The Boston Globe Reports Israeli Assassination of 10-Year-Old Palestinian Boy

I stand in contrition before you: the Globe picked up the piece verbatim, and even added to it:

"Boy dies by Israeli gunfire in West Bank, witnesses say

In the southern Gaza Strip, meanwhile, a huge blast rocked a training base run by the Islamic militant Hamas late yesterday, injuring at least five members of the group, witnesses and a health official said. Ambulances raced to the blast site - an evacuated Jewish settlement next to the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis.

It was not immediately known what caused the explosion. Neither Hamas nor the Israeli military had an immediate comment."

I don't know what to make of it either.

Better hit a blog!
