BEIRUT (Reuters) - Palestinians in Lebanon have greeted news of devastating attacks on American targets with jubilant gunfire, dancing and cheering, saying Israel`s chief backer deserved such a punishment.

Yeh, if we are squabbling about it over here just in a petty way not thinking about the real damage done today which may cause a leader sying and more terroism just think what people are like in New york everyone will be tired and unable to sleep and is us making up our minds on what will happen in the future tommorow or the day after.

I am well and truly sorry, there isn't anything I can do to help and it makes me feel awful. It makes you think though doesn't it? That all those people you hate and have had your differencies with, well they might not be here tomorrow and you never had that chance to apologise. Or like in your situation, I'm sorry to bring it up you must feel awful as it is, but a member of the family dying.

My dad and I have our differences but after reading this and seeing this disaster I am going off to ring him up and speak to him, as either he or I might not be here tomorrow. This topic really has made me truly sad and once again have little faith in human beings? But I'm not saying everyone is the same, but it makes you think.
