IJ boom artist zapped in Gaza
In Gaza City, an Israeli helicopter fired two missiles at a car, killing a senior Islamic militant and four other people, witnesses and hospital officials said. The strike was the first Israeli helicopter attack of its kind in more than two months. Residents said an Apache helicopter fired the missiles at a white Subaru driving between Gaza and the Jebaliya refugee camp Thursday evening.
The Apache, of course, was U.S.-made. The Subaru was Japanese-made, damn them!
The army confirmed the strike and said the militant it targeted was planning an attack in the upcoming days. Islamic Jihad officials said Muklit Hamid, commander of the group's military wing, was killed. Another Islamic Jihad militant, Assad Outti, was among the dead, hospital officials said.
