Aide To Israeli Security Minister Shot At Gaza Border


An aide to Israeli Security Minister Avi Dichter was wounded by a gun shot to the leg fired from the Gaza Strip while he was giving some Canadian Jews a tour near the Gaza border. Now, the article doesn't say how close to the border the contingent actually was but obviously, there must have been some errors in judgement here by the security detail for this tour.
According to the article, Dichter was also on the tour and nearby but was not injured.

So once again, this act just continues to show the brazen actions of the terrorists in Gaza -whether this was Hamas or Islamic Jihad or al Qaeda, it's a daily occurence in Gaza for those there to beg for a whooping. I say give it to them. I say Israel should take a 1/4 mile of Gaza territory for each terror act against them. A rocket is fired into Sderot - Israel moves up and take a 1/4 mile of Gaza. A shot like this is fired at Israeli troops or citizens, another 1/4 mile is taken. When every last one of the palis is jammed into that last mile of land in Gaza, maybe...just maybe they will get a clue.

Here's the brief, but full story at Reuters.


Aide to Israeli security minister shot near Gaza

JERUSALEM (Reuters) - A top aide to Israel's Internal Security Minister Avi Dichter was wounded by gunfire from the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip on Friday during a border tour with a delegation from Canada, medical staff said.
The aide was evacuated to a nearby hospital suffering from a gunshot wound to the leg. Dichter was nearby but was not injured in the shooting.
Israel Radio reported said the minister was accompanying a delegation of Canadian Jews on a visit to the Israeli border community of Nir Am, which is the target of frequent cross-border shooting and rocket attacks by Palestinian militants.
An Ecuadorian foreign worker was killed in January in a shooting attack on another community near the border.
