“Palestinian” Muslim murders Israeli soldier by striking him in the head with a heavy rock
And the New York Times’ lead paragraph is “A 21-year-old Israeli soldier was killed early Tuesday when he was struck in the head by a heavy rock as his unit was completing a nighttime arrest mission in a Palestinian village near Jenin, in the northern West Bank, the army said.” Sounds as if it could […]
