Israel under sniper attack, Hillary on next flight out?

Opinion

A Canadian group in Israel on a walking tour came under sniper fire, one wonders if Hillary, to save face and not one to misremember a opportunity may be on the next flight to Israel in her "Back to the Past" Misrememberances in order to say she too was there.

A group of Canadians came under fire Friday when a sniper took aim at Israel's Public Security Minister Avi Dichter, who was serving as the group's tour guide at an observation point overlooking the Gaza Strip.

Dichter's aid, Matti Gil, was shot in the lower abdomen and pelvis but is recovering and in stable condition. No one else was injured.

The Canadians were part of the Canada-Israel Committee's board of directors and were visiting a site near the town of Sderot. The group's 15 members wanted to familiarize themselves with the situation in Israeli communities bordering Gaza.

A member of the Canadian delegation, Moshe Ronen of Toronto, said he could actually see the shells of the bullets.
