Mideast Battles Kill 32 Americans
Americans have been swept up by Israeli-Palestinian battles that began in September 2000, shortly after U.S.-brokered peace talks failed. Thirty-two Americans have died so far and 50 others have been injured, including many who had dual Israeli-American citizenship. Most of the dead and wounded were victims of Palestinian attacks or were combat casualties while fighting in Israel's military. One of the dead and a few injured were Palestinian-Americans. :: This AP report is submitted for your battle for Jerusalem (Luke 21:20) files.
