This is the latest information we have...

IN BETHLEHEM:
The situation in the churchs and mosques is getting worse and worse, especially the Nativity Church. Al-Jazeera has made a report with one civilian trapped inside, who has said that there is no water, no food, no electricity. At least one person is injured and cannot get medical assistance. Civilians inside are making a plea to the Red Cross and the international community to bring medical assistance immediately. IDF has responded by arrested Bethlehem medical teams.

IN NABLUS:
The conflict is escalating more and more. There are 180,000 Palestinians living in Nablus, and IDF has surrounded the city of 400 tanks and APCs. The people of Nablus have stockpiled on food and supplies, and have built barricades to prevent IDF from entering.

IN JENIN:
Earlier today, the IDF was beaten back by Palestinian resistance. Today, Palestinians blew up an IDF tank, killing all Israeli soldiers inside. Many clashes are on-going at Jenin as IDF tries to re-enter. Earlier today, IDF soldiers were opening fire on ambulances, but there are no reports of wounded people from this.

IDF is now occupying or attempting to occupy Salfit, Jenin, Bethlehem, Tulkarem, Qalqiyah and Ramallah. This terrible IDF violence will only plunge the world into perpetual warfare, along with Mad Bush's plans of bloody capitalist conquest, and bloodthirsty Sharon's plans of bloody genocidal conquest. Global intifada now!!!
