More pro-Palestinian propaganda, barely disguised and repeated in more than a dozen al-Reuters releases I’ve read today: Israel Tries to Kill Islamic Jihad Chief in Gaza.

GAZA (Reuters) - Israel tried to assassinate the top leader of the militant Palestinian group Islamic Jihad in a missile strike in Gaza City on Saturday in apparent retaliation for the killing of 13 soldiers this week.

Islamic Jihad officials said four missiles hit a building housing Mohammed al-Hindi’s office but that he safely fled the area. The attempt on his life drew a vow from his followers of an “earthquake-like” revenge attacks against the Jewish state.

The air raid followed Israel’s assassinations of the two senior Hamas leaders in the Gaza Strip in recent weeks and threats to keep striking at the militants’ upper echelons based in the coastal territory.

The missile barrage came hours after two Israeli soldiers were killed by Hamas militants in a refugee camp in the southern Gaza Strip in the latest in a series of ambushes that has dealt the Middle East’s mightiest army its worst blow in two years.

No mention by al-Reuters, of course, that months have passed without a successful Palestinian suicide bomb attack, as the terror gangs’ top echelons are slowly, deliberately wiped out.
