We in the West are used to school closings due to inclement weather or an outbreak of the flu. In “Palestine,” schools are today being closed due to civil war, between Palestinians. Who will the terrorism apologists, like Jimma Carter, blame the internecine Palestinian fighting on this time? From Earthtimes.org:

The Palestinian education ministry ordered schools closed in Gaza Tuesday following a fight between Fatah and Hamas militants that left five students hurt.

In at least three exchanges, two Fatah members and one Hamas militant were killed. Running gun battles in the streets and at least one mortar attack on the headquarters of the pro-Fatah intelligence service were reported.
