Two Palestinians killed in Gaza
A seven-year-old Palestinian girl was killed by Israeli forces in the town of Khan Yunis in the southern Gaza Strip on Friday shortly after a nearby mortar attack by militant Palestinian group Hamas, medical officials said.
"We were having lunch when suddenly there were some explosions and automatic gunfire," the victim's father Omar Siam, 50, told AFP.
"I felt a pain in my leg, but I was only lightly injured, thank God. Our meal was splashed in blood. We then realised that Rania had been killed by a bullet to the head," he said.
Man dies after Jefferson Parish deputies hit him with stun gun
METAIRIE, La. (AP) ? A 35-year-old man died Saturday after Jefferson Parish deputies twice hit him with a stun gun after a traffic stop, authorities said.
Fleming of Kenner had allegedly attacked deputies twice, and was still fighting each time they used the Taser.
Fortunato said Fleming first started fighting after deputies stopped him for driving erratically. He refused to get out of the car, and deputies dragged him out. A records check found that he was wanted for criminal neglect of family.

Four Israeli Soldiers Killed, Nine Wounded, in Tunnel Bombing
Dec. 12 (Bloomberg) -- Four Israeli soldiers were killed and nine others wounded when Palestinian gunmen set off explosives in a tunnel they burrowed underneath an army post just outside the Gaza Strip border crossing to Egypt, Israeli officials said.
``This was a large-scale attack on an outpost just outside an international crossing that Palestinian civilians use to get into Egypt,'' Capt. Jacob Dallal said. ``It was a very large blast. It leveled the outpost and caused damage in the adjacent army base.''
A pair of Holstein calves with roles in upcoming church Nativity scenes rested under the warmth of a heat lamp in a barn outside the Great Falls home of Bob and Shirley Johnson on Monday afternoon. In a nearby stall, another heat lamp warmed Heston, a Nilgai antelope that was to saunter across the stage during a Christmas production at the Kennedy Center three days later.
By sundown, a fire had burned the barn to the ground, killing the three animals and nearly 20 others -- about one-fifth of the animals the Johnsons feature at Leesburg Animal Park, which they own. The fire also destroyed their business office and a caretaker's living quarters, both of which were housed in the four-year-old barn.
This reminds me, there is a new very long propoganda vid on http://terroristmedia.com/nukem/ that shows the insurgents with a shoulder surface-to-air missile launcher shooting down some planes, where did they get that toy from?
