Hidden behind a disgustingly bland, deliberately uninformative headline is the news that bodyguards for the Hamas terrorist leader Ismail Haniyeh opened fire on a crowd of unarmed protesters today: Palestinian PM’s bodyguards open fire.
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip - Bodyguards for the Palestinian prime minister opened fire outside the Gaza City parliament building Monday, trying to clear the way for him through a group of unemployed workers, police said.
At least one woman was hurt in the melee, police said.
Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh, a leader of the Islamic militant Hamas, was approaching the building for a Cabinet meeting when he was blocked by the protesters, police said. His bodyguards then opened fire to disperse the crowd, police said. Reporters heard the gunfire and saw a woman being taken away by ambulance.
