JERUSALEM — Chanting for revenge, thousands of Palestinians poured into the streets of the West Bank on Friday for the funeral of two gunmen killed in an Israeli helicopter attack.
In Israel, a 23-year-old army lieutenant who was killed in a revenge attack for the helicopter strike was buried Friday.
Palestinian officials, meanwhile, suggested that Israeli Foreign Minister Shimon Peres' announcement that he would meet next week with Palestinian Authority President Yasser Arafat was premature. More preparation is needed, said Palestinian Planning Minister Nabil Shaath.
