MIDEAST ISRAEL PALESTINIANS

Palestinian boys walk throught the remains of the home of Raed Karni, a local militia leader in the West Bank town of Tulkarem who was accused by Israel of involvement in killing five Israelis, which was demolished by Israeli army bulldozers early Wednesday, Oct. 24 2001. Israeli troops entered two West Bank villages Wednesday, killing at least six Palestinians in the incursion, despite U.S. President George Bush's request that Israel withdraw from Palestinian areas "as quickly as possible".
