasts from the Islamic Jihad group and the Al Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade, a militia linked to Yasser Arafat's Fatah movement. :: This AP report is submitted for your battle for Jerusalem (Ezekiel 38:8; Zechariah 12; Luke 21:20) files. :: I added homicide to the above AP text to note their error. When people kill themselves, it is properly called suicide. When people kill other people, it is called homicide. I wonder why the AP reporter or editor fail understand that distinction?
