The ambulance driver who arrived at the scene was also the first to treat the Ghalia family in the Gaza beachfront incident several months ago. He said that all of Beit Hanoun "is busy with only one thing, moving the dead and wounded. All this between puddles of blood, lots of blood and body parts, next to some of the bodies were the schoolbags and sandwiches of children preparing to go to school."
Apparently, I am not the only one who thinks today’s Beit Hanoun incident has the potential to be a Pallywood epic production. (via Ynet News):
The main problem facing the current investigative team is whether its members will be able to investigate the scene of the incident and get the full picture of what really happened at 6 in the morning. "In the past, Palestinians made it very difficult for IDF investigators. They delayed the transfer of important data and were occasionally suspected of transferring tainting evidence," one military source told Ynet.
The IDF investigation will include a thorough investigation of the artillery battalion in the area, stationed near the town of Bari, and the military commands handed down to it from the IDF's Gaza Division.
It has already been determined that the target of the IDF artillery fire was a Qassam launch site and thus, the artillery battery will be examined. Additionally, intelligence sources will also investigate the possibility that the explosion was not caused by IDF artillery.
According to Palestinian reports, six adjacent structures were damaged by the explosion and their residents were the subsequent casualties of the event. At this time, we know that ten of twelve shells that were fired at the target (the Qassam launch site) hit their mark. Even if the remaining two targets deviated from their mark, it's unclear how they would have managed to hit six buildings. It's not logical," said the military source.
Despite the fatal repercussions of the explosion, military sources are reasonably certain that it be possible to arrive at clear conclusions within a short amount of time if they are allowed to investigate the scene of the incident. Immediately after the explosion in Beit Hanoun, the coordinator of government activities in the territories offered medical aid to the Palestinians, including evacuation of the injured to Israeli hospitals. At this time, the Palestinians have not asked for any aid.
Of course it’s not like Islamic Jihad, Fatah or Hamas enforce strict workplace standards so it is not out of the realm of possibilities that one or all of the homes could have been doing double duty as a Qassam or munitions dump which would also go a long way in explaining how one shell took out six structures. Or it could be that Pallywood needed to up the ante on their production values.
Update:
It seems I am not the only blogger who sees the potential of a Made in Pallywood production. Carl in Jerusalem at Israel Matzav has more.

Or it is also possible, Kate, that the palys decided that the Israeli weren't killing enough of them for the cameras, so they manufactured a "massacre" like the ones at the Gaza beach, Jenin, and Qana.
These people are violent animals, whose only care in life is to hurt Jews. They don't even care if they hurt themselves to do it.
