Not a really funny post: the statistics of the dead in Palestina and Israel from September 29, 2000 up to May 14? 2002.

Please note: As of March 31st, 2002, the information provided concerning casualties in the Occupied Territories is only partial, and does not include approximately 130 Palestinian civilians who have been killed by Israeli security forces during the invasion of Jenin and Nablus in operation "Defensive Wall". The figures on casualties within Israel are complete. The missing information will be completed soon.

From B'Tselem, a table with all the statistics up to 14 May 2002
