"Two Israelis, Two Palestinians Killed in Suicide Bombings and Ambushes"
http://sg.news.yahoo.com/020730/1/31286.html

In this case, two does not equal two. The two dead Israelis were brothers who had gone on Tuesday to a Palestinian village to sell fuel. The two dead Palestinians were a suicide bomber (Jerusalem falafel stand), and a man who broke into a Jewish home and stabbed two Israelis, before being shot by security guards.
