Inverted Reality Headline of the Day

This remarkable headline came via commenter Kenneth at LGF during the discussion of the mass murder of yeshiva students today in Jerusalem.

Two Palestinians killed in west Jerusalem attack: TV

Note it is an AFP story.
Two Palestinians were killed when they carried out an attack on a religious school in predominantly Jewish west Jerusalem on Thursday night, public television reported.

The attack with assault rifles was carried out at Merkaz Harav Yeshiva in the Kyriat Moshe neighbourhood, the report said, adding that there were numberous [sic] people wounded.

The report added that an explosives belt had been recovered from the body of one of the Palestinians.
Unbelievable.

This AFP dispatch is more realistic.

Meanwhile, Al Jazeera English has a claim from Hezbollah taking responsibility.
Hezbollah's Al-Manar television announced that the perpetrators of the attack were members of the "Phalange of Free Men of Galilee - Groups of the Martyr Imad Moghaniyah and Martyrs of Gaza", a previously unknown group.

The claim was made in a tag line running across the bottom of the screen.

Imad Moghaniyah was a top Hezbollah commander assassinated in a bombing in Damascus, the Syrian capital, on February 12.
Naturally, the savages celebrated in Gaza.
Palestinian sources in the Gaza Strip are reported that Gazans are traveling in convoys and honking in celebration of the terrorist attack in Jerusalem.

The Palestinians are calling on the terrorist groups to continue attacking Israel and in several locations, people have been handing out sweets to passers-by.
Update: Another LGF commenter, Abolitionist, notes this from the BBC, via The Jawa Report.
